Resolutions

Christmas is now over, in a few days the new year will be here. Have you made any resolutions? Most resolutions we make are unrealistic and we know we will never be able to keep them. This year, instead of making a resolution that includes dropping 50 pounds, running a marathon, and never eating sugar again, try making a resolution that is small yet attainable. Try cutting out soda this year, or tell yourself you will work out for at least 30 minutes 3-5 times a week. Tell yourself you will only have dessert on the weekends, or that you will run your first 5k or maybe the Monument Ave. 10k. If you make a few small goals for yourself, you are more likely to keep them which will encourage you and in turn cause you to continue to make good choices and maybe one day set that goal to run a marathon. Maybe this will be the year that you can make a resolution and not break it and that in itself is something to be proud of, no matter how small it is.
