We are well into the first week of 2010. On my first day back at work I heard so many people (mostly women) talking about “being good” in the new year. They were referring to their eating habits, in case it wasn’t obvious 
I have to admit after my overly indulgent Christmas celebrations, I feel the same. I think it is natural though, simply because you probably have been going to more social activities, getting less sleep, possibly stressing about buying presents or about travel plans, etc. All of these things invite more lenient or excessive eating habits and more drinking.
I am not saying there is anything wrong with this – it is a really fun time of year for many people. I certainly enjoyed it! But, it can leave you feeling sluggish and unmotivated.
So, what is your New Year’s Resolution? If it has to do with diet, nutrition, fitness, or just general health, you are certainly not alone.
I have made a commitment to get back into a more regular fitness program…despite the freezing weather. I did a 10k back in October and then haven’t done much since then. I mean I’ve done a bit of running, a few weight sessions, and had some gym time, but nothing very consistent. Now is the time to get back into it.
If your resolution is not fitness or health related, that’s fine too. There are lots of things that are good to commit to in the new year. Whatever it is, stick with it! Don’t be a statistic – one of the people who keeps their resolution for 2 or 3 weeks and then gives up.
And I would love to hear your resolutions if you’re willing to share!
To your health,
Kimberly
