The New Year is almost here, do you plan to make a New Year's resolution?

New Year is usually a great time to reassess the past year and to create some goals and plans for the coming year’s events. Everyone seems to have a different approach to the practice of New Year’s resolutions.

    I will probably do like I did this past New Years... I plan on working out at least 3 times a week. I will have an aerobics class 2 days a week... so that should motivate me some! I really want to tone up and get back into shape!

    Once again, I am going to resolve to work out more. Every year I start out well, and then something interferes with my routine ( usually sickness) and I have a hard time getting back into it again.

    Last year I wanted to lose a few pounds and it resulted to now needing to lose several pounds. So, this year I started losing the weight in November. I figure making a resolution last year back fired on me, so maybe this will work :). It's hard with all the good stuff around but I am not over eating because of an idea that I would start a diet in the new year. This way it keeps me in check and with a head start.

    I always want to lose weight but this year I plan on spending more time with my 17 year old son I tend to spend more time with the smaller boys. My oldest tends to do his own thing, so this might be harder than I expect. Although I am up to the challange.
