Many of us start each year off with resolutions. For many people, these resolutions include getting healthier whether it be to lose weight or to get fit or both.
Although I don’t personally make resolutions for myself, I do often find the new year to be a good time to restart my habits and to make new routines for myself. Many of these new routines include health related goals. This year, I have started to drink more water, snack less at night and to restart my exercise routine.
One of my goals is to start using weights in my weekly exercise routine. Up until now, I have been scared of weights, but it is time to bite the bullet and give them a try! Canadian Tire has a good selection of weights as well as other fitness items including Yoga items.

I want to lose the extra weight and learn to wake up earlier
I don’t usually have new year’s resolutions but this year I would like to lose some of the weight from just having a baby.
I did this year. To be healthier (of course) and to be a more present wife and mother.
I don’t make resolutions as to me they feel like something I have to do rather than with goals where I feel like it is something I want to do.
I do set short term goals for myself often. My latest is to 2 weeks of low carbs to see if it helps my well-being.
Mine, is to continue to be grateful.

I didn’t make any resolutions this year, but my goal is to make healthy eating choices each day.
I don’t normally make resolutions. However, I was laid off my job just before Christmas which has entirely changed my perspective and focus going into 2013. I have made a resolution to be more present and live each day to its fullest. You never know what tomorrow will bring.
I would just like to eat healthier and exercise more to be in shape.
I started an exercise program including Zumba. I have lost over 10 pounds and that is encouragement to keep me going.

I don’t make resolutions for new years but i do like to set goals..my latest goal is to loose weight and get in shape.
Eat less packaged food. Lots of homemade veggie soups with no added salt, slow cooker dinners and gree smoothies.
I’ve given up french fries! So far, so good!
Goals: — I want to lose 10 more pounds, exercise more regularly and eat healthier
I resolved to incorporate more balance into my life and stop prioritizing work so much
My goal is to stick with my running 2 times a week.
I go to a nutritional class on Friday mornings. It is called Why Weight. It is more of a healthy lifestyle class. I have lost 30lbs in the last year simply by eating differently. Smaller portions and healthier food choices.

I like to make goals – for some reason, it seems more achievable than a resolution! This year’s goal, is to spend less time stressing about work related things, and focusing more on family.
i try to cut down on sugar!

to enjoy life more and stress less
I didn’t make any resolutions.
I ususally make resolutions but rarely follow through with them. This year my goals are to pay off all my debt and to do more home cooking.

I made 3 this year….
1. Work less – I reduced my hours at work so I’m done when my DD6 is finished school. I still have to make up the time but I do it after the kids are in bed.
2. Spend more time on family – whether it’s playing a game or doing something fun. My girls will only be young once.
3. To become more healthy. I used to be extremely fit but kids, work, activities etc have made ME time almost non-existent. So becoming more healthy in body, mind & spirit.
my goal: To spend more time with my kids
I make a goal list each year.
I make goals – this coming year one of the things I have in my goal list is to be healthier by making better food choices and increasing my fitness.
I don’t really make goals or resolutions…I just see each new year as a new opportunity to improve.
I did actually this year!
My goal is to incorporate the “green smoothie” and drink less coffee!
this year i did not make resolution…

To eat right and exercise more
i am trying to exercise more and drink more water
when one of the grandchildren make a mess it stresses me out, after some thinking i realize its only a mess and can be cleaned easier than stressing.
I try not to so i dont get down on myself
I committed to myself to be healthier and to stick with my my new diet and exercise routines. For once I have picked a simple diet and totally doable exercise routine. This year its about feeling good not about a perfect size.
I try to make it more of a goal than a resolution to have a healthier lifestyle.
Cook healthy meals and swim at least once a week
I plan to drink more water rather than coffee!
my goal is to loose at least 50lbs by summer
I don’t usually for fear of letting myself down, but I want to participate in a zombie marathon this year, so I have been exercising daily and eating healthy! 🙂
I don’t make resolutions, I try to live everyday in a healthy way not just for a set time to achieve and “new year’s resolution”. I do set mini goals for myself though, drinking enough water 1 week, 20 minutes of time outside another week, etc.
To get back to my pre-baby weight
i make goals, resolutions are so yesterday and i have failed at them everytime. i set short goals…right now i’m trying to eat healthy and so far i’ve been pretty good with it!

Yes all the time especially for health and fitness as it’s a big part of my life. This year I plan to buy more local grown food and grow more of my own.
I don’t make resolutions, I never follow through with them. Why set yourself up for failure when you know you won’t/can’t achieve the goal.
I just want to be overall better. Sticking to my budget is a big one this year!
I try to drink more water
I make goals.. my goal is to get myself into shape, stress less and become more organized in all aspects (work, home)
