Resolutions are not wishes

Many people make resolutions that they will get fit but then don’t stick with those resolutions. 

"Getting fit" or "losing weight" are not resolutions; they are wishes. You can’t wish yourself thin or strong any more than you can wish yourself wealthy or tall.

A good resolution is a change in behavior that you can control, such as these:

• I will walk 10,000 steps every day
• I will eat more fruits and vegetables
• I will prepare my own lunch instead of picking up fast food
  

Happy New Year! And good luck making and keeping your resolutions.
