New Year’s Resolution - Weight Loss

Written by Amanda on January 13, 2009 – 5:39 am -

Of course, probably the most common New Years Resolution is to lose weight. Well, I decided not to make that one this year, because I can make some better resolutions that will help me lose weight in the long-run. These are some tips that I have collected from different places on how to actually accomplish those New Years Resolutions.

  1. Make attainable goals (don’t make a resolution you cannot accomplish).
  2. Don’t give things up, try replacing them. Instead of “I am not going to eat unhealthy food” - try “I will eat more fruits and vegetables.”
  3. Make your resolution something you want to do. (If you hate going to they gym, make a resolution to play tennis, or take the dog for a walk).
  4. Make your goal measurable (Take the dog for a walk 3 times per week).

  5. Focus on replacing or changing habits that contribute to weight gain, instead of the weight itself
  6. Stay Positive - if you make it something fun, you are more likely to accomplish your goals. The last thing you want is more weight on your shoulders (literally and figuratively).
