Another great video by Dr. Mike.

Who out there is thinking of making a resolution or two this New Year's Eve?

My new years' (where does the apostrophe go there?) resolutions so far are as follows.
  • Big number one - do whatever it takes to lose weight. I'm not sure where my eventual goal is, but I want to lose at least 60 pounds, though 90ish would be better. It all depends on how well my exercise goes, if I can run a marathon, I'll probably decide my weight is okay.
  • Number two - drastically reduce the amount of coffee I drink again. I halved it last year, and I think I can bring it down to just one mug in the morning, with incidentals here and there. It's hard to cut out the incidentals completely, so I'll pick the easier battles first - one cup in the morning, no more, for starters, and maybe even cut that one out as the year goes on. I dislike the idea of being addicted.
  • Number three - join some clubs and get a more active social life. I've become too much of a recluse in the past few years. With my current exercise regimen, I'm starting to feel better and better every day, and I think it's about time I shared it with friends.
  • Number four - Not sure yet. Ideas are quite welcome.
 
Well it looks like you have some really good ideas of changes that you want to make, so I think you're off to a great start. By having a short term and long term plan for each resolution, you're setting yourself up for success! The only thing I could suggest is to start looking into #3 and maybe even sign up for something now that will start in January.

No ideas for #4 - you are planning to make some good changes already, so I think that's a great way to start the new year!
 
I just visited one of the local running clubs, and they are starting a beginners running group in february. A group that I'll be joining! So that should help with number one and number two.
I love two-for-one deals like that. :D
