Resolving to Evolve
Dec 31, 8:00 am
Most people ring in the New Year by getting started on their “New Year Resolutions”. They resolve to give up bad behavior by ditching all their vices and at the stroke of midnight they seal the deal with a kiss.
Studies show that 40 to 45% of American adults make one or more New Year resolutions. I think the most common of these resolutions are quitting smoking and losing weight. “New Year Resolutions” are always met with the best of intentions. But only 75% of people continue to keep their promises of better behavior past the first week, regardless of what their resolution was. 71% make it past week two, 64% make it after one month and less than half are fighting the good fight after 6 months. What you are left with is the 12% of people that actually achieve their goals. At first glance this looks a bit depressing. However, research shows that people who make resolutions are 10 times more likely to attain their goals. If you never set any goals you have 0% chance to achieve anything or a 100% chance to achieve nothing.

Lifestyle changes are never easy. My advice? Pick something that is attainable. My only resolution this year is to get my pre-baby body back. I have tried to give my self an advantage by resolving to finish something I have started. 2011 is going to be the year I see all my hard work pay off. I am determined to get back in shape!
Most of you know that I have set out to accomplish this goal using a video game. YourShape: Fitness Evolved is aiding me in my New Year resolution and I have already lost 10 pounds. 10 POUNDS!!! You can visit the YourShape: Fitness Evolved website or check the YourShape forums for updates on my progress.
I will admit that these last two holiday weeks have been a relaxing break from dieting and working out but come next week, I am going to step up my game, hop back on the wagon and turn the effort up to 11.
