How are you doing with your New Year’s Resolutions?? I don’t know about you,  but my inbox is flooded with promos and ideas on how to make 2010 the best.  Companies are trying to capitalize on the fact that many people need to lose a few pounds, exercise more, organize, or de-stress their lives.

I quit making resolutions years ago. Instead, daily I try to make small changes and improve the quality of my life. There are times I slip, (I like chocolate, too.) but the next day I strive to do better. My new goal is not to eat pre-packaged foods. It’s easy to reach into the freezer for a Lean Cuisine, but I feel better when I eat real food. They say it takes twenty-one days to break a habit, and I started doing this in December so I should be there by now. Right.?To help myself, I quit purchasing frozen foods. Okay, I confess I got a rice bowl at Jack’s the other day because I forgot to make my lunch.

Years ago, I belonged to a gym where I wore my Jane Fonda look-a-like leotard and danced to the beat. January and February the room was packed, but by March all who remained were the faithful devotees. I donated my leotards years ago, but I still exercise daily. At this stage of my life, it’s the treadmill upstairs, yoga, or the morning walk. But there are times I still miss my leotards, tights, and leggings!
