Weight Loss Resolutions

It’s January. How many times this month have you already been asked how your resolutions are going? Holy cow. I’ve been deluged. Now, to be honest, this is the first year ever where I just relaxed and did not make any real resolutions. I just can’t handle the clichéd failing feeling. :)

But, let me tell you something just between you and me….and the several other hundred people who pass by here daily, according to my stats. In my heart of hearts, I still look at January as a time to sort of start over and I particularly look at it as a time to really try to work on my weight issues again. I used to have no problem with my weight, but then I had my daughter, and my divorce, and two subsequent moves. It’s been a rough road and my health has not been at the top of the list. So, here we are in January and although I do not like to call it a resolution, I suppose it really is.

Now, I know there is no miracle pill. And, if wishes were money,…yadda yadda yadda. When it comes down to it, the solution is exercise and a goal to achieve fast weight loss with healthy diet plans. I will add the stress to the word healthy!

Now, the year I had my daughter I joined Weight Watchers and I have to tell you, it works. I stuck to it as long as my family was willing to eat the food I prepared along with me. Once that willingness was gone, I got too flubbed up trying to cook separate meals and gave up. Still, the diet works and right now Weight Watchers has a 25% off coupon that expires at the end of the month. It’s a good deal.

I’ve heard good and bad things about so many of the popular plans and when it comes down to it, everyone has an individual plan that is right for their body, lifestyle, and desires. The Weight Loss Diet Help site is a good resource for discovering what might be right for you, because their focus is comparing the different popular plans. There are also helpful articles, like this one on how you can do small things to lose a pound a week. Do that for a year and you are looking at a loss of over 50 pounds. :)

So, like I said, it is January and my resolution to not have a resolution has likely failed. Maybe one for weight loss will succeed.
