2010, I RESOLVE...

I am already giving serious and thoughtful consideration about this coming year and some resolutions for me for 2010. Here they are:

1) Eat whole foods and make better food choices more consistently

I want to be healthier in 2010. Though I have done much better in eating whole foods, whole grains and switched to brown rice, whole wheat pastas, whole grain breads and including fresh vegetables and fruits into our meals every day, and have seen the results in my excellent cholesterol numbers, I want to BE CONSISTENT all year long. I aim for drinking 3-4 litres of water a day too...again, my goal is to be more consistent, since I tend to be more lax on the weekends.

2) Exercise in some way, everyday

In addition to my regular exercise time in the mornings and our Bow-Flex workouts during the evening weeknights, my resolution is to integrate some hikes, bike rides, and shoreline beach walks. By April, I resolve to sign up for Beach Boot Camp classes for the 2010 season (April - October).

3) Become more involved at my church, The Rock

Though we attend services, I want to become involved through a small group, Bible study and/or outreach

4) Less TV/more reading/more writing

These three go hand in hand. I resolve to use more of the time I spend watching television on more reading (which I love, but I have let the "boob tube" rob me of that pleasure) and working on my writing projects.

5) Volunteer/Selflessness

I resolve to give more of myself this year. More of me to my husband, family, friends and charitable endeavors.

Those are my five. Have you thought about your resolutions for 2010?

Good for you! You can do it... Sounds like you're well on your way to those kinds of good habits already.

I was too big of a chicken to make resolutions for New Year's. I don't know why! If we fail we just try again, right? I need to have a little more faith in the Lord and myself. (Notice I listed God FIRST!)
