This year we are considering following Bob Harper's skinny rules. Have all ya'all tried it? The book is fascinating so far! I am feeling bombarded by 100's of theory's and ideas some out and out contradicting each other. I want to find something I can do for life and helps me to be healthy and fit. Especially if that includes losing some weight. The things I am reading so far make sense to me anyway.

Also for new years resolutions I chose to

1. take things day by day more and be in the moment more

2. All of the family will have the opportunity to learn to play the piano. How you ask? From my dear mentor/friend Ms Merrilee Webb and her program. Click here to read more. I for one will be participating!! (so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

3. Continue to exercise 5 days a week

4. Commit to become closer to my Lord and Savior.

5. Fix the food issues...see above...

What are your goals? Do you believe in resolutions?

LOVES for ME!!
