New Year's Resolutions

I don't make resolutions, but we do make changes in our lifestyle and they always tend to happen after the new year. Two years ago I made the decision to not eat fast food anymore. I did it for health reasons, but it just happened to be in Jan. So now I can say I can count on 1 hand the times I've had drive thru meals. Then last year after looking at our tax statements we decided to do something about our spending and lack of savings. So we started to watch these videos and now we have a little less debt and a little more savings. We basically don't call anything resolutions because that seems too short term, like kicking a habit. We have been trying to make lifestyle changes and learning to think differently.
So, this year's attitude changing goal is again focused on our health. Ryan is going to start weight.watchers through work. With this we hope to add better eating habits and more activity to our daily routine. Wish us luck!
