New year’s eve is a great night to make promises and resolutions to yourself, if you are one of the 97%, those promises will fail according to statistics in the paper today. That’s why a lot of people don’t make any resolutions anymore. It seems that people are defeated even before they start.
Personally, I still make resolutions but they have changed over the years into more meaningful ones. Every year now and I want to help more and more people, and that’s what the idea of this blog is. More and more people are reading, and I’m getting more and more feedback thanks to people sharing their experiences.
This site is not about me, far from it, it’s about the people who ask for help, and I will do my best to help. Instead of responding to people I see out by lengthy text messages, or lengthy chats in a supermarket, that information is right here, and users feedback is vital. More people are registering, but most are afraid to post yet, it can be scary posting for the first time, but once you do it, you will enjoy it and learn a lot, AND benefit from the encouragement of others which is number one in my book.
My advice to you all is make those resolutions about being in your best ever shape, because this year you ARE going to do it, register, take part and I’m thinking of starting our challenge on the 17th January. Contrary to popular belief, I find this a good starting point because by the time everyone gets back to work, schools are back etc, this is the true time of year when people really feel like “getting back into it”!!
Happy new year and promise to make it your best!

OK, I’ll give this thing a shot with you Keri. It will be like putting on AC/DC in your dad’s gym and getting down to business like we did in the old days. I am overweight. It’s showing drastically around the mid-section. I have also been having lots of issues with asthma in the last number of years – been hospitalized for it. The weight and lack of conditioning is exacerbating the asthma – I’m certain. With 3 young kids and a job that takes way too many hours of my life, it’s hard to work out but I need to take care of myself. I’ll have more energy to be a husband, father and employee if I get back in shape. Maybe I should take a “before” picture? 🙂
