Resolutions

Hey folks! Happy 2012! I hope you're having a great year so far and getting a good start on whatever your New Years' Resolution is. I didn't really make a resolution this year. My goals are sort of day to day. I do need to drop a few holiday pounds and get into my new skinny jeans. I've started a business as a Beachbody Coach, so I'm taking a few small steps each day to grow that. (If you're interested in what I do as a coach, please visit my website here.) Also, my husband is working on getting his teaching credentials for California so we can start working on moving back there.

So, I don't think I'd really call those "resolutions", but they're something to work on. Tonight I'll be starting Turbo Fire again. I have a small challenge group doing it with me for support and accountability and I plan on doing EVERY workout every day for the whole 90 days and putting every ounce of energy I have into them. I'm more than determined to get into my skinny jeans!

On another note, how is everyone doing with seasonal depression? Has it been affecting you? I know I've been feeling some seasonal affective disorder (SAD) even though the winter has been very mild so far. To counteract it, I've been focusing on my workouts, taking my multivitamin religiously, and getting out and socializing as much as I can to keep my mood up. I'm a very social person, so being around people energizes me and makes me feel good. My introverted husband is the opposite, though, so finding a balance for us is always a little tricky but we make it work.

My biggest problem right now is housework. As I sit here typing, there are dishes in the sink, clutter all over the living room, laundry to be done, floors to be swept and I have absolutely no motivation to do all that. I think I'll be turning to flylady again very soon. I feel like I need someone to follow me around all day and yell at me to do things so that I'll do them. Too bad I don't still live with my parents. My mom can be very persistent. ;-)

So, what are your resolutions? What are you doing to achieve them? What energizes you and puts you in a good mood?
