Everyone always talks about losing a couple pounds in the new year. Why does everyone want to be “healthier” this year? Shouldn’t they be healthy from last year’s new year’s resolution? Or the one before that, or the one before that? That’s all people really say they are going to do in the new year. “I’m gonna lose 20 pounds!” “I want to eat healthier!” Well I just want to have a good year. I want a year full of happy moments and learning experiences. I want to be able to look back at 2012 and say, “That was a really great year.” But of course, I want a little health thrown in there too.
I already eat pretty healthy. A lot of my 
friends make fun of me cause I like vegetables… but it really is a good thing to be healthy. It makes you feel good and you actually want to get out of that amazingly comfortable bed in the morning. If I eat a bunch of crap then I feel really gross and muddy inside. I usually end up eating a salad or something to wash my insides out. So I’m learning to not give in whenever I get a craving for a greasy burger, some fries, and a chocolate shake.
So my healthy habits I want to start this year are simple. I want to be able to get out of my bed in the morning, eat a hardy breakfast, go to school and actually learn things, come home and do some yoga (even if it is only on the 
wii fit), eat a healthy lunch, do some productive things until dinner (which will also be healthy, and then go to sleep somewhat early at night so I can wake up refreshed in the morning. No naps!! That always screws me up and then I can’t sleep at night.
If I create a schedule like this for myself, I am almost certain it will improve my time management skills and I will get more things done during the week. Not to mention I will feel really great every day. This all sounds awesome, now let’s see if I actually do it.
