I always have the goal to lose X amount of weight each year, but this year, I gave up on lofty goals. My goal as I approach 30 (eep!) is to be healthier. That means consciously eating healthier and taking better care of my body -- not just with exercise, but by having a stable skincare routine and taking my vitamins. These are pretty big feats for me, considering I am constantly traveling and spend a lot of time in my car. I always forget to take my vitamins, but I am making a conscious effort to do better.
A couple of years ago, when my hair suffered most from my stress, I began taking vitamins for my hair. I did a lot of research and consulted a hair specialist dermatologist who recommended none other than this Whole Foods Hair, Skin and Nails herbal vitamin. When I take it regularly, I get great compliments on my hair and skin. Biotin is also great for your hair, so I get obsessive and take that in addition to the Whole Foods vitamin. Calcium is extremely important for women and time and time again, I fail at keeping my calcium routine up, so I decided to get these Viactiv chews to get me started. I plan on getting Citracal petites next, because the Citracal was recommended by my doctor and because the Petites makes them easier to swallow. And finally, the One a Day, because as you can probably tell from my diet (which also needs work), I don't really get all my food groups in.
My ammo for being healthy1. Sleep more -- really! I don't seem to ever get enough.
2. Eat better -- less fried foods, more raw veggies.
3. Live simply and stress less. Don't sweat the small stuff :)
What are your New Year's Resolutions?
