Exerise and weight loss No. 1 New Year's Resolution
New Year’s Eve is steeped in several traditions. It’s a time to gather with families and friends and ring in the New Year with a celebration of food, drink, and rousing sing-along of “Auld Lang Syne.” It’s also a time to reflect on the events of the past year, and look at what the new year will bring. A part of looking forward is the tradition of having a New Year’s resolution. In which a person makes a promise to do an act of self-improvement or something slightly nice.
