What New Year’s resolutions from past years have you actually kept? The only ones I've kept in the past few years include reading an actual book and making wellness visits a priority. While I've made other resolutions, these are the few that I've managed to keep.

I finished grad school this December which was my big goal for the year. I could have taken an extra semester but i decided to rush the process as much as I could so I could focus on my career this up and coming year. So that was my number one resolution and I did it!!

I've completed resolutions having to do with exercise, and also with reading, come to think of it. I should do a resolution about reading again for this year, I've gotten terrible at reading books. I need to rewire my attention span, that's a resolution I would love to keep.

Lost 15 lbs and got into shape!

I made a new year's resolution to clean up my diet last year and it turned into permanent lifestyle changes. I am 20 pounds down, was able to get off my blood pressure medication, and I have the most energy I have had in a decade. The effort was very well worth it.
