Every New Year, the number one resolution on everyone’s list is to lose weight. While the beginning of anything always sparks excitement, we could all dig a little deeper and make a stronger commitment to ourselves beyond losing weight to look great. We should commit to being healthy and it should never be for vanity’s sake that we make such changes. Why?–because if the reason to begin something is empty and shallow, usually the commitment to go the distance and complete it is equally so. We live in a time where our people’s health is waning and fast. This is no longer limited to our parents, grandparents and elders. Young people are developing conditions at earlier ages that should not be theirs to carry. Many are dying far too young from the early and often preventable onset of disease. We have the power to change this!
