I read when I can but, unfortunately, I have allowed "life" to interfere. I've had a goal to lose weight for years. Never accomplished it. But this year I changed the goal to "I'm going to play sports and do as many activities with my kids as I can this year". So, I've played tennis with one, hiking with another, Wii Guitar hero with the another. It's been a blast. I'm closer to my children than ever. I've lost 8 pounds in 2 months (and I'm not even trying)! Set the goals for what you really want, attack it with passion, and the "side" benefits will overwhelm you. I really like this one.
