As I did in 2018, I’m publicly blogging about my new year’s resolutions (2019: Jan; Feb; Mar; Apr; May; June; July; Aug; Sep; Oct). For 2019, I’ve picked a single word theme: balance.

I indicated that balance was meant to encapsulate the following areas:

  • Food and weight = Revising, this a bit to say I’m trying to have a relationship with food where food is not a problem. ↠ Eh, feeling less in control/in charge and more out of control. Overall, things continue to fall apart around food, particularly in the late afternoon.
  • Exercise = balance means making it fit in my day because I feel better when I do ↠ Ongoing success. I’m continuing to do the NYTimes 9min workout quite regularly and the results are getting noticed by friends and acquaintances. [Original; Cheat Sheet]
  • Friends and family = balance means taking the time for them↠ Ongoing success!
