    Directors DeskIts the start of a new year and the most commonly used phrase atthis time of the year is MY NEW YEARS RESOLUTION IS ********

    How many of us have started a new year by saying this year I amgoing to do it. I am going to set myself the following objective andby this date youll see I will have achieved it

    Didnt we say the same thing last year and the year beforethat??!!

    The main reason why people dont seem to achieve their newyears resolutions is because they havent worked through themechanics of how they are going to achieve this resolution.

    1. We need to set ourselves realistic New Year resolutionsor goals, ones that are achievable and within ourcapabilities.

    2. Goals need to be broken down into short term goalsabout 6 weeks and then longer term. Plan to strive forthe short term goals first and then look to the longer termgoals later.

    3. Create an environment around you that will allow you toachieve your goals.

    4. Write down your goals and constantly revisit them to

    make sure you are on track.

    5. Discuss your goal with your family and partners so thatthey are aware of what you are trying to achieve.

    In January 2004 a client arrived at a Step into Life Franchise withthe New Years resolution to stop smoking and to run a 10 km funrun by April of that year. She had never run before and hadsmoked for about 10 years. She was only able to train 1 day aweek as a result of work and family commitments.

    After discussing the above 5 points with her we agreed to adjusther goal to be more realistic and achievable.

    She started training one day a week and this became two days aweek as family and work commitments eased. She never ran the10 km fun run in April but successfully completed her first 5km funrun in August 2004 and an 8km fun run in October 2004.

    What started as a new years resolution in January 2004 withcareful planning and realistic expectations culminated in a veryproud non smoking Step into Life client completing the 2006Melbourne Half Marathon.Make 2007 the year that your NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONbecomes reality.

    Health & Fitness

    Article Good EggsAfter being blamed for unhealthy cholesterollevels for years, eggs have now been given aclean bill of health. A review published in theBritish Nutrition Foundations Nutrition Bulletinfound that eggs have no clinically significantimpact on heart disease or cholesterol levels.

    Eggs are a nutrient-rich food, containing 17different vitamins and mineral, including nutrientssuch as omega-3 fatty acids, folate and vitamin E,

    that may be associated with protection from someof the risk factors for coronary heart disease,says dietician Sharon Natoli, founding director ofFood Nutrition Australia.

    Source: HCF fit & well summer 2006 magazine

    So, there appears to be no limit to the amount ofeggs you can eat each day (just remember theydo contain kilojoules so they must form part of abalanced diet).

    Eggs are a great source of protein so they arefantastic snacks for mid morning and in the

    afternoon. At the beginning of the week boil upsome eggs and keep them in the fridge at homeor at work for a healthy snack. The proteincontent will help keep your blood sugar levelseven so that it helps avoid hunger.

    Please remember this does not apply tochocolate eggs!!!!
