Going to Beat the Odds!!!

OK, it's Jan. 1 here in Korea . . . have a slightly massive tummyache from indulging in way too much fruitcake (homemade by my mother, yummm), choco-covered pretzels, homemade soy eggnog, etc . . . but it's ok since this happens only once a year!  I'm feeling pretty optimistic, this weekend I'll do a 2009 stats check and booty pic and start the new year with a gusto sure to carry me through . . .

I read that about 87% of people who make New Year's resolutions give up on them by Feb. 14 . . . I figure if I can make it to Valentine's Day then I've already beaten the odds and may as well push through for the entire year -- wheeeeee!!

Yes, my New Year's Resolution is to do some sort of workout EVERY DAY.  It doesn't have to be a full-on, sweat-inducing, panting, heaving strenuous bout of muscle-straining frenzy, just as long as it's something . . .  

So, today I did 20 mins on the elliptical trainer . . . so am on a roll!  This Feb. we'll be in Malaysia and Singapore so that means the Feb. 14 Day of Reckoning will be spent somewhere on a lush tropical beach . . .  as long as I do something (other than reach for the next ripe mango to devour) it'll work . . .
