Will you be making a New Year’s resolution this year? Well help is on the way, here are some great links for the most common New Years Resolutions:

- Want to lose weight? HungryGirl.com offers daily tips, cook books and recipes to help you still enjoy your food but with fewer calories. Here is a recipe to make a lower calorie version of Hot Cocoa with Marshmallows.

Unfortunately the greatest websites in the world can’t help you if you don’t have the willpower to stay with your plan. According to a New York Times article, four out of five people who make New Year’s resolutions will eventually break them. In fact, a third won’t even make it to the end of January.

Another great option is to do it “Sidewalk Style” and put it off until later. Relax a little through the holidays and then start maybe in February when the pressure isn’t so high. Rather than spending that time worrying, eat that left over candy cane, grab a good book or watch a cheesy movie on T.V.
Sometimes procrastination can be a good thing.
