Need inspiration for deciding on your New Year’s Resolution? Here is a list of # New Year’s Resolution ideas for you to make in 2024.
1. Drink more water
Drinking water is one of those things that makes everything better. It can help you skin, your mind, losing weight…you name it.
2. Stretch every day
Who can’t use a good stretch? This is a great practice to incorporate into your daily life to gain more mobility and youthfulness.
3. Be more present
Work on tuning out the distractions of life, and live in the moment with the people you care about and are with in any given moment.

Speaking of distractions, social media is one of the biggest. Consider ditching the social media this year, or setting a strict limit on it.
5. Improve your budget
Revamp your budget and stick to it. And remember to live within your means.
6. Pay off debts
Set a goal to pay off any debts you have. Put money aside from every paycheck, no matter how big or small, and chip away at your debt until it is paid off. There’s no better feeling than being debt free!
7. Save money
Is there a big ticket item you’ve always wanted but can’t afford? Or do you want a safety net of cash if things go wrong? Saving money is always a great practice.
8. Cook at home more
Try a new recipe each week. Try meal prepping. Whatever you do, try cooking at home more and reap all the benefits of a home cooked meal.

It’s different for everyone, but I have found that the best way to lose weight is to simply eat less. Eat smaller portions and stop when you feel satisfied.
