Yet, my mom always insisted that I eat breakfast. She would tell me it is good for me. Come to find out that she was right.

Getting ready for a swimsuit body

There usually is a lot of noise around January 1 about making new goals. A lot of people jump on the goal bandwagon. They are enthusiastic about changing. And excited about changing a lot of things at one time. Some people are pretty good at sticking with their plans and intentions.

Is it something that simple?
