Since it's new year, it's a good time to make the odd resolution. 

For my sister, it's to take better care of her health and diet. On December 31st, she bagged up all the baddies in the house: crisps, salty snacks, chocolate etc - and took them to a new year party, then she spent New Year's Day cleaning out her store cupboard of all the out-of-date and unhealthy crap. 

I don't believe in resolutions - they're only made to be broken - but my wishes this year are to:

* do my yoga every day, even if I also do another form of exercise.

* get my weight below 9 stone and keep it there. I'm currently 9.6, which gives me a BMI of 24.1, while 8.3 (a BMI of 21) is the weight at which I look best, so I reckon 8.12 (a BMI of 22.7) is a reasonable compromise at my age.  

* stick more strictly to my SCD diet for ulcerative colitis, which makes me feel a ton better.  

* meditate every day.

* devote a bit more attention to my career - I've always been lazy and tend to prefer to coast.
