Body

1. Keep a food journal! Studies show that individuals who keep track of what they eat will lose twice as much weight.

2. Exercise everyday. Even if it’s for 15 minutes, do it!

3. Eat smaller portions. It may take a week or so for your body to become accustomed to these smaller meals, but soon you’ll realize you don’t need 3 helpings to be full.

Debt

1. Spend less than you make. It seems so simple, but many people spend far more than what they make.

2. Cut back on the small things. Whether you enjoy going out to eat once a week or buying a new pair of shoes a couple times a month, cut back! You’ll be surprised how much you can save!

3. Look into a Money Merge Account program.  U First provides a program where you can pay off your mortgage in less than half the time. Now THAT is a new year’s resolution I can work for!

Staying slim isn’t the only thing we have to worry about to live a long and healthy life. I’ve been looking closely at the ingredients of goyin, a new drink that contains a lot of exotic ’superfruits’ and ’superherbs.’ Mangosteen, esteemed as a ’superfruit,’ contains important antioxidants that actually help to prevent cancer and heart disease. If we can avoid those, then we pretty much have already avoided the cause of most American deaths related to disease.

So I guess in addition to eating your fruits and veggies, goyin seems to be a good source of the same benefits.
