Help Me Keep My Resolutions

Explorer Lynn laments that her New Year's resolutions have slipped away, and asks the group if they notice the same happening to them, or have suggestions about how to keep their resolutions. Members make several helpful suggestions including having a 'buddy' or partner in an activity, or to enroll in a class for accountability. Writing notes or signs and placing them in plain sight helps another to remember. The group agrees that when it comes to weight control, not shopping when hungry is a universal rule for staying on the straight and narrow. Establishing a routine is suggested to reinforce a beneficial habit, as is adding a new routine to an already established one until it is ingrained.
