We’re bigger fans of calling it goal setting instead of resolution setting.

43% of all people expect to fail before February, and almost one out of four quit within the first week of setting their New Year's resolution. Most people quit before the end of January, and only 9% see their resolutions through the year.

What is SMART goal setting?

Specific- 20lbs

Measurable- Tracking your weight, photos, measurements.

Achievable- 1.5lbs per week.

Relevant- Yes

Time-bound- 3 months
