European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - January 19, 1992, Darmstadt, Hesse                                I our cites trying to stay firmly Resolute this aging Yea Janet Farley guest columnist the a a new of the new year is old news by now and what about those darn resolutions you remember them. To get in shape to lose weight to buy a new wardrobe to Stop smoking and to really follow through with them this year. What happened to them take that Resolution to get in shape. Did you notice How crowded the Post gym was right after Jan. 1? hordes of Arnold Schwarzenegger wannabes sporting the most in clothes vied for their chances on the Stair climber. Aerobics classes were packed with jumping sweating bodies All suffering from the a i can to believe i ate so much syndrome. I stopped by the gym yesterday. I even spotted someone openly wearing a generic Brand sneaker and a pair of ripped sweats. Shocking. How about that Resolution to lose weight january is probably the busiest month for the Post dietitian. People want to make sure there Isnit a medical breakthrough that will shed those pounds by wishing them away. For the record i am assured this Hasni to happened yet. Bookstores Are in the thick of the Resolution Rush of 1992. A look like Vanna in 21 Days a a firm your Fanny now a Etc., Etc., Etc. I still secretly Hope to trim a few inches off my Fanny grow three inches taller and increase my cleavage a just by buying books that say i can. And How about that stylish new wardrobe As always this Resolution presents a dilemma. Are you supposed to wait until after you lose that 10 pounds or is it of to buy in january decisions decisions decisions. As most military groupies already know if the Post Exchange has it in your size. Buy it now. Then there a the smoking thing. In be seen this Resolution turn harmless caring basically very Nice people into raging drooling monsters who cannot exist without Jolly ranchers. Suffice it to say this is a hard one. Done to despair if you be pushed aside those 1992 resolutions already. You re Only human and its quite of to blow them off. Too often we try to change too much too fast. Not seeing those immediate results can be depressing. I think next year ill opt for a new strategy. Instead of trying to change All the horrors in my life maybe ill concentrate on one at a time. If that does no to work maybe ill just resolve never to make resolutions again. Janet Farley is a military family member in Stuttgart Germany.
