Every year people make resolutions like eating healthily or saving money, but not everyone can follow through with them. Here are some practical ways to make your New Year resolutions a reality.
人们每年都会下定诸如饮食健康或省钱的决心，但不是所有人都能坚持下去。以下这些实际的方法可以让你的新年决心变成现实。
LOSE WEIGHT
减肥
While going for a morning walk or jog has proved to be useful in shedding the extra pounds, it always helps to plan the weight loss. And if you plan your diet and keep track of it, you can realistically lose more weight, per USATODAY. You can also take help of your friends and family to keep your motivation levels up.
虽然早晨起来散步或慢跑已被证明能减掉多余的肉肉，但为减肥做出计划总是有益的。《今日美国》杂志表示，如果你规划自己的饮食，并进行记录，那你就能减重更多。你也可以接受朋友、家人的帮助，使自己更有动力。
START A HOBBY
找个新爱好
Take up a new hobby to get more out of yourself and life. Learning a new instrument or foreign language, singing or joining a dance class are just a few examples.
找到一个新的爱好，发掘自己和生活的潜能。学习一种新的乐器或一门外语、学习唱歌、跳舞等等。
SAVE MONEY
存钱
Saving a small amount every week is a great idea, but it is easier said than done. For saving on a daily basis, you need to be motivated, have clear targets and insist on them.
每周存一笔钱是一个好主意，但说起来容易做起来难。想要每天都省钱，你需要有极大的动力、有明确的目标，而且你还需要坚持。
CUT DOWN ON ALCOHOL
减少酒精的摄入
Most people know the damaging effects of alcohol and yet find it extremely difficult to rid themselves of the habit. Cutting down, even a drink per week, is a realistic way to start the process. Stick to the resolution by substituting your alcohol with sparkling water or grape juice or by buying smaller glasses to check your intake.
大多数人都知道酒精的危害，但他们却很难戒酒。减少喝酒，甚至每周只减少一杯，是开始戒酒的现实方法。用苏打水或葡萄汁或者买小杯的酒（以控制饮酒量）来代替酒饮，是坚持决心的好方法。
QUIT SMOKING
戒烟
Everyone talks about wanting to quit but most are not able to follow through. Addictive as it may be, you can cut down the habit by making a list of your reasons for kicking the butt and using nicotine patches or chewing gum. RD.com lists a series of realistic steps that may help you start on the path in the New Year.
每个人都说自己想要戒烟，但大多数人都坚持不了。虽然烟会使人上瘾，但你可以列一份戒烟的理由、或使用尼古丁贴膏、嚼口香糖来慢慢戒烟。RD.com列出了一系列现实步骤，以帮助你在新的一年开始戒烟。
TRAVEL MORE
多出去走走
It is always good to take a break from work or studies and travel with friends and family to keep the stress levels in check. If your resolution is to travel more, make a bucket list of places you may want to visit, budget your expenses and stop spending on addictions and junk food and use those funds to travel.
暂停工作或学习，与朋友和家人出去旅游是个好想法，可以让你很好的控制自己的压力。如果你的决心是多出去走走，那就列出你的目的地清单、预算自己的开支、不再把钱花在令人上瘾的东西和垃圾食品上，把这些钱用在旅行上吧！
