my new years resolution is to get into better shape. Not specifically to lose weight or anything but just be healthier.

—By gervitsd on January 13, 2011 at 8:43 am
My new years resolution is to get into shape… which is an easy one for most but I have Lupus and excerise can be very difficult.

—By lewisdcaj on January 13, 2011 at 8:44 am
I have several resolutions for 2011. The first and most important is finding employment or making sales with my own companies. Next and as important is to eat better, exercise and try to live a better lifestyle so I can live long to see my children graduate college, marry, and have successful lives.

—By Jeff Kirschenbaum on January 13, 2011 at 8:46 am
My goal for this year is a simple one; Be better.

Be better in exercising regularly.

Be better at eating the right things.

Be a better at taking care of me.

Be a better person.

Resolve to be more active in my community charity efforts, and run another 5 k. I love New Balance.

—By gemini1412 on January 13, 2011 at 9:02 am
My New Year’s resolution is to keep up with my strengthening program by walking and exercising. I have spent 2 years recovering from a bad back. In reality it actually was a result of atrophied glute and core muscles that I attribute to too much driving. Now that I have no back pain or clicking joints, I do not plan to return to that state. And as a bonus I have lost weight and inches – just by walking!
I will walk and exercise to keep my back strong during the New Year!

My New Years Resolution is to get fit (haha- not too original). I plan on doing this by walking my dog everyday for an hour. I think both me and puppy will be much happier and healthier. So far I’ve been doing great and am feeling much healthier and have lost 4 lbs.
Now all I need is some new shoes
Thanks

—By Tara A on January 13, 2011 at 9:18 am
This year my New Year’s resolution was to not make one. Instead I made two lists. #1. Things I am grateful for, and #2. My Wish List for 2011. I try to read over them each night before bed. I count my blessings and if I have any new ones, I add them to the “grateful for” list. If I have thought of any new wishes I add them to the “wish list”.
I try to envision small steps I can take to make my wish list attainable. I pray for them and for help in making wise choices that will help me realize some of those wishes. I sometimes journal about my thoughts and ideas related to those wishes and blessings.
My hope is that by the end of 2011 at least some of my wish list items will have moved to the “grateful for” list.

—By Carrie on January 13, 2011 at 9:21 am

I hope to have a healthy 2011. I had 3 major health issues in 2010 from arthroscopic knee surgery, to an unexpected hysterectomy, to renal radiofrequency ablation to treat renal cell carcinoma. I want to get back into exercising regularly now that I am feeling better.

—By June on January 13, 2011 at 9:53 am
My New Years Resolution is to lose at least 20 lbs. I have to deal with Bunions and Plantar Fasciitis so I’m limited to EEEE width shoes! Only New Balance offers wide sizes with pretty much all their models. That is the reason why I love New Balance!

—By Jeromesm3 on January 13, 2011 at 10:31 am
My husband would love these, he’s been trying really hard to excercise and a new pair of shoes would be great.

A healthy and prosperous new year = a happy new year for me, so I intend to get in shape and make more sales in 2011.

—By 2008homes on January 14, 2011 at 2:39 pm
My resolution is to not worry as much. Sometimes I lie awake at night wondering about about all the what-if’s, and the should haves, could haves, and would haves. My husband and I have three children and it seems very stressful to keep all the balls in the air, but I know that worrying does nothing to help any situation that we might be experiencing. I will try to have more faith that things will resolve themselves as they should, instead of flying into a panic over every little blip on the radar.

My resolution is to seize more opportunities that come my way. In the past, I have been reluctant to try new things. As a result, I realize that I have missed out on a lot of interesting experiences. So this year, when people invite me to go places or do things that may not be on my “bucket list”, I vow to accept the offers. I think that if I open myself up to new possibilities that I might just discover some exciting destinations and hobbies.

My package included one month of Boot Camp fitness classes, a body analysis and a diet program. I went to the the orientation class the very beginning of January and haven’t stopped. I watch my eating and I even work out at home on the days when there is no class! I feel FANTASTIC and have just signed up for another four weeks! go Me!!!

My New Year’s resolution is to like myself as I am and to walk more. Wearing clunky diabetic’s shoes left me tired and they didn’t feel good on my feet. I bought a pair of New Balance True Balance and I’ve walked several hours a night at Walmart’s which has an even floor. If I keep this up I will lose weight and feel better. Feeling 20 at 70!

Move It to Lose It! I have very weak ankles and over pronate as I walk. Know walking is essential for my health and for getting my weight under control, but it is quite painful. I am unable to wear “normal” shoes and can be found sporting New Balance 811′s about 95% of the time I have shoes on my feet (have even directed the church choir wearing them). Happy 2011!

Hello,

Like many others I have a goal of getting in better shape and losing weight. I have already seen a doctor for foot pain and been casted for 2 weeks to let my tendons heal. I also have made some dietary changes to lose some weight. I am now ready to start walking for exercise and need a new pair of shoes. I would not consider any brand other than New Balance as they have offer me more support and comfort than any other brand.

My new year’s resolution is to not make a resolution. I am not starting my year off with guilt or the feeling of failure. I intend on having a positive attitude this year and will instead focus on finding the good in each day!

When I 1st began wearing New Balance shoes 7years ago, it was the brand offered to me as diabetic custome shoes at my pediatrist’s office… I loved them!! For some insane reason, they stopped carrying them. They provided me with some crappy unknown brand, which fell apart in 5 months! …pretty please, give me back my favorite shoes… thx

At 51, what I’d been told for 30 years, that I had a congential back deformity, where several sacral vertebrae had simply failed to fuse when during earlier critical periods when they should normally have done so turned out not to be true. Improvements in medical imaging finally revealed that I suffered from a Grade 1-2 dislocation of the L4-L5 vertebrae at the S-1 level. The steriod injections that had provided with as many as 8 years of freedom from pain earlier in my life no longer “held” for longer than a week or two. Lack of flexibility was not the problem. I could easily put either leg behind the opposing ear, put my elbows on the floor with my legs in a full frontal extension, and similarly, raise my legs above my head, in a way that many yogi instructors and ballet dancers would envy. My options were to rapidly build strength, stamina and cardiovascular capacity, or to have back surgery, something that even my neurosurgeon wasn’t especially enthusiastic about undertaking. He advised that the surgery could be done if my pain was intolerable and didn’t respond to physical therapy. This chief of stereotaxic neurosurgery at the Massachusetts General Hospital outlined the pros and cons (the risks and the potential benefits)of the surgery, but made it clear that if I could tolerate the physical therapy, the outcome would likely be far more satisfactory for everyone involved. While I had to begin my PT slowly, eventually my New Balance Walking Shoes – the brand and style I have worn since my early 20s, when I first found the New Balance outlet in South Lawrence – and my back, foot and leg pain that alternated with numbness began to interfere with my work and play with ever-active toddlers and preschoolers, the fear over the impending surgery was similar to that of stars that shoot across the sky, leaving bystanders amazed and wondering what happened to the shooting stars that had just passed them seconds before.
