Every year, January comes, and so do my big fitness plans.
I tell myself: exercise daily, eat clean, quit junk, wake up early. And every year, by February, I’m exhausted, frustrated, and slowly slipping back into old habits.
It’s not that I don’t want to be healthy. I do.
But trying to change everything at once never works for me.
So this year, 2026, I’m doing things differently.
I’m keeping it simple. I’m choosing one fitness resolution something I know I can actually follow, even on busy, lazy, or stressful days.
My Only Resolution for 2026: Lose 10 kg
That’s it.
Not in a month. Not in three months. Just 10 kg in a whole year.
I picked this goal because it feels realistic. I don’t want fast results that disappear. I want slow, steady progress that stays with me.
Why I’m Focusing on Only One Goal
Every time I try to change everything at once, I fail.
Too many rules make fitness feel heavy. One clear goal keeps things calm. It gives me direction without pressure, without guilt.
This time, it’s not about perfection.
It’s about being consistent in a way that feels doable.
How I Plan to Achieve It
1. Daily Walking
I’m not forcing myself into long gym sessions every single day. Instead, I’m choosing something simple and sustainable walking.
Around 8–10 km a day, or
About 10,000 steps, depending on how the day looks.
Walking feels gentle. It helps with weight loss, clears my head, and doesn’t feel like punishment. I can do it in the morning, the evening, or split it across the day. No pressure to “do it perfectly.”
2. A Small Strength Habit
To keep my body active and a little stronger, I’m adding one small habit:
15 push-ups a day.
That’s all.
It’s a tiny thing but doing it daily builds discipline without overwhelming me. Some days it’ll feel easy, some days hard but it’s manageable.
3. Eating Better, Not Perfect
I’m done trying to eat perfectly.
I’m not cutting junk food completely. I’m just being more mindful.
Home-cooked meals most days.
Less outside food not zero, just less.
Eating slowly.
Stopping when I feel full.
I want food to feel normal again, not stressful or guilt-filled.
4. Simple Lifestyle Changes
Fitness isn’t only about exercise. It’s also about how tired I am every day.
So I’m focusing on small things:
Using my phone less at night.
Reading or relaxing before sleep.
Trying to sleep better so I don’t wake up drained.
These small habits don’t look impressive, but they affect everything—energy, hunger, mood.
5. Getting Support
Doing everything alone is hard.
I’ll try to:
Join a walking group or gym.
Track my progress monthly.
Stay around people who care about health.
Support doesn’t mean pressure. It just makes consistency easier.
What I’m NOT Promising
I’m not promising:
Perfect days.
No junk food ever.
Daily motivation.
Some days will be messy. And that’s okay.
What matters is that I don’t stop completely. I’ll just continue the next day.
So, here’s my promise to myself for 2026:
Lose 10 kg slowly.
Stay active.
Build habits that don’t feel forced.
No pressure. No extremes.
Just showing up most days and doing my best.
It feels doable.
And that’s exactly why I know it will work.
