Do you have any resolutions that you've kept?

New Year’s Eve is almost here, and along with it comes all of those wonderful resolutions. I thought it’d be encouraging to read stories of success from some wonderful jellies.
Do you have any resolutions (made at the start of a year or otherwise) that you’ve kept?
What brought you to that turning point?
Was it a slow realization, or did it happen all at once?
How long has it been since making this change?
What (or who) encouraged you to change, and kept you from turning back?
Did you backslide at all? If so, what brought you back?
How did you change? If you were breaking a habit, did you go cold turkey or did you ease into it?

I’m looking forward to reading some very interesting and motivational stories!
