POLL: Did You Make a New Year's Resolution?

Vote, and then see what your neighbors have to say.

Have you put your willpower to the test again in 2012 by making a New Year's resolution to lose weight, use Facebook less, spend more time with your family or be better at your job?  Or have you learned, like some of the people who Woburn Patch reporter Nadine Wandzilak interviewed last year had, that resolutions just set people up for temptation, failure and disappointment?  Let us know your thoughts by taking our poll and posting a comment about your resolution this year or your firm decision not to make one.  And if you're determined to eat healthier this year, turn to Raquelle Matos's Thoughtful Eats column every Saturday morning for lean recipes- like chicken posole- to incorporate into your new diet.  Best of luck!
