Happy New Year!!

Wishing all of you and your families a healthy and loving 2012\. If there is one thing I learnt in 2011, it is that if you are healthy rest of the things in life will follow.

I haven’t posted any updates on my 2011 resolutions in the last few months. So here is a final recap

- Lose the gut
  - I really didn’t accomplish the goal of losing the gut. But I gained some good habits (eating breakfast, eating consistently throughout the day, keeping track of my weight)
  - I have collected some interesting data as part of tracking my weight through the year. Plan to do some analysis on it later on.
  - Final chart of my weight in 2011 ![](http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7003/6614165827_62482b5daa_z_d.jpg "2011 Weight Chart : Final")
- Increase traffic to Kudithipudi.org
  - I wrote a bit more in 2011 than in 2010, but not as much as needed.
  - Snapshot of 2011 traffic compared to 2010\. As you can see, the traffic has increased nearly 80%.. ![](http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7024/6614388399_a04a15c17f_d.jpg "2011 Site Traffic")
- CISSP Certification
  - Didn’t attempt this at all.
  - Wanted to do this in the last quarter, but things got a bit hectic :).
- Take a Vacation
  - Successfully went on a vacation to [India](http://www.flickr.com/photos/kudithipudi/collections/72157626586487156/?ref=kudithipudi.org).

Overall, 50% of the goals were accomplished. As they say, the glass is half full :). Not bad.

And yes, I am going back to my old habit of not making resolutions :).
