Coming to understand the need to resolve an issue can be a bit tricky. You may need to rework the dilemma to be resolved with a different approach and subsequently new avenues may open that could get you closer to finding answers. So lets attempt this keeping an open mind to the possibilities.
Dictionary.com lists various meanings for the word resolution. Instead of taking the obvious approach, try this on for size: Resolution as it refers to Optics: the act, process, or capability of distinguishing between two separate but adjacent objects or sources of light or between two nearly equal wavelengths. Now, lets translate that into your desire to lose body fat and get healthier with the beginning of each calendar year. You have to be capable of distinguishing between your current Self and state of understanding and the Self you desire to achieve through resolution which seem to be on equally powerful wavelengths.
It's my experience that you cannot change the Self, you can only come to understand it. You are, in essence, complex so a one stroke approach will only frustrate that which is not understood and being ignored. Pushing yourself into a resolution regimen is bound for failure. This is not because you are unable to achieve health and wellness. I see it as an internal regulating system that slows you down to help you to understand why you are in the position you are in. So resolution can also be thought of as understanding.
Coming to understand why you make the choices you do is extremly helpful. I have been living with myself long enough to know decisions are derived from emotion and then rationalized. In the past few years I have been using a very successful approach called "third thought" to help clients to understand their decision making processes. This allows clients to understand the historical emotions that lead them on their decision making paths in the present.
The easiest way to use "third thought" requires you to be conscious when making a decision about what you are going to eat or drink and whether or not you decide to workout and with how much intensity. Emotions trigger your decisions. What's most critical is that you use "third thought" before acting on these emotions. Your initial response to what the emotin is or where the emotion is coming from is only on the surface and hiding deeper more historical emotions that are in the driver's seat steering your decision making process. Peel back the layers and the years and you may find the roots of that which holds you back.
