Do you go to lengths in taking care of your health??

I'm horrible at taking care of my health? I hardly exercise, I eat fatty food, I don't take any supplements, and I don't even drink enough water. My Mom's the best in taking care of herself.. She's the total opposite of me. How do you discipline yourself in taking care of your health. I don't wanna act when it's already too late. What do you do? Do you take care of yourself? If you do, what activities do you do to ensure you health?

I never used to take care of myself very well. I was basically HUGE and was very unhealthy. Now I eat properly and work out for about 2 hours a day. My headaches are gone and my breathing is back to normal. Taking care of yourself has a lot of benefits.

thank you for sharing this information. i have been puzzled by this headache that comes over me each time i wake up in the morning. it could be due to lack of excercise. i must start resuming doing some exercises. the light ones will do for this week.

I guess that's why I've been having headaches too!! I don't exercise at all.. 2 hours a day is such a stretch for me! How did you discipline yourself from not taking care of yourself to exercising 2 hours a day?? I wish I could have that kinda discipline.. I'm so lazy! How do you do it?

you remind me that i have gone lax in terms of observing the proper exercises. this is the reason why i cannot effect a good decrease in my weight despite all the observation of necessary steps for weight loss. except of course the observance of necessary exercises. my weight has been stabilized already at 70 kilograms since i have been having a fruit diet from early morning until 10 o'clock. then i take my regular food intake from lunch till early evening. it will be good if i can have the same degree of self discipline as your mom.

Having that kinda diet will be good enough for me! I eat junk food, and I've got a really sweet tooth. That's my main weakness.. Having this discussion really helps in making me realize that I really need to exercise. thanks for responding.. =)

in fact earlier i dont worry about much about health until i lost my health .i used to eat lot of things all the fried items like potato chips,other chips,bakery junk foods all the stuffs and i realised the value of health only when i lost my health .i lost my humger i am having severe stomach problems etc.recentl i read about self healing and i am healing myself .my mantra for keeping fit and healing is diet and breathing exercises.now a days i am planning to go for a 2 week water only fasting i dont it wll be possible or not.Yes I am health concoius I don’t think if u are not mentally and physically fit u cannot enjoy anything in this world .No one can enjoy food if he is having stomach pain.No one will enjoy wearing a gold chain if she has got neck pain.u cant wear u r favourite dress t o t the marraiage of u r friend if u are fall ill in that day.unhealthy situation means u are not only making u r self worry but also u r dear and near ones also.no one want ot be sad and diseased .It is easy to say that I don t care about health.but only when we lose our health we will realize the value of our health.a person who frequently fall ill or will be a burden to the family and if he is employed to the employer also .we are wasting our time and others time also.

Oh, I pity you.. I hope you can really make it for that 2 week water only fast.. It sounds crazy.. is it really necessary? I couldn't imagine going through all of that. You're right, we should appreciate our health and take care of it while we still can and not wait till it's too late. I'm proud that you're still willing to make changes and appreciate life more.. All the best to you.. :)
