What goals have you set regarding your health?

if you are looking to set small goals regarding health, the best would be to eliminate all the empty calories in your life and study nutritional facts religiously. all you need to do for better health is pretty much excercise, don't stuff yourself, and eat nutritionally whole foods. soda is empty calories. all it is is terrible carbs, not complex ones that give you energy, terrible sugars, and sodium. it's all terrible! stay hydrated. i recommend if you dislike the real taste of things, find a fake sweetener that you like. truvia/stevia, splenda. diet isn't ideal, but it might make the skip to water better. don't drink juice/juice cocktail, those are NEVER good for you. even as nutritional as they have you believe. flavor your water with things like cucumber, lemon, lemongrass, etc if you want flavor. these are incredibly healthy and tasty things! and there are drink mixes, but make sure they are calorie-free. there is also tea, which can be sweetened with a bit of honey (don't go overboard here!) but you should strive for eight 12oz glasses of water a day. it will improve your life tremendously. your skin, your immune system, everythign will function so much better! water is the essence of life! hope this helps. as for goals i've set for myself, i am trying to phase out all caloric drinks, nutritionally empty foods, processed foods, etc etc and form better eating habits :) i'm also trying to figure out an excercise routine for myself.

I can't do this cold-turkey! Like you, I also like sodas. Diet coke to be more specific. I have it with everything, and everytime, even before I go to bed. Early this year, I decided to cut my consumption of Diet Coke. I will not cut it off completely, but I would drink less and less. I've moved on from the can, I just buy the big bottles. And everytime I want some, I just pour myself half a cup. It's going good so far. Maybe in the future, I'll make it less even more.

Good day Dominique25, Since I am already old so I need to consider some points as to how to maintain my health. As I dont want to drink and maintain any medicines when I have reach the age of 50. So as early as now, I am doing some precautionary measures for me to not to drink any medicines at all. With reference to the above, I am doing a daily habit of exercise. As I am doing this religiously in order for me to keep going. Aside from that, I am watching carefully what I eat. As the saying goes, you are what you eat. So I eat foods which is less in fat and I dont eat meat that often. And I am proud to say, that I am indeed happy for the outcome. Have a nice day and wish you a great health.

I try to eat healthy food at least three meals a day, do physical exercises regularly and I try to have good sleeping habits. Go to bed to have good night sleep. I go horse riding, walking, biking and do workouts. Eat vegetable and fruit every day.

I used to drink softdrinks before but now as much as possible I will avoid drinking it instead I will drink lots of water to help replenish my body and it really do help me a lot in my health because I feel clean inside and it really help in keeping my skin healthy.

I realised health is very important last year.So I decided to keep runing or doing other sports.Then sometimes I am busy to forget it .But I will do sports like pingpong ...I find that doing a sport which myself love is a happy thing and it is good for my health .

I have always been overweight, and this year I decided that I would do something about it. I wish to get my weight down to 10 stone, and I am 14 stone at the moment. I have already lost 4 stones as I used to weight 18 stones, so that means that I am doing very well with this and I am over half way there to meeting my goal. I exercise every day and don't eat junk foods anymore. It's good for me, and my entire body feels a lot better than I used to when I was heavier. I hope that I will reach my target by early in the New Year. At the rate that I'm going, I see no reason to believe that I won't.

In my view, you'd better not set too many goals regarding your health, or you may feel it's difficult to achieve them. Drinking soda itself is not harmful to your health unless you drink too much or too frequently. In the daily life, I only set two goals regarding health for myself. One is that do not focus on one certain food or beverage. The other is that doing exercises regularly for instance three or four times a week. I'm quite sure that if I could follow these two rules I could keep myself healthy.

Well regarding my health i would try to stay fit by going to gym and eating healthy vegetable and so far i have avoiding external source of food such as fries and caffeine's, and also i have sodas and stuff that gives you gas a lot, drinking lot of water is best and with some proper food timing, all this so far am healthy and am quite happy with it.

Well I became Vegan and stopped smoking, I think it couldn't get healthier but now I'm also checking the calories, the vitamins on the packs, wich I didn't used to do. It's amazing how we become more aware knowing the calories. I take my calcium in soy milk, brocolis and many delicious stuff. Proteins from soy 'meat', hamburguers and vegan 'meat' balls, tofu. I work out and feel strong in the muscles. Spider Man's Toby McGuire is vegan for example and we can see how gorgeous his body became to star on spiderman.

I used to have a lot of unhealthy food,but now I think the home cooked foods are the best,so if possible,I would go home and have dinner with my family to enjoy the food prepared. I don't always deny the unhealthy food with the flavor I like,but not too much.I want to live as long and as healthy as I can. :P

too much of something is bad. it's not bad to drink soda as long as it is in moderation. but if you really want to try to set a goal and try to get rid of it for a certain span of time, then you need to have self-discipline. me, i've tried not to drink any soda for two yrs. i only drink water and/or fruit juices. if you are really determined you can achieve your goal. so goodluck!
