I am physically fit. Good health improves the quality of my life. I feel happy, full of energy, and ready to take on the world.
My body enjoys abundant health because I make smart choices. When I make a decision, I think of the initial impact as well as the long-term effects it will have on my body.
My actions are driven by a desire to enjoy a long life with good health. Healthy habits are more than a passing fad for me; they are a way of life.
Being fit is also part of my family’s lifestyle. My spouse, children and I participate in physical activity together. The more fun we have together as a family, the more we enjoy it and the less it feels like exercise.
I include my family in food preparation. We prepare meals that are high in nutritional value. I eat small portions that are enough to give me the nutrients I need without overeating. I choose foods that are packed with vitamins and proteins.
Eating healthy foods on a regular basis saves me from crash diets, which are temporary and produce fleeting results. I work on my health at a safe pace, making improvements to my life each day.
I am conscious of the amount of physical activity I get each day. Every little bit matters. Therefore, I try to insert physical activity everywhere I can. A simple adjustment, such as parking the car far away, can translate into burned calories.
Today, I choose to be responsible for my body. I make small changes to my diet and level of physical activity so I can be fit for life.
Self-Reflection Questions:
