Isnt it fascinating how life can surprise you with catastrophic situations, but when you're
health is at risk, you do nothing about it despite the fact you know it is a problem? Health can
impact your life for the worse because of the lack of preparation. Health is important for humans
because it can prevent heart failures and body risks. People who watch their body have
discipline, leadership, and display perseverance. Keeping tabs on your health is a big part of the
decision making for improving your health status. People can maintain a healthy life by
staying active, eating properly and striving for a positive mental attitude.
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is hard enough with all the bad in this world. Staying
active is one of the keys to a healthy life and a long life. The 10,000 step a day program is not
enough for some who are overweight. Walking 10,000 steps a day will not be enough. The
intensity in physical activity is needed to reach the goal set. Physical activity consists of cardio
and any bodily movement that requires energy. Weight training is also beneficial for those who
are at risk of diseases. For example a common disease around the world is Diabetes. an
estimated 422 million people had diabetes worldwide (Weight loss technology). Life
threatening problems can become worse after a period of time if the person neglects the
problems. When Diabetes is very common in the United States as well as obesity. Fast food and
restaurants are places where families and friends go to eat and enjoy time together. It is also a

Eating healthy foods is one of the hardest steps to follow because people have trouble
building endurance mentally. This starts when young people are exploring food options and
healthy choices. At first, when people start off eating healthier they come across challenges and
failures. A positive mindset and willingness to embrace success as well as failure will pay
dividends (Stokoe and Burke). Success starts with dedication, and a person decides what the
outcome will be. Having self motivation is just as important as following a diet plan. Learning
from failures will be helpful to continue progressing and making better decisions. Telling
themselves not to eat a food that is bad in the long run although the food is good at the moment
is useful information on planning a healthy diet and handling dining situations away from
home (Burner). A healthy diet consists of the correct portion of food choice. Having the same
portion of greens, chicken, and rice could be a good combination for a food serving. Chicken is a
good source of protein and increases muscle mass when weight lifting. Rice can help build
carbohydrates which is the energy source of the body. Green examples could be broccoli, peas,
spinach, and etc. Greens (vegetables) are good for calcium and also supplies folate and
potassium. Setting a diet plan and keeping track of what is being consumed is important in order
to have constant progress. A weight loss plan that can help people stay in control of their eating
habits while teaching them how to eat smarter portions(Weight Watchers). Some examples of
diet planning could be controlling eating habits and just eat a full meal. Not eating something of

circumstance a person goes through. Having a positive mental attitude can make a person have

self motivation to follow the daily routine. And so this will create the lasting habits and positive
mindset needed to lose weight and keep it off (Weight loss program). Maintaining weight is
important as much as staying motivated to keep improving and progressing. Make habits last
permanent as well as building a positive outlook for any situation a person is put in. A positive
mental attitude can help prevent others from having trouble with similar problems. Weight has
been a factor that people choose to ignore by ignoring the obvious early on, but refusing to solve
the problem. Acknowledging there is a problem to begin with is crucial to continue losing weight
continuously.
In conclusion, people can maintain a healthy life by staying active, eating properly and
striving for a positive mental attitude. These concepts can be followed and conquered by
everyone who struggles with weight. Striving to live a longer life by taking care of the body, and
keeping tabs on what it consumes. At a young age, teenagers can start to be responsible and
watch their bodies and especially by not neglecting any life threatening diseases that can be hard
