After taking the self assessment i realize that their are some health behaviors that needs to be changed. I need to eat healthy because i do not eat appropriate servings of fruits, vegetables, gains, protein, vitamins and minerals. I skip meals or i overeat and i know that it is a bad habit that needs to be changed. I do not engage in any physical activities which is important in order to maintain our weigh and health. I do not find ways to relief stress or socialize with friends instead i stay home and eat which is unhealthy.
I have learned that i need to improve my overall wellness by engaging in physical activities and eating healthy. I will start by walking more often instead of driving and i will improve my knowledge about nutrition. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle reduces many health issues such as high blood pressure, obesity, heart diseases, diabetes and so on. It is important that we are surrounded by family and friends, go for our physical yearly exam and stay away from harmful substances. I plan to practice a healthier lifestyle and improve my quality of life by making positive choices and staying away from negative decisions that will affect my health.

ReplyDeleteI can definitely relate to not eating a healthy diet. I would love to eat more healthy home cooked meals. However, my time is extremely limited. I work full time, go to school full time, take care of my three year old son and a very spoiled husband. I have tried very hard to make time to plan healthy meals, but I seem to fall back into the bad habit of eating unhealthy fast foods.
ReplyDeleteI found some suggestions to promote healthy eating habits that I am going to try. They include, preparing a healthy menu a day in advance, making extra chicken and vegetables that can be used to make sandwiches and salads for lunch the next day. In addition, keeping healthy food items at work that can provide a quick meal or snack. For example, instant oatmeal, baby carrots, yogurt, meal replacement bars, string cheese, and fruit. Another good suggestion was to keep meal replacement bars and fruit in a purse or briefcase (Eating healthy in your busy lifestyle, 2008).
