Do you take your health seriously? Are you a fitness buff? Do people who are lazy and ignorant about their health irritate you?

Most people in my family have a diseases.
They are in the range of;
Diabetes,
Heart-attack
High cholestrol
Tuberclosis
High blood pressure.
Chain smokers and so are their children
being exceesively fat

My grandma died immediately after she gave birth to my mother. My mother has gray hair since she was 9 and brown spots all over her face after she gave birth to me and my brother. My aunt has a hard time conceving children and one of them died prematuarally. My other aunt had a difficult time of having boys and the first boy got killed in a train accident.

A few months ago, my aunt has an internal bleeding of the vein of her brain. She couldn't move much and is still recovering. My father is a diabetic and my mother suffers from High blood pressure and High Cholestrol. My mother's distant uncle and his son are chain-smokers, and the uncle put a lighted cigarette in a baby's mouth!!

All these troubles have cuased me to take better care of myself. Being skinny is the only thing I could improve on. If i took out coke, I can improve a lot. Every morning and afternoon, i exercise by doing sit-ups, strecthing, and lifting my legs. I noticed that by dancing to music especially videos and by doing sit-ups, a lot of weight can be lost.

damn, suby, so I guess you have lots to live up to!

Well...I smoke...and I haven't seen a doctor in over 10 years. Guess I flaked out on that one.

I've got nothing as intense as Suby but some of the same things in my family. While I'm not in perfect health, I'm always trying to take better care of myself. In works in phases though. Like last year at this time, I could give a shit.

until i get sick, i could give a shit...
if it aint broke, fuck it!!!

Oh, hell yeah. You don't realize what you have until it goes bad. Most people take their health for granted. If by chance you visit a hospital from time to time you'll find it extremely disheartening about the condition many of them are in. People are in extreme P A I N from various things. And it could happen to you (meaning anyone) at any time. And for no known reason.


No. All I can do is pray for 'em if they don't want to put in the effort for better health.

See? See?

I DO!!! I exercise regularly though I hadn't in years, really being dedicated & incorporating it into my life now. They say you can only rely on your genes until you're 30 - just turned 31, time to work out!

I'm conscious about what I eat - fat, carb & sugar intake.
I still have to work on getting enough rest, taking my vitamins & drinking more water.

I think a lot of people wait until it's too late to take care of themselves, it's pretty sad. I hope I don't have something lurking that I'm not aware of... :O



Speaking of health (sort of), all you coffee drinkers out there - do you ever rinse your mouth after you've had coffee? I'm not a coffee drinker but I'll have a mocha a few times a year. Coffee leaves a TON of residue in your mouth, it's REALLY disgusting - if you've ever rinsed right after coffee, you know.

Do coffee drinkers rinse regularly? If not, have mercy on whoever you're kissing!!

And if you smoke on top of that??!!!

I do. I'm sick right now. And I don't wanna be. Someone come take care of me.

I'm eating a bowl of cinnamon toast crunch with a spoon in one hand and a cigarette in the other.


No way, man.

I've got diabetes, asthma, and I don't eat enough vegetables. i bu them, but they usually spoil before I can eat them. Cranberry juice and sauerkraut daily keeps you cleaner, though. That sentence sounds really gross.

Yes,most definitely because without your health you can't prosper. You must take care of yourself and avoid things in excess. My only crime is not getting enough rest. But I'm getting better lately with it. I say take those vitamins if you don't eat right and stay away from drugs.

People's body types are way too diverse to simply call someone lazy because they are overweight, or to say that someone doesnt take care of themselves because they are not heatlhy.

It's a balancing act for many people to try their best to maintain themselves in what little time they may have outside of their jobs, schooling, family, and other responsibilites.

Society scorns people enough for not having a 6 pack, a full head of hair with not a single grey in it, and blemish free skin, etc...

Many times the stress created by these attitudes is the main culprit.
