Happy #NationalFitnessDay Challenge Tips for a Healthier Lifestyle

Are you happy with your health? Your weight? I doubt anyone is ever 100% satisfied but wouldn't it great to be at least 90% or higher? 

I've been on a healthier lifestyle journey for over 2 1/2 years and if I would have asked myself those questions before I started I would have answer ... 

1. NO I am not happy with my health. I was on the verge of needing high blood pressure meds and diabetes meds.
2. My weight was the highest I had ever send it and it was going up and up and up.
3. I would have said that I was 0% happy with my healthy and weight.

TODAY 2 1/2 years later here are my answers....

1. I am SO HAPPY with my HEALTH! I've never felt or been healthier in my entire life.
2. I'm 100% satisfied (ok really like 99%) with my current weight. It is the lowest in 20 years and I'm buying clothes in sizes that I wore before I was married 21 years ago. I am NOT where I think my weight should be but work on it daily.
3. I am 100% satisfied with my health and weight which is an ongoing journey to keep it there and to improve daily
