However thought it was time to revisit it perhaps

What does being Fit & Healthy mean to you ?
Let our *inquiring minds* know as always :)

You have lots of chasing to do with your kids
Nice you know you feel your best & leep at it too :)

True Hugs. When I first started, I just did the walks, and later wanted to learn about the other methods of walking, but I did not think of the library either. Strange. I thought of the bookstores.

For me it means a few things...teaching my DD healthy habits so that it's part of her life; being in good shape for my karate classes, being healthy, looking good...and more I am sure I can't think of right now.


Good question hugs!

Thanks Nadine,
Yes I too find it interesting ..
Although we mostly agree of course
Yes being a great role model for your DD is extremely important ..
As is you keeping up with your karate :)

Being fit & healthy means ...



  • I can sprint between the car and the door in the rain ... and have the breath to laugh about it when I get there.

  • I wake up in the morning feel rested and alive.

  • I go to bed at night relaxed and at peace.

  • I can sit on the floor and play with kids and still get up on my own.

  • I have the strength to heft the large bag of dog food ... from the check out ... all the way to the car!

It's all about being functionally capable to live my life to its fullest.

All of those are great Colleen,
Gives you an extra good feeling about yourself being able to do all those.
I say makes for motivation as well :)

Fit to me is being able to do what I want to do without pain.
It means not needing to have a knee replacement at age 50
It means not going to the doctor for every little ache and pain looking for a pill to fix it.
It means not having the medical conditions
