In life, there is nothing more important than taking care of your health, so staying fit and healthy should be your number 1 priority. With these 25 little tips, you can get the motivation you need to enjoy a new and renewed healthy lifestyle. 1. If you feel like you want to eat, but are not sure if you really are hungry, ask yourself if you would like to eat an apple. If the answer is "no," you are probably more bored than hungry. 2.
