TOP 5 HEALTH MISTAKES
1) Overlooking the Powerful Pay Off of Active Life - many folke take exercise for granted not realizing the physical and emotional benefits. Exercise will help improve your heart health and physical appearance. Exercise can also help with depression.

2) Overeating Healthy / Fat Free Food - Yes getting healthy foods are good for you and will improve your overall health. But for healthy weight loss you need to balance the amount of calories you are taking in all day against amount of exercise/intensity you use all day. It is all about calorie in and calorie out.

3) Calories -- not all foods are created equal you need to make sure you eating fresh foods and vegetables. Protein (lean meats) must be included with every meal and don't forget the whole grain foods.

4) Not Getting An Annual Health Check or Participating in Prevention Screening - It is critical we get our age appropriate annual health check. Recently, when I found a lump in my breast during one of my home self examination. When I met with the doctor he was mentioned that it was an abnormal lump and the fact that I found it early made it critical in getting the best healthcare.

5) Not Getting Enough Sleep - Lack of sleep can contribute to obesity. Also you are less likely to commit to an exercise plan because you are more tired throughout the day.
