  • I turn 20

    I turn 20
    I will follow healthy diet and healthy lifestyle to live my life to the fullest and prevent diseases, some things I will do are:
    -getting at least 8 hours of sleep
    -cut out some sugar, not all but the majority
    -exercise at least 1 hour per day, gym every morning
    -I will decide not to drink or smoke because addiction runs in my family and I don't want to risk it
  • 20s continued...

    20s continued...
    -I will have a check up every 2 years just to be safe

    -I will also regularly visit the gynecologist
    -I will go to the dentist every 6 months or year
    -I will be aware of my sexual health and mental health and keep them balanced
  • I turn 30

    I turn 30
    The 30s are where I will probably be thinking about children and my metabolism will slow down so healthy routines are important, again more things I would do are:
    -continuing the exercise (1 hour per day) and healthy diet
    -still no smoking, and moderate or no drinking
    -I will start taking better care of my skin by wearing moisturizers, and preventing skin cancer
    -I will get a vision/breast/dental exam still continuing from 20s
  • I turn 40

    I turn 40
    The 40s are mostly about preventing diseases like cancer since my body will be getting older...
    -I will continue to follow a healthy diet and exercise routine
    -I will be more aware of chronic pain and real long term problems
    -I might want to get tested/be aware of the cancers and diseases in my family
    -I am going to focus on my mental health

    -I will still follow the routine of vision/dental/breast/regular exam
    -I would test for more in depth problems like low blood pressure or cholesterol
  • I turn 50

    I turn 50
    My 50s are where my life will slow down a little bit but I will try to prevent any real problems...
    -I will continue my healthy diet but maybe slow down on the exercise not too much, but just to be careful
    -I will start menopause so diet is important in keeping a healthy body weight
    -My mom has low blood pressure so I will work to get mine up but not too high
    -I will be aware of my diseases and work to reduce the symptoms
    -I will continue the regular exams that I did in earlier decades
  • I turn 60

    I turn 60
    In the 60s time starts to really slow down and so does body function but in order to stay healthy I will...
    -take it slow and watch out for warning signs of heart diseases and strokes
    -I will continue my healthy routine of diet and exercise but like the 50s slow the running to walking but still 60 minutes
    -I will test regularly for elderly associated problems
    -I will be careful to reduce accidents and learn personal CPR just in case I'm ever in trouble alone
