to live a healthy lifestyle?

For me it's my father and my sister.

My sister is in the best shape of her life and it's because she made a decision to change her lifestyle and live in a healthy way, she has set an amazing example for me!

My father is in his 50s, had open heart surgery last year and is in AMAZING shape and lives a super healthy and active lifestyle. Before his surgery he participated in a body building competition and was the oldest guy there! I couldn't be more proud and he serves as my biggest inspiration to live healthy and active :)

What about you guys?

    That's really great about your father & your sister..
    My mommy.
    She lost 145 lbs doing weight watchers..
    Sadly she gained a lot of it back due to so much stress from my sister.
    She was pretty much raised to eat. My grandmother didn't get food growing up, so when ever she'd buy sweets (which was a lot). She'd divide it between my mom, my uncle, & my aunt. (all of which are extremely overweight) They were never taught to eat right & respect there body.
    To be honest my grandmother still does that.. & if you say no she keeps asking (not due to age, because she feels like everyone has to eat all the time)

    My husband...He and I have both yo-yoed, but his will power is unbelievable. When he wants to be in shape, he will be, No question.. I need to harness his will power and use some of it for myself. Together we will be health for our lives.
