Every day I hear people complaining about their illness, their weight, etc. and some (not all) of these people just don't and never have taken good care of their body.

They take better care of their cars.

They smoke all their lives and now they are complaining about not being able to breathe and being on oxygen, or they eat unhealthy foods and complain because they are fat and stiff and get out of breath when they walk across the room.

I myself am addicted to pasta and bread and need to curb my bad habits before I end up in the same condition. I have never smoked, or drank or done drugs though.

I need to break some of my bad habits and get healthy, how about you?

I never do drugs or smoke, but I do drink. I've been eating much better these past few years and have been hitting the gym 3 to 4 times a week, so yes I would say I take care of myself.

I eat healthy, sometimes.
I work out, sometimes.
I like to drink.
Smoking, not so much.

I've always been pretty healthy -- I've never smoked a cigarette in my life, and I quit all drugs and alcohol at 22 -- and I've always been active in sports, so I think I've held up pretty well.

But last year's car accident was sort of a wake-up call -- and I started paying more attention to the day-to-day things I need to do in order to continue to be able to do the things I like doing.

So, other than my ungodly Pepsi addiction and the 483 Ibuprofens I take every day, I'd say I'm doing all right....!

I work out, and have a balanced diet... My only two addictions R too much coffee and too much sex, but since my separation the second one is not a problem.

coffee is bad for teeth, but I hear that too much sex is actually good for the heart... so I may want to consider that as a part of my workout routine... now I just need a partner to workout with.

Its funny how everyone seems to have some kind of addiction. Pepsi is a very bad one. A single soda can give you lots of acid. If your body is always acidic, it is prone to disease of all kinds.

Well I made a small attempt of taking care of myself and then got into a nasty car accident in 2003 in which I had severe injuries to my knees, back, and neck; my doctor said I wouldn't walk again. After 4 long years or recovery; I realized just how fragile a human body is. So, now I exercise a lot; eat right, and even cut back on the drinking. So, I won't take my body for granted after coming so close to ending up in a wheel chair.
