My family, consisting of four people, did the questionnaire. The
aim of the questionnaire was to find out who leads the healthyest
lifestyle in my family. According to the result of the questionnaire,
my father is fiter and healthier than the rest of us. His score is 7 out
of 8 as he sometimes does not get enough sleep because of his job.
He have to stay late to do some work. However, my father does judo
three times a week, goes jogging, and does exercises every morning.
My mother's score is 6 points. She does not do any exercise because
she does not have time. She likes sweets also, so she eats a lot of
sugar. Both my brother and I have 5 points. We does not always drink
2 liters of water. My mother advises always us to drink a lot of water
during the day and a glass of warm water in the morning 30 minutes
earlier before having breakfast. We often forget to take deep breath.
We can take a deep breath whenever it is possible, for example,
when we doing our homework, watching TV, or going to school. Like
our mother, we like sweets too. After taking the questionnaire, our
family decided to take up such habit as taking a deep breath, getting
enough sleep and drinking a lot of water and give up eating sweets
to improve our lifestyle. Our health depend on our lifestyle.
