Health and Diet
Just say no! It's a skill that can come in handy when others offer tempting treats or try to sabotage your weight loss goals. For some, it's politically, culturally, ethically, or socially impolite to refuse food. Practice tactful, friendly ways to say no, like "No, thanks. I'm working on achieving a healthier lifestyle and improving my eating habits."

Fitness:
Resuming exercise following an injury can be tricky. Consult your physician or physical therapist regarding which exercises should be avoided or modified. They will be able to help you with the affected area. They will also be able to advise you regarding intensity and time.
