Blog Post 6: Instagram

For this week I am going to make an Instagram account for something I am actually pretty passionate about and have a lot of interest in. These are some the pages I follow myself on Instagram to help motivate me to eat healthy and work out to live a healthy lifestyle. I find it super ironic that the Unites States is apparently the most athletic country because we always bring home the most medals from the Olympics but we also have the highest percentage of obese people in our population. Obesity can lead to cardiovascular disease, bone problems, cancer, diabetes, stroke, and a whole bunch of other diseases. However this disease is a disease where we can take the wheel and control it and make lifestyle changes if we really wanted to. My Instagram page will contain a lot of inspirational quotes, exercise plans, and food replacements are ACHIEVABLE by anyone. I would want to dedicate this page to those who doesn’t know much about fitness or eating healthy but are willing to make subtle changes in their lifestyle that can make a longer impact in their life. I think Instagram would be a great tool for the youth who don’t know much about living health and it is a great social platform to spread message.  Young teens, ever adults do not understand the idea of living a healthy lifestyle. Many ideas of being healthy is just starving yourself from sweets and salty desires and eating smaller portions when it is really about making healthier choices and being happy. Studies has shown that many people who tend to “diet” always fail because it is not a lifestyle they can keep up with the rest of their lives. The key into maintaining a healthy lifestyle is being able to do it consistently every day. The purpose of this IG page is to give suggestions of what people can change in their lifestyle that is actually maintable. The outcomes of this is that people who want to feel healthier will be able to live longer, change of mood, have enough energy during the day, as well as achieve their health goals.
