We know breakfast is essential for a healthy lifestyle yet many of us forgot to eat breakfast. We need fuel from breakfast to get through the day. Skipping breakfast can actually cause you to eat more because you are more hungry when the next meal comes around. Breakfast doesn't have to be a huge meal, it can be something simple like a smoothie or a bowl of oatmeal. Whatever it may be, it's important to starting your day off right.

2. Drink Water

Water is key to a healthy lifestyle. Water is more than just a referring beverage, it is crucial for our well-being. Water supports our digestive health. Water can also increase energy and boosts the immune system. If water isn't your thing, try to spice it up by adding fruits or veggies. Try a Cucumber Strawberry Lemon infused water.

3. Get a good night's sleep

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends.
