My philosophy on living a health and fitness oriented lifestyle is to become healthy and stay healthy, it must be a part of your life, essentially a habit; a way of living. Stay active by continuously being involved in physical fitness. Plus, the feeling you have after a good workout or exercising is like waking up in the morning full of energy. Eating healthy must be a part of the equation as well otherwise you are not living a health and fitness lifestyle.
