You’re doing great—keep up the good work! To boost your family’s health scores even more, take a look at any B or C answers you had in this fitness quiz and work toward improving them (e.g., more veggies, less screen time, more outdoor activities).
Mostly B’s
Looks like your family is doing pretty well—but you can definitely do even better! Use the A answers in the fitness quiz above as your guide to what you need to shoot for, and see if you can add in another exercise session per week, eat out less, or get out and enjoy more outdoor activities as a family.

The A answers are what you should be aiming for, but take it slowly! Trying to totally overhaul your eating and fitness habits all at once is a recipe for failure; it’s just too much for anyone to handle.
Make one small change at a time—say, eating at home one more time a week instead of going out or finding a local park or playground, even if it’s a few miles away. You’ll get there!
