For many people, taking the first steps toward a healthier lifestyle is all about weight loss or the size of their jeans. But once you start reaping the added benefits that come from smart changes, you'll wonder how you lived any other way! Here are the top 10 reasons being a strong, healthy, and balanced woman is well worth the effort.

01

You wake up naturally.

Who knew I didn't need an alarm clock blaring in my face to get out of bed?

02

You're able to play with your kids without taking a break.

And they freaking love it.

03

You fill out your wardrobe better than ever.

Yeah, you do.

04

Your endorphins are through the roof.

You're almost Leslie Knope happy.

05

You can defend yourself if necessary.

These basic self-defense moves are a helpful start.

06

You can do you things you once thought impossible.

Everything from opening tight lids of jars in your pantry to escaping from prison like Piggy.

07

Your anxiety and stress levels stay on the down-low.

Instead of reaching into the fridge or freaking out, you know heading to the gym or yoga makes everything feel a little easier.

08

You don't feel like this on moving day.

You can lift, pack, and move with ease. It simply feels like a bonus full-body workout.

09

You're (even more) confident naked.

Dance moves optional.

10

You're working with more energy than ever before.

I could get used to this.
