Here are some ideas for goals you can make for yourself and intend to do:
- I will work on having a healthy body weight
- I will eat healthy foods
- I will get regular daily physical activity
- I will get advice about family planning
- I’ll get advice about how to plan a pregnancy
- When I decide to plan a pregnancy, I will get help from my doctor or nurse to make sure I am healthy
- I will talk to my mom (and other trusted adults) about these issues
- I will take care of my physical, emotional, and spiritual health so that I can have a balanced life
You have the power to choose.
It’s your body, your future, and your decision. You are in charge of your body and you have the right to feel safe. You can be the one who decides when to have sex and when you are ready to get pregnant. And you can help to prevent diabetes in your family.
