There’s really no better time to ask questions than on a first date. Here are some of the best ones I’ve been asked:

1. Who would you want to play you if there was a movie about your life?
It’s a light hearted fun question and actually my favorite.

2. Do you like animals?
Keeps the date from feeling like an interrogation.

3. What sports teams do you follow?
Low-pressure question, you could find out he’s in a summer softball league or he was the star football player in college or never misses a Tigers baseball game.

4. Have you traveled anywhere recently?
Does he like to head to Miami to party or visit Europe and sightsee?

5. Do you like what you do?
Asking about his job allows you to assess his financial stability, plus if he is unhappy that will show in other aspects of his life.

Forget what happened last year, 2015 brings on a clean slate. It’s no secret that many of us make fitness, weight loss and health goals that we give up within the first week. So let’s start with a 30-day challenge to better ourselves for the next 30 days.

Drinking more water is one of the best things you can do for yourself. So let’s vow to drink at least eight – 8 oz. glasses of water for the next 30 days.

Water tips:
• You’ll drink more water if you drink it from a straw.
• Add some fruit to your water. My favorite combo is strawberries and lemon.
• Take a drink of water between each bite of food.

Are you drinking enough water? Do you have any tips for staying hydrated?
