The Top 10 Healthiest Physically & Mentally Counties In New Jersey

I am going on a cruise in July, so I am trying to lose a few pounds before the trip. The goal is to lose 10-15 pounds and then gain it all back on vacation. I'll feel good heading into the trip, but I already know I will eat and drink like a pig. That's what vacation is for, right?!

In all seriousness, I was hoping to start the new year healthier than I have been. I got COVID at the end of December and since then, I haven't been 100%. After I had COVID, I had bronchitis and that unfortunately turned into mononucleosis. It was a tough start to the year. Luckily the last few weeks, I have been feeling a lot better. I can't wait for warm summer Jersey Shore weather.
