lifestyle choices

How you live

Lifestyle choices are decisions about how to live—what to eat, whether to exercise, whom to associate with, how to spend leisure time.

The phrase often appears in discussions of health: Diabetes can result from lifestyle choices.

It sometimes carries judgmental undertones, implying that outcomes are self-inflicted rather than circumstantial: Don't blame lifestyle choices for what poverty causes.
