1. You can eat what you want, just not as much as
you want! My biggest problem has always been portion control. I think the
hardest part about what I eat, is that I am getting older. Not being a
collegiate athlete that can eat whatever they want, has taken its toll on my
body! So, this year when I don’t have the options of eating healthy, I need to
practice portion control.
2. Exercise is good in overall health, but it’s
more about how you eat! I love to exercise, and I love the feeling I have
after, but that’s not the biggest piece of overall health. Keep in mind that
your body can only handle what it is trained to, you have to build your
workouts up to a high level; you can’t start there.
3. My body is a temple! God loves us exactly the way we are. He is not concerned with our weight or clothes size; He is concerned about our heart. Health and fitness are good, but not to the point of it becoming an idol that is affecting our relationship with the Lord. We should be more concerned about feeding our spirit hunger…
“He humbled you and let you be hungry, and fed you with manna which you did not know, nor did your fathers know, that He might make you understand that man does not live by bread alone, but man lives by everything that proceeds out of the mouth of the Lord.” Deuteronomy 8:3
I’m sure you already know most of these things to be true, but this is what has been on my mind this week. I have been doing an HerbalCleanse through AdvoCare and have seen great results. This is just a reminder that I give myself to stay on track with what really matters!

Good health should always be the goal I think - not just losing weight or trying to fit a certain mold. We have to love ourselves as we are really.
And be the best version of ourselves we can be.
