After many years of thinking that being healthy means being skinny... I finally smartened up! It's not about being in a size 0 or looking like the models. It's about treating our body well. We only have once chance with this body. If we can't do it for ourselves we need to do it for the ones we love.
About a month ago in church, I was praying during invitation that God would allow me to continue with my running routine with no injuries and to help me with my confidence when it comes to outward appearances. All of sudden out of no where a thought came to me.(from God) It's not about me being healthy for me, it's about treating my "temple" clean and holy. We can often easily see the black and whites of what The Bible says to do and not to do. But pass over something like keeping our temple pure. Which to me, also includes eating healthy and keeping our bodies healthy.
Hope this makes sense to you as much as it did to me. Please feel free to add any input to this thought.
Tip for the day-
You can have it all, just not all at once. Meaning you don't have to cut everything you love out of your diet. Just make sure you are having those snickers bars in moderation! ;) I got this from Bethenny Frankel's Skinny Girl Book. It is a great read!! If you want to read it, let me know I will lend it to you.
Hope you all have a great weekend!!
