Food To Chew On:

Friday – Hope From A Hard Saying

John 6:53-54

Jesus therefore said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood, you have no life in yourselves. “He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.

Thought For The Day:

Christ offers us the full impact of His life, ministry, and message. His death on the cross provides us with the forgiving power of His shed blood. But most important of all , He give us Himself in the power of His Spirit.

I know you always hear “Thank God It’s Friday”… but every day we should give God the praise and glory for another day we have never seen before.

If the weather permits it is a good time to go for a walk … enjoy the fresh air and meet some new people along the way that is always good and smile more. We are in the internet era where there was a time we held conventions and now everyone is texting, it takes away from that person touch.. we need to get back to.  

Here is a helpful hint for the day plan you meal maybe a night before and think of healthier ways in making your meals. If you cook your meals subtitle oil and use low sodium broth with your grains and meat… remember little changes make the biggest results and you will feel better. J Eat plenty of fruits and veggies and get your water intake… hydrate, hydrate!!!

Working Out at Home      

Lie on back, butt against wall, knees bent, and feet planted 3 to 4 feet up wall. Peel lower and mid back off floor and cross left ankle over right knee. Squeeze butt and front of thigh to press left knee toward wall. Do 20 pulses, then lower body and repeat on opposite side.

MAKE IT HARDER
As you press knee, engage abs to lift and lower hips a couple of inches with each rep.

MAKE IT EASIER
Do the move with feet and back on floor.

Healthy Easting for Losing Weight

Slow and steady wins the race. Aim to lose 1 to 2 pounds a week to ensure healthy weight loss. Losing weight too fast can take a toll on your mind and body, making you feels sluggish, drained, and sick. When you drop a lot of weight quickly, you’re actually losing mostly water and muscle, rather than fat.

Healthy Meal For The Day:

Friday

The American Dietetic Association says a person should shop the four corners of the grocery store: produce aisle for fruits and vegetables, bakery for whole grains, meat department for lean proteins and dairy case for low-fat milk. For breakfast, a boiled egg with two slices of whole-wheat toast and a glass of low-fat milk will start anyone out on the right foot. For lunch, a person should try a tuna sandwich made with low-fat mayonnaise on whole-wheat bread, topped with sliced cucumbers, and a fresh apple. For dinner, a bean burrito on a whole-wheat tortilla with low-fat cheddar cheese and salsa, brown rice, and a tossed salad with low-fat salad dressing is a delicious way to end the day.
