Food To Chew On:
Monday – The Greatness of Making Others Great
Philippians 2:5 (NKJV)
 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus
Thought For The Day:
A self-made person worship his or her maker!!
For the next two week we are going to start A well-planned, 1,300-calorie meal plan can give you all the nutrients you need while helping you reach your weight-loss goals. Planning your meals in advance allows you to shop for all the ingredients you need for healthy, low-calorie meals, so you do not resort to fast food in a pinch. A meal plan can also help you ensure minimal waste, because you buy only what you need. For a 1,300-calorie day, plan for three 350- to 400-calorie meals and two 80- to 125-calorie snacks each day.
God has given us this Moment to worship and shine in His Glory.
 Have a Glorious Monday with HHWN!!! J
Exercise For Osteoporosis to Help Slow Bone Loss
Arthritis Exercise Can Be Safe For Seniors and the Elderly
Arthritis exercise is not difficult but you do need to know what causes arthritis and to follow some simple guidelines before beginning.
Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), is an inflammation of the synovial membrane which surrounds the joint. Joints are filled with synovial fluid which protects and lubricates during movement.
These joints loose range of motion and can become impaired due to weakening of the ligaments and tendons especially in the wrists, hands, feet and ankles.
  Osteoarthritis(OA) is also known as degenerative joint disease and results in gradual loss of the joint cartilage. 90% of Americans will have some symptoms of OA by age 40.
Your doctor should go over your exercise  plan with you before starting a program and only then should you begin gently and carefully.
Arthritis exercise precautions
• Gently begin range of motion exercises that take your arms and legs through their full range daily.
• Don't  trade a daily activity like gardening for exercise. It won't take you through your full range of motion.
Here’s a helpful tip… Whatever you do don’t stop moving around… when you have arthritis if you just stop moving and lay around your joints will get stiff and it will make it harder to do your daily activities. So Keep Moving!! J
Run the World with a Treadmill and Google Maps
Run the World On Your Treadmill and Visualize It!
iFit Live Google Maps ViewNow, this is where it gets interesting.  Not only can you simulate walking or running anywhere in the world, you can also visualize it.  On the lower price models you would need to place a laptop or Smartphone on the console.  You log into to your iFit Live account, click on the Icon for Google Maps and you can access the various visual modes of your route.  If you are running down a route that Google has street views, you can get an actual photographic view of the street as you run.  If there is no street view, you get the animated earth view.  I have an iFit Live treadmill and have traced routes within my neighborhood.  Not only did I experience the sensation of going up and down the hills, but I saw familiar sites as I ran.
In addition to creating your own customized route, you can access a library of routes like Central Park, Chicago Lake Front, Avalanche Peak in Yellowstone and the Monterey Coastal Trail.
A Healthy Menu For 
Day One
Start with a serving of high-fiber, low-sugar cereal, 1 cup of skim milk and 1 cup of raspberries. For lunch, combine 1/2 cup of cooked whole-wheat pasta and mix with 1/2 cup roasted chicken breast, 1 tbsp. of light mayonnaise and chopped celery. Have an apple on the side. At dinner, try 4 oz. of flank steak with two corn tortillas, 1 cup shredded cabbage and a slice of avocado. For snacks, have about 20 whole almonds and later, a cup of nonfat yogurt with half a kiwifruit.
