Food To Chew On:

No! No!

John 6:37

"All that the Father gives Me shall come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will certainly not cast out.

Though For The Day:

“The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose I will not, I will not desert to its foes. That soul though all hell should endeavor to shake I’ll never, no never, no never forsake!”

Have a great day today!!! Do your stretching, jog in place for at least 15 minutes, eat plenty of fruit and veggies. Watch the salt intake.. it is hidden in many foods we eat such as hot sauce, lemon and celery.  If you want a little heat with your foods try red chili flakes or jalapeno you will have all the heat you need :), also try lemon pepper on your foods and Mrs. Dash it come in all flavors and salt free seasonings.   Don’t forget to drink water… there is nothing like H2O.

Working Out at Home

From Toe Reaches start position, bend knees to plant feet on wall. Peel back off floor, keeping shoulder blades down, and step feet up wall so body forms a diagonal line from feet to chest. Bend elbows and support lower back with hands; keep shoulder blades, upper arms, and head on floor. Lower left leg toward head as far as you can, keeping both legs straight and abs tight. Return to wall and lower right leg. Continue to alternate until you've completed all reps.

MAKE IT HARDER

As you lower leg, pause and pulse 2 or 3 times, moving it up and down an inch or two, before returning it back to wall. Repeat with opposite leg.

MAKE IT EASIER

Scoot body 3 to 6 inches away from wall so wall supports more weight.

Healthy Eating for Losing Weight

Find a cheering section. Social support means a lot. Programs like Jenny Craig and Weight Watchers use group support to impact weight loss and lifelong healthy eating. Seek out support—whether in the form of family, friends, or a support group—so that you can get the encouragement you need.

Healthy Meal For The Day

Thursday

For Thursday's breakfast, try a balanced breakfast of a bran muffin with yogurt, fruit and a veggie omelet. MayoClinic.com has recipes for many healthy lunch ideas including black bean burgers and chipotle ketchup. For dinner, try a Food Network Healthy Eating recipe of whole-wheat spaghetti with turkey meatballs.
