Summary
There are few things as hard as losing weight and reaching our fitness goals, so we want to make sure we're not inadvertently sabotaging our best efforts.
Psalm 119:105 says,
"Your word is light unto my path and a lamp unto my feet"
As we walk out our fitness through faith, we see from this scripture that God is with us. When we seek His word for answers, He's there showing us the way.
God wants us empowered with knowledge, so make sure one of the following isn't keeping you from your goals.
1. You have a daily habit that has a grip on you
2. You think you can't!
3. You're not sleeping
Did you know..
Sleeping an extra hour a night could help you drop 11 pounds in a year?
Sleep controls your appetite:
The two hormones that help regulate hunger—ghrelin and leptin—are affected by sleep:
Ghrelin stimulates appetite, while leptin decreases it.
Sweet friend, God wants us smart! He wants His daughters equipped.
Take the time to know the sneaky traps that are sabotaging your best efforts!
I'm never going to leave you without asking you to get into action.
