Obesity is hard and being fit is hard, you get to choose your hard.  Just remember you can’t be successful while forsaking your body.  What kind of relationships can you have without a body?  What great business can you build without a body?  What kind of impact can you have without a body?  The answer is you can’t.  Everything we want is wrapped up in the human experience and it all requires a body.  The ancient people considered the body a temple, a container for the holy spirit that dwells within each one of us.  If that doesn’t give you a sense of importance of taking care of yourself, I don’t know what will.  Take a look at what you're consuming and doing with your body.  Your daily routine and your health should be a positive impact on your faith, family, fitness, and finances.
