Overweight and the Bible.

Yes, sad but oh so true. I'm overweight. I think I had been for the last 5 years. I lost weight when I was about to get married but gained all that weight double 3 years after the wedding.

Now that I am trying to conceive, I know that I have to lose weight. So how do I motivate my self? I guess there is no better way than to go with what the bible says about it. Here is an article I found over the internet which I think is very helpful. I am going to print it and pray that I will do what it recommends.

I don't want to try any weight loss supplement available over the drug counter anymore because as per my OB's advice it might not help me in conceiving.

Things I must do on a regular basis are;

1. WALK for at least 30 to 45 minutes-thrice a week.
2. LIMIT my food intake specially rice as it is very very rich in carbohydrates.


I'm keeping the faith but I know I have to work on it.

1 Corinthians 3:16-17Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you? If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him. For God's temple is holy, and you are that temple.
