We Only Have ONE Body



this lens's photoToday I want to talk to you about managing a healthy body not just today or tomorrow but for LIFE! We only are given ONE body to nurture and take care of. One vessel to move around and explore the earth.

Imagine you buy a brand new car! What do you do? You make sure that it has plenty of gas, oil, and other fluids. You keep an eye on the tire pressure, more gentle on the brakes and keep it clean inside and out. Have you just owned 1 car in your life, probably not. Depending on how long you've been driving you probably have had numerous cars yet look at how well we take care of our car compared to our body. We only have ONE body!

Times have changed and our world is so focused on eating more and more and moving less and less. When you get together with friends is it revolved around food? Social gathering, lunch, etc... Or do you go to the gym together or go for a power walk to vent?

Obesity is getting worse and now our children are affected as well. Two out of three people are overweight and one out of three are obese. Losing weight now days isn't just about our body image and wanting to lose a few pounds. Now you have to focus on your health! Hypertension increasing, high cholesterol, diabetes, etc.

This article isn't the fast answer or short time fix! Instead this article is about changing your lifestyle and focusing on behavior modification.
