I was at the library today and found the book "Look Great, Feel Great: 12 Keys to Enjoying a Healthy Life Now". I thought it would be interesting if I documented my journey while reading the book. I will write a blog for each of the 12 Keys and then let you know what is helping. I will try to be brutaliy honest! To start, here is the exerpt from the back cover of the book:
Do you have any idea how valuable you are?
If you suffer from self-doubt or self-hatred, if you abuse your body with bad food or bad habits, even if you simply put yourself at the very bottom of the list of people you do things for, under the kids and spouse and parents and boss and friends, then you do not understand your own value. If you did, you wouldn't treat yourself that way.
You were put on this earth to spread God's love, and nothing could be more valuable than that. Maybe you never learned your own importance. It took me many years of studying God's Word and fellowshipping with Him before I got even an inkling of my own worth.
Do you not know that your body is the temple (the very sanctuary) of the Holy Spirit Who lives within you, Whom you have received (as a gift) from God? You are not on your own.
God has a great future planned for you and you need to be ready for it! You need to be looking great and feeling great, ready to do whatever God asks you to do.

- Joyce Meyer, from the Introduction
I hope this book will help me to break some of my bad habits! I will let you know what I find inspirational. I welcome you to join me on this journey!
