90 Days Golden Nugget #3-6

Before I start I just wanted to let you know that I started a new blog just for my 90 Golden nuggets (just in case some of you don't want to read all the other stuff that happens in my life) :0)  It is megz90.blogspot.com.  I will be posting my golden nuggets on both blogs.  This blog will just have extra stuff that happens in my life :0)

Golden Nugget #3  FOOD IS MY FRIEND!!!  #4 NUTRITION IS 80% OF MY RESULTS!  #5 YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT! #6 MY BODY IS A TEMPLE

Before starting my 90 days, I had a love/hate relationship with food.  I loved to eat it, but hated how fat I believed it made me...One of the first things I learned was that food is my friend.  I just had to learn how to correctly feed my body to turn it into the fat-burning machine it was meant to be!  I've learned to eat a healthy protein and then fill up on fruits and veggies.  I also learned to eat every 2-3 hours.  Eighty-percent of your results are due to your nutrition.  If I fill my body with junk, I will feel like junk.  If I fill my body with healthy nutritious food, I will feel healthy!  You are what you eat! :0)

Heavenly Father blessed me with this amazing body that can do AMAZING things if I treat it the way I should.  In 1 Corinthians 3:16-17 Paul says,

"Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
"If any man defile the temple of God, him shall God destroy; for the temple of God is holy, which temple ye are."

My body is a temple and I need to feed it the right kinds of food to help it perform it's proper functions.  I've always thought about treating my body like a temple and making sure not to get tattoos or take harmful substances into my body, but I never really thought about the food I eat and how it can effect my temple.  Now that I've truly discovered that my body feels better when I fill it with healthy food, I will continue the rest of my life eating this way. 

Does that mean that I will never eat a sugary treat ever again?  No!!!  I love chocolate just as much as the next person, but I won't be eating it all the time.  Everything in moderation.
