Fuel.. You cant get this at ARCO!

Great the gas light again, didn’t I fill you up last week?

You don't expect your car to run without gas.. You don't expect a plane to fly with out fuel.. A gas range or BBQ cannot function with out the gas.. We cannot expect our bodies to function properly with out the proper fuel. Think about a fire for a second without fuel it will burn out. So lets apply the same concept here:

Faith (God’s word and Prayer) + Food ( Good fresh food not high in sugar or fat) + Fitness ( working out, getting the body moving) = Fuel

This balance of fuel with keep the fire and flame in us to continue to live healthy lives. It hit me yesterday as I was laying in bed reading the bible. This formula is essential and to take one out of the equation would be foolish and unbalanced. When one is lacking it will start to interfere with the other.

I don't listen to doctor OZ much but I remember him saying this to be true. He said if you are lacking in one area, your body will try to pull in another area depleting something else. For instance if you are eating junk, your body will start to wear you down and you will become tired and start to require more sleep. More sleep can cause you to feel fatigued and thus affecting your daily activities.

Ok so now I have the method, and need to put it in action. I laugh now as I see the formula because yesterday I thought it was a huge revelation dropped from heaven. Haha but today feel like a dummy since it is so super simple. Oh well sometimes things need to be put in lament terms for me to understand.

On a totally different note, I made my favorite weight watcher meal last night it was a turkey meatloaf with cauliflower mash potatoes. Although I wonder if you can still call them potatoes when there is no potatoes in them, hmmmm. Counting points again has been a lil challenge but what I need to kick start my body and get myself disciplined in portion control. If you are interesting in losing weight I really suggest it, no I don't get paid to advertise it but it really teaches you self control. It allows you the freedom to splurge here and there and not feel deprived. So if your tank is filling empty like mine is right now........... Fuel........!

In pursuit of the fuel I need to complete my race,
