"Lean on Me as you face the circumstances of this day. When your circumstances are challenging and you are feeling weak, you tend to obsess about how you are going to make it through the day. This wastes a lot of time and energy; it also distracts you from Me. Whenever this happens, ask Me to open your eyes so you can find Me in the moment. 'See' Me standing nearby, with My strong arm extended toward you—offering you My help. Don’t try to pretend that you have it all together or that you’re stronger than you really are. Instead, lean hard on Me, letting Me bear most of your weight and help you with your problems." —Jesus Today by Sarah Young, p. 166

"A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother." —Proverbs 18:24

Habit of Health: Focus on shifting your thoughts today.
If we spend our time focusing on "what we want" vs. "what we don't want" we allow ourselves the freedom to create and accomplish goals. This shift in thinking gives you the freedom to live up to your full potential and pushes self-dout and current circumstances aside.

DAILY TIP: Stand Up.
Researchers at the Mayo Clinic found that lean people spend 2 more hours per day on their feet than overweight people. Participants in the study who stood, paced, and fidgeted burned as many as 350 extra calories a day and were much leaner than those who didn’t move as much. Get up from your desk at work, talk on the phone while standing, and stay on your feet in waiting rooms—the simplest effort will yield an extra calorie burn that may help you shed those remaining pounds.

Eat a low glycemic breakfast every day, and enjoy it within the first hour of rising. Eating breakfast first thing in the morning will start your metabolism for the day, give you energy, clear your brain and you’ll be less hungry at lunch.

DAILY TIP: Be a Home Body.
Constantly eating out makes it easy to over eat and over indulge. Stay in control by fixing your own meal; that way you know you have the proper portions and the preparation is healthy too. For example: some restaurants soak their veggies in sugar water before steaming…yuck!
