Remaking Yourself

[Fitness and Faith]

Did you know that everyday we are literally in the process of remaking ourselves? It's true. Almost every group of cells in our bodies is replaced by new cells over time! Some, like blood cells, are totally replaced in about 120 days. Other groups of cells take a little longer, and some groups, take as long as 10 years to be completely replaced.

Take a minute to contemplate what you just read.................

What you are doing today, related to your body, will be directly reflected in the new cells... the new body... you are forming.  What you put in your body, both good and bad, will show in the new you. How you will be....and feel..... will be a direct result of your intake and exertion habits now.

What I am telling you is that your habits of intake and exertion are not just about losing a few pounds or body fat percentage by next month. It's not just about gaining some lean muscle mass or getting ready to run in a charity 5K. Your intake and exertion habits are literally REMAKING YOU! 

If you thought about designing the person you want to be ten years from now, how would that new you look and feel? What do you want to be able to do with your new body? Where do you want to be able to go?

Think about it!       You are creating that new you right now! You are the designer of your upcoming life! So, how are you doing with the task?
