Project: Sanctify the Temple AKA Get Back in Shape

“Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own;”
1 Corinthians 6:19

Yeah... About that. My body makes a pretty sorry temple right at the moment. Having birthed my second child less than 5 months ago and having seldom broken a sweat for many months prior to that, "Temple de lanie" is in sore need of some tlc. 

I believe the time has come to cut out the junk food and sweets again, limit my portions and reign in my cravings once more. It's time to make this body look and feel like the temple it's supposed to be! 

It must be said here, I firmly believe that weight is only a number. I have a general goal weight in mind, which I would love to reach, but in reality I only wish to feel healthy again and to respect the body I've been graciously blessed with. 

Strangely, after reading this verse again, I've begun to feel like I've graffitied the walls of this holy temple, for lack of a better description. I plan to fast, pray and plan a strategy to reclaim and restore myself. 

In all reality, I'm a bit of a health nut and it's more than a little disappointing to me that I've allowed myself to sink to this point. No mas! Change is in the wind! I can do this! I'm even taking before pictures soon so I'll have a reference when I share the dramatic results!
