What are Calories and How to Burn Them

October 13, 2020

I hope you are having a terrific Tuesday (or whatever day you are reading this)!
I am so excited to share some healthy inspiration with you this afternoon(or whatever time of day you are reading this)!
After all, what is life without having people to share it with?
We’ve all probably heard this one: 3,500 calories make up one pound of fat.
By this logic, we can lose a pound of fat per week if we have a calorie deficit of 500 calories per day for 7 days. (There’s so much more to it than this, but more on that later).
Similarly, we can gain 1 pound of fat if we take on a surplus of 500 calories per day for a week.
Calories are simply units of energy that you consume (eat) and expend (burn).
So what does that like like?
500 calories could be swapping a donut and a sugary coffee for an apple and wheat toast with almond butter.
It could be drinking water with lemon instead of 2 tumblers of pink lemonade at Chili’s.
500 calories could be taking two 15 minute walks.
It doesn’t have to be all or nothing! That’s my philosophy.
You know, health & weight loss is about more than counting calories or the number on the scale.
If you would like to know more about calories, nutrition, and reading labels, check out my free mini-course.
Best & Blessings!

““You have heard that it was said, ‘You shal ““You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven.

As a born again believer, you are the righteousnes As a born again believer, you are the righteousness of Christ! You are blameless and set apart. If you fall, you repent (you get up, turn around and go back the right way). You are His!

You have authority and power over darkness! Sorry, no created thing —jewel, crystal, universe, person, or spirit-practice will give you this power, you must be born again. You must stand up and take your place! The world is waiting on us!

Can you imagine having a hefty inheritance but you never cashed the check? Or a high-paying dream job offer and you kept letting the calls go to voicemail?  Or the love of your life sending you sweet love letters and you never opened them? That's exactly what we're doing when we ignore the call of the Father in Christ Jesus!

There is a crown and position waiting for you! One that entitles you to His goodness, power and presence now and the beautiful honor of reigning with Jesus forever! 

Luke 10:19 - Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you.

Romans 8:19 - For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God.

1 Peter 1:3-5 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, 5 who by God's power are being guarded through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

Romans 3:21 The one who conquers, I will grant him to sit with me on my throne, as I also conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne. - Jesus

Wanted a little getaway, so I took a day trip to N Wanted a little getaway, so I took a day trip to Newnan. Did a little shopping and headed back home. Next time, I might make it to Atlanta.

In these days in between I’m learning that I’m an adventurer, not an aimless wanderer.

God is so good to show us who we are through His eyes and the lens of scripture.

Where I once felt like an outcast, I can now see that I’m out of the box.

I used to think that I was disloyal, but now I see I’m a bit zealous to say yes. 

Where I once felt late and left behind, I can see that I’m working on His heavenly timing. 

I’m forgoing the good, to say yes to the fullness of God. 

I’m waiting.
I’m resting.
I’m enjoying the view.

I hope you all are having a great Friday and that you have a blessed weekend! 💜💙💜
Sometimes the end of one thing makes way for somet Sometimes the end of one thing makes way for something new and fresh! In the middle, we can sometimes find ourselves mourning what was instead of rejoicing of what’s to come. 

I pray that as one season of your life ends, you can look forward with excitement because God is always doing a new thing! 

Isaiah 43:19 ESV
Behold, I am doing a new thing;
 now it springs forth, do you not perceive it?
I will make a way in the wilderness
  and rivers in the desert.
