Take care of your health

That was a resolution Victoria Uwumarogie made for 2015 and while she definitely should have made a trip to the doctor, she did go hard at the gym. She lost nearly 50 pounds, fasted and prayed, and felt and looked better than she had in a long time — since high school as a matter of fact. Sometimes we let the stress of work, relationships and more get the best of us and we resort to getting too acquainted with junk food. And sometimes we mindlessly eat, then we’re shocked when weight sneaks up on us. Even if you’re not overweight, take care of your body. Be mindful of what you put into it. Next year, we plan to go to the doctor for more regular checkups and look out for the bodies God gave us, not just on the outside but also the inside.
