At some point in time almost everyone over 40 wants to lose a little weight.  Whether you want to lose five pounds or one hundred pounds, losing weight can be a challenge, but it doesn’t have to be frustrating if we make the right choices.

For most of us, losing weight comes down to making a choice. Let me explain …

During my devotional this morning, I was reading Numbers chapter 1. At this point on their journey, God had already given the Israelites instructions on how to live a holy life. Now they were responsible for the choices they made.

As I meditated on this scripture, I was reminded that we are responsible for our choices too. Just as we are responsible for living a holy life as instructed by God’s Word, we are also responsible for making the right health choices. Most people take responsibility for their families; their businesses or career; and even for their automobiles, but when it comes to their own bodies, we often make the wrong choices.

So the next time you have a choice between a slice of pie or an apple – be responsible and make the right choice. Making right choices consistently on a daily basis will produce the results you want.

Action step for today:

Stop right now and take a minute to make a commitment to yourself to be responsible for your choices. It will change your life!
