Consistency is the Key

Troops Be Consistent

I remember a time when I had gained about 20 pounds and tried everything I could think to lose it. My clothes were getting tight; I was very uncomfortable; and I wanted to lose the weight quickly. For a few days, I ate no fat at all. When that didn't work I ate nothing but protein. When I had no success with all protein after a couple of days, I decided to eat only 1600 calories per day; I thought I would pass out.

As you can imagine, I became very frustrated. I couldn't figure it out. I don't know what you do when you get confused but the first thing I do is simply pray; yes I said pray.

So I simply asked God to help me in this area, why can't I get and keep this area under control, he simply said something I will never forget: CONSISTENCY is the key since that day I have certainly found those words to be rue. If we want to make progress in any area of our lives, we need to keep doing the right thing over a period oftime.

That is what consistency means, I didn't need a fad diet; I needed to eat healthy and eat reasonable portions of food regularly, as a lifestyle not a quick fix. I knew that, but continued to struggle until the day I was reminded of a phrase "NECESSARY FOOD" if it's not necessary, don't eat it. That did for me Over the next few months, I'd worked off those 20 pounds and haven't regained them since.

Remember, eat only your necessary food and be

CONSISTENT

Committed to your fit -body!!!
