HEALTHY EATING TIP! Believe it or not, most people are never able to stay healthy because they are too busy comparing their body to someone else's. Whether it is your job, life or your body, comparing yourself to another individual(s) can be detrimental to your health and well being. "Unhappiness comes from comparison." Most people are extremely aware that comparison is wrong, however, they do not recognize that this bad habit can be attributed to food and body size as well. Every person is able to achieve a healthy body and weight, but each person must recognize that healthy weight and size is INDIVIDUALIZED. This means not everyone will be healthy at a size 0, 4, 6 or whatever the case may be. If you stop focusing on the size and progression of weight loss/maintenance that your neighbor has, you may just reach your own personal desirable weight! 






"Not that we dare to classify or compare with some of those who are commending themselves, But when they measure themselves by one another and compare themselves with one another, they are without understanding
 (Corinthians 10:12). "
