jrocas05 @jrocas05 (114) • Philippines 10 Apr 10

Merryheart51 Going to church on Sunday should never be thought of as a chore or something that must be done. Going to a church building has nothing to do with being a Christian. It is only a place where we can gather to express our praise to God and His Son Jesus Christ....

Merryheart51 It is never, NEVER, NEVER o.k. to starve yourself. Starving does not help you lose fat, it only helps you lose water, and then the body turns on itself to provide needed energy and you lose muscle. Starving puts your body into a state of UNWELLNESS, so if you...
