La Vita knows first-hand how being overweight can affect every area of one's life. At her heaviest, her petite size 5 had skyrocketed to an unhealthy 200 pounds. Her well-being and self-esteem had plummeted to an all-time low as she suffered with depression, anxiety, and binging. Food became her comfort and her "drug" of choice. After trying countless diets, she began exercising at home, playing gospel music to keep her going. Before long, she was reciting Bible verses during her exercise routine. Not only did she begin to shed the extra pounds, her exercise time had become precious times of praise, prayer, and inspiration. As an evangelist of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and a certified personal trainer and fitness counselor, La Vita's vibrant personality and enthusiasm for the Lord is contagious as she shares victorious Christian living and the joy of fitness across the nation.

One day we will no longer have need for our physical bodies. But as long as we are walking, breathing, and living on this earth, the body is the vehicle we use everyday for everything we need to do. The Bible is clear about proper care for the body.

Your body is a temple. We are the Church. God wants to use ours bodies as the dwelling place for His precious gift of the Holy Spirit so we may continue Christ's work on the earth (1 Corinthians 6:19-20).

We should not neglect the body or the soul. Just as many people feel that their spiritual well-being is important, we also need to properly care for the physical and emotional needs of the body (3 John 2).

Our bodies are what we really have to offer completely to God's service (Romans 12:1). When we do this, God can use us in ways we never imagined.

Society inundates us with appearance as a motivation to lose weight. However, when we care for our complete health through the Word of God, prayer, proper nutrition, regular activity, and sufficient rest we can:

have a positive outlook on life and a clear and concise mind to cope with challenges
have ample energy to enjoy the most important things in life and perform our daily activities with ease
be free from anxiety, stress, and depression, or can overcome these obstacles through healthy lifestyle practices
decrease the risk for illnesses and diseases and minimize existing health conditions, and ultimately
be used by God to accomplish what we would have never imagine He would do in us and through us.

Life is a precious gift. And our total health--spirit, soul, and body is our true wealth!
God Bless You!
