Hi Becky,
Thought I would comment on your question about the lean meat protein. Of course lean meat protein is better than fatty meat protein! Right? Of course. But, the Daniel diet from the Bible did not contain any meat! Hence, I would challenge you to take a 3, 7, or 10 day period where you would not include any meat in your personal diet as a sacrifice of worship to the Lord. As I am sure you know, a person can get protein through a vegetable/fruit/grains/nuts diet or many of the animals we eat would not be getting the protein they need to build muscle and strong, lean bodies. So, I encourage you to continue the challenge you have given at your gym but that you take a few days without meat protein as a way to give added worship to the Lord.
Blessings,
Pastor Tom
