Do you ever feel like weight loss is a battle? Not just a one and done but a back and forth lose/gain experience? On today’s podcast, I visit with Sandy about the ups and downs of weight loss. Here’s a sampling of the topics we’ll be discussing.
Topics we’ll be discussing:
* cheat days: are they worth it?
* fatigue and how that affect dieting
* sweets addiction
* vacation eating and how to stay the course while on vacation
* careless living after losing weight
* how God feels about us in the midst of a binge
* the importance of renewing
We also discuss the following lies:
* This is a special treat so I should eat it.
* We never get to do this so I should enjoy it.
* It won’t hurt. It’s only a little bit.
* I’ve already blown it. I might as well keep eating.
* I’m on vacation. I’ll get back on track when I get home.
* God doesn’t love me when I’m bingeing.
12/28/18 Update from Sandy:
I asked Sandy for an update to put on the blog and here’s the email she sent me: Though I have been struggling the last few months, I am not quitting. God is still working on me and I am making progress internally and I know the external will follow. When I start with the external/food plan, it isn’t sustainable for long because the root causes are not fixed. Through a number of things God brings my way, I am slowly working through the spiritual and emotional part of eating, which will yield more permanent results.
Thanks for the update, Sandy!
