Fasting. It's a huge trend in our culture. Eat less= weigh less. It's a quick, easy way to lose weight.

But what if it's not? What if your stubborn weight is the result of years of undereating? In this episode of Waterbreak, Gabe and Annie break down why aggressive fasting is a bad strategy for most women — especially moms who are underrested, overstressed, under-muscled, and metabolically burned out. If you’re stuck, exhausted, resistant to weight loss, and tempted to just “eat less,” this episode will challenge your paradigm and give you a better path forward.

Does God care what you eat?

In this episode of Water Break, Gabriel and Annie sit down with Andy Felton, author of Nourished by Design, to explore a deeply theological approach to nutrition. Is the Bible a diet manual? Should Christians follow “biblical diets”? How do we think about seed oils, sugar, carnivore, keto, and modern food systems without becoming food Pharisees? This conversation blends Scripture, science, and common sense — and challenges believers to rethink food, embodiment, and flourishing through a Christ-centered lens.
