Compared to Who? Body Image for Christian Women

Why is it Bad to Put Myself Down? What do I Say When a Friend Loses Weight? Ask Me Anything


Listen Later

In today's "Ask Me Anything" episode Heather tackles two listener questions:

1) What do I say when a friend loses weight (and everyone else is complimenting her)? 

2) Why is it bad to put myself down? I'd never say anything mean about someone else's body, so what's the problem with criticizing mine and saying that I don't like the way I look?

Heather tackles both of these questions from the perspective of what the Bible asks of us, that is: speaking the truth in love (Ephesians 4:15).

She gives a hope-filled answer for the one who is struggling to know what to say after a friend loses a considerable amount of weight (through a risky method). Heather also offers some encouragement for how you can help the friend, family member, or co-worker who can't stop putting her self down. 

Don't forget to check out Heather's brand new book, "The 40-Day Body Image Workbook." If you purchase the book this month you can get the 5 free walking workouts to help you process the content.
