Healthy Habits, Healthy Living!

Do any of these describe you?

• Do you get pumped for New Year's resolutions just to find yourself wondering "what happened?!" a few weeks later?
• Do you find yourself struggling to follow a diet? Or on the flip side, do you follow a diet really well just to have everything fall apart once the diet plan is over?
• Do you have a hard time getting yourself to the gym in your busy schedule?
• Do you try to establish healthy habits, just to find everyday real life getting in the way of achieving them?
• Are you sick of buying weight loss products just to constantly fluctuate in weight?

How do we create healthy habits that are so efficient that we never have to worry about weight loss again?

Let's face it. Maintaining healthy habits is hard. But it doesn't have to be.

Ten years ago, I started to struggle with weight. I would try different weight loss products and programs, but they all seemed to be missing something. Things steadily got worse. About six years ago, I unexpectedly gained a large amount of weight within a three month period. Doctors refused to test me for anything and kept giving the same basic recommendations for healthy eating and exercise. From there, all my health problems started, with a large amount of them stemming from my weight issues.

Fast forward to 2016, and I had enough. I had tried everything I possibly could but was still 100 pounds overweight. I ended up in a deep, dark and scary place where I gave up all hope. I stopped taking care of my body because I thought losing weight was a hopeless endeavor for me. From there, with all self-esteem gone, I stopped getting involved in things. I stayed home as often as I could. It was affecting me, but it was also affecting my husband and my child.

However, in 2017 my life changed.

After growing up in church, followed by walking away from God for many years, I found my way back. Jesus changed my life and turned it upside down. Nothing in my life changed, everything was still hard, but I gained a spirit inside of me that gave me the courage to tackle anything coming my way.

Of course, it took me a whole extra year to realize that just as I felt that Jesus was the missing puzzle piece in my life, He was also my missing puzzle piece in weight loss. After months of prayer and devoting myself to His word, he pressed onto me a weight loss plan that was too good not to share.

This could be the missing piece for you as well. We easily give our cares to God. We pray for our friends and family. We go to Him when times are tough. However, do we make him front and center of our weight loss issues?

Imagine the feeling of taking all your bad habits, and resolving them in God’s name?

Here’s the best part: Imagine people asking you how you lost all the weight, and you responded with Bible verses instead of the name of a specific weight loss product?

After just one week completing this, I not only lost seven pounds (in the week that is the only week not focused on weight loss) but I was also the closest to God that I have ever been in a long time.

My favorite part was that I was able to make a program specifically for my needs. I was able to pinpoint my weakest points in weight loss, then tackle them step by step with built-in devotionals and built-in support.

Think of what your weight loss experience could be like if you had your own personalized weight loss program. The possibilities are endless!
