You started to feel good when you ate healthily or lost weight… and shame when you veered off course. How you ate became a way of measuring your worth, and food started to attach itself to morality. Your commitments to yourself to do better next year, next month, or tomorrow became empty promises and your word began to mean nothing to you. All-or-nothing eating set in and you felt sunk. What you ate one week, one day or even one minute ago is irrelevant to how you eat NOW.
The here and now is the one and only moment you have control over. Stop making decisions based on your past choices and make them based on your values. My blog name used to be A Joyful Plate. About 9 months into my blogging journey, I received a letter that made my heart sink and tears flow. A cease and desist arrived at my front door, informing me that I was in trademark violation and at risk for some serious fines.
And Grace Filled Plate was born. The sooner we can let grace catch us, the closer we are to our weight loss goals. The key is learning how to manage slips.
What happens to most dieters is that they see the slip as a reason to indulge. Any time I offer a new product in the Grace Filled Plate Store , one of the first questions I get is about what that resource requires participants to eat. And no one knows you better than the Holy Spirit. I encourage you to pray about food and even to use this Prayer for Weight Loss and ask God for direction and peace. These simple habits will get the ball rolling and start to shine a light on areas you could improve upon.
In church, we learn about the Great Commission and how our actions can be the only Bible some people ever read William J. I used to be dreadful to have over for dinner.
We often speak of Thin Within TW as a journey where you travel from one phase to another. These phases are not rigid but a progression along a personal path that God has prepared for you. This is the phase where you begin to evaluate how you feel when you eat certain foods. Eating when you are hungry and stopping at that place of satisfaction requires some discernment as to how your body responds to different foods.
You may discover you have more energy and sleep better when making certain food choices and the reverse may also be true.
Our freedom has been purchased at a very high price and true freedom leads to the freedom to obey what God is revealing to you as you progress on your Thin Within journey. Therefore, enjoy your freedom wisely, with a grateful heart! The class fee includes a weekly video lesson, a workbook, audio CDs and online support.
