The Ups and Downs of Weight Loss with Sandy

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!
