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.<br> Topics we’ll be discussing:<br> <br> * cheat days: are they worth it?<br> * fatigue and how that affect dieting<br> * sweets addiction<br> * vacation eating and how to stay the course while on vacation<br> * careless living after losing weight<br> * how God feels about us in the midst of a binge<br> * the importance of renewing<br> <br> We also discuss the following lies:<br> <br> * This is a special treat so I should eat it.<br> * We never get to do this so I should enjoy it.<br> * It won’t hurt. It’s only a little bit.<br> * I’ve already blown it. I might as well keep eating.<br> * I’m on vacation. I’ll get back on track when I get home.<br> * God doesn’t love me when I’m bingeing.<br> <br> 12/28/18 Update from Sandy:<br> 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.<br> Thanks for the update, Sandy!<br> How to Listen to the Podcast:<br> <br> * Apple Podcasts:<a href="https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/id1203994286"> click here</a><br> * Stitcher: <a href="http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/the-christian-habits-podcast-4/taste-for-truth-weight-loss-encouragement?refid=stpr">click here</a><br> * Google Play: <a href="https://play.google.com/music/listen?u=0#/ps/Isbrpbtwkjbhstjc77w7ztuvusu">click here</a><br> <br> Resources we Talked About on This Podcast:<br> <br> * <a href="http://barbraveling.com/i-deserve-a-donut-weight-loss-app/">I Deserve a Donut weight loss app</a><br> * <a href="https://amzn.to/2YlooQD">Taste for Truth: A 30 Day Weight Loss Bible Study</a><br> * <a href="https://amzn.to/2DPqkau">Freedom from Emotional Eating: An 8 Week (40 Day) Bible Study</a><br> * <a href="https://amzn.to/2sOjCiM">Renewing of the Mind Project</a><br> * <a href="https://www.dietbet.com/">Diet Bets</a><br> <br> <br>
