Holistic healing
I started this Weight Loss God’s Way journey at the end of January, 2018, with almost 60kg extra weight to release. I have struggled with food and weight all my adult life and have been on many diets. I managed to lose weight on some of these but always regained it and then some. This journey feels quite different- more sustainable, one small change at a time and stripping away the denial and excuses that have taken me back to overeating and weight gain time and time again. To date, I have released 24.1kg but that is not the big change. My thinking is changing and my attitude to exercise, to foods I couldn’t live without and my willingness to commit to one change at a time and to keep looking at the emotional and spiritual roots of my idolatry of food and persevere through the gradual process of allowing God to heal me. I am not hurrying to lose the lot as I did in past diets – it’s about the process more than the number on the scale. I’m so grateful for each day of this journey and for all I’m learning about myself and about my relationship with Jesus.
