Weight loss the continued road we walk



Good day, I hope you have a great start to your day. Today I want to talk about the lifelong battle of weight loss. I think most people are afraid to admit that it's a battle because of the harsh criticism from people. As a former overweight woman, I can only speak from my perspective. Daily I battle with the thoughts of gaining weight again. I still see myself as overweight. I still have fears that it will come back worse. Food addiction is a real thing, however, the root must be addressed. Food was my comfort. Food was my happiness. I could remember when it started as well. Once I got a job at 17 and had my own money I was able to buy what I wanted. That freedom however came with a price. It started to become my safe place when I was sad. When my heart was broken, I ate, if I did well on the job I ate, when I failed my nursing exam I ate, and so on. Sometimes you do need help when it comes to weight loss. Thankful I had that help from my husband. I see a lot of people online say they are helping with tough love by calling it out. Honestly for some that may work and for others that may not. Why not ask the sister if she needs help overcoming something in her life? Why not be patient with her? Yes, sharp rebuke is necessary at times but not all the time. So to my sisters who feel ashamed, who feel embarrassed, who feel ugly or unloved, know that I was you. Know that I love you. Know that I  understand because I was in your shoes. With these same shoes, I will walk with you to a healthier lifestyle. I will NEVER charge you because you matter sister. Freely I was given( to a degree) but freely shall I give you all. You can do it. You will do it because I believe you can. Please if you have any questions or need any help I am here. It's going to take work and self-discipline but you got this. I hope I have provoked thought and know we are on this journey for life๐ŸŒน๐ŸŒน

Weight Loss Wednesday :)


 


This is the beginning of my weight loss journey. This was tough, and to be quite honest this will be a lifestyle journey. If I could do it, so can you sister.๐Ÿ’•. Here’s my story. Disclaimer: This speaks about fibroids passing and infertility. Feel free to proceed at your own risk. This is not medical advice, I'm sharing what worked for me. 


Good morning. About two years ago, I started my weight loss journey with my husband when he purchased the book “Prevent and Reverse ALL Disease 100% Naturally.” Fighting for my health has been a long and stressful journey. FOOD ADDICTION IS REAL, and it is something that I have battled with and will continue to for the rest of my life.

When I started my health journey around the end of Dec 2018, I weighed 253 pounds, although I believe I was more than that. To provide some background history, I had many health issues, including fibroids, various colds, infertility, etc. I never went to the doctor to get diagnosed with fibroids, but I knew that I had them because I passed them out due to a change in my diet. (Beet kvass). Then I started the G-BOMBS after watching a video from Brother Nathaniel Jordan. While watching the video series on The POWER of the G-BOMBS, I would get angry, and my food addiction would start speaking to justify that the foods I loved to eat are not that bad. When I first started making the recipes in the book, I was not too fond of the taste, especially mushrooms.

If it were not for my husband staying with me, I would have given up. But I kept eating healthfully and watching the videos, and now, as of today, I am 164 pounds! This is truly a lifestyle change, and by YAH’s mercy and grace, I will never go back to being obese and sick! ALSO, MY INFERTILITY WAS CURED, AND WE HAD A BABY 6 MONTHS AGO!!! (Btw, this baby is about to be two in August) Thank you for everything you put forth because it can change someone’s life if they allow it to.

The G-BOMBS is a disciplined way of eating, but it has excellent benefits. All praise to YAH because I believe YAH is preparing His people to be healthy these last days. Our people suffer so much from illness due to food addiction. We as a people need to hear a sharp rebuke. Brother Nathaniel gives this rebuke sharply. Yes, it hurts, but it is beneficial.

Above all, I thank our Heavenly Father for His Help in this journey, as it has taken much fasting and a lot of prayers.

May the Most-High bless you and your family.

This is an old post and I am still on my journey and reached 157 pounds. Again this is a journey and the weight goes up and down but never back to where I started.
