It's estimated that 8.60% of women and 4.07% of men will experience an eating disorder in their lifetime.LGBTQ+ youth are three times more likely to experience an eating disorder than their heterosexual peers. 1 Corinthians 10:31 says, whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. What if breaking free from food addiction starts with spiritual strength or letting go entirely?So how can we practice overcoming food addiction through a spiritual lense? Here are a few things we work through in the Biblical Weight Loss Framework:1- Pray over your triggers, what they are, how to identify them, then how to lay them down, using scripture to confirm God's message and intention for our lives and bodies. 2- Learn to replace those cravings with a spiritual discipline. Scripture reminds us in Ephesians 1:19-20 "I also pray that you will understand the incredible greatness of God’s power for us who believe him. This is the same mighty power 20 that raised Christ from the dead and seated him in the place of honor at God’s right hand in the heavenly realms." If you have Jesus, you have everything you need.3- Seek support from an accountability partner or join the BWLF and let's work together in my group coaching program, it is never too late to let God work in your life and biblical weight loss journey!Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.
