Her Weight Loss Mindset | Lose Weight, Meal Prep, Healthy Habits, and Workouts

Luke 14:28 says, “For which of you, desiring to build a tower, does not first sit down and count the cost, whether he has enough to complete it?”Proverbs 16:9 says, “In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps.”Hebrews 12:11 “No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who are trained by it.”What is the Biblical Weight Loss Framework? (BWLF) Step 1: Goals/Why/Connect- helps us to connect with God in our journey, it is the entire basis of what we will do in your 90 day journey. Connecting with the Spirit is the only thing that will truly help you stay connected. We set goals based on what God reveals to you and work on finding WHY you truly want to lose weight and get healthy. Step 2: Mindset; learning what sets us off will help us to recognize the areas we need to focus on and heal. There is much that goes on in step two, but this is the basis. Step 3: Time Management/Sabbath Step 4: Nutrition and Movement based on your specific profile and needs.Step 5: Walking in Purpose. We’re called to make disciples who make disciples, not be inward focused. We’ll talk about fighting fear and finding your spiritual gifts.Here are 3 things you can do today to get started.Start praying and reading daily. 5-10 minutes asking God what you need to do to focus on this area of your life. Pray Psalm 139:23-24, you should know it by now. Start journaling what He reveals to you. What is ONE area you can start to focus on right now? Not 2-3 areas, ONE. Ask Him to help you make a plan and He will.Start to log where you spend your time; how long are you scrolling? Where do you feel the most distraction? What time do you go to bed? Get up? Are you rushing? Are you looking at your phone first. Start to take an inventory of how you spend your time and ask Him to help you recreate your priorities. Father, thank You for the promise of peace and righteousness. Forgive me for fighting discipline in my life. Thank You for continuing to encourage me through this struggle area. I am tired Lord; I have tried everything except Your way. I make excuses, I starve myself, I live in fear of food, and I am ready for something new. Lay on my heart the first step I need to take today and help me to trust Your provision. I love You Lord and am excited, scared and nervous to dig into the hard parts of my life, but I know that it’s only through inner healing that I can achieve the outer. Lead me Jesus, help me to honor You with my choices and my thoughts today. Amen.Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

"Whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. 1 Corinthians 10:31I’m not a medical doctor, these findings are based on what I’ve witnessed in almost 10 years of working with women.This is a baseline, this has zero to do with health issues, menopause, your actual current fitness and many other factors.  Your Daily Estimated Goal: 2,060 calories, 155 grams of protein, 69 grams of fat and 206 grams of carbs.Here's a basic menu:Breakfast: 4 eggs, 2 cups spinach, one meatball, and either two pieces of buttered gluten free toast or 1/2c sweet potato.Snack: Protein shake, I like Earth Chimp, it’s plant based and loaded with probiotics, you can find the link on my website if you’d like to try it or just search amazon. I’ve been making this amazing protein bars so I eat one of those too with my shake, that totals 40 grams of protein. You can do 1c greek yogury with fruit.Lunch is: 4-6 ounces of chicken, meatballs or whatever is made in the fridge. Right now I’m eating 1 cup green beans and ½ c whole grain rice.Snack: 2 cups popcorn or veggies with fruit and greek yogurt, 4 ounces of meat and a cup of cucumbers with hummus.Dinner: Whatever protein you have left, anywhere from 4-7 ounces of meat plus 1 c veggie of choice, 1/2c-3/4c potatoes or rice. Treat with in season fruit and a tsp of peanut butter.Even two people who fit this basic profile will in the end have different plans because every body is different. Thank You Father for new mercies each day. Thank You that I get to learn new ways to fuel my body and for creating me in Your image. Forgive me for making excuses and following my own path. Help me to live by Psalm 139:23-24 Father and reveal anything in my mind that needs healing. I want to change inside and out, I want to be free of a quick fix mindset. I want to live obedient to Your Spirit inside me. Help me Lord. Thank You for always giving me what I need even though it’s rarely what I think I want. I’m so glad You know best. I love You most, amen. Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

Proverbs 3:1-8 “My son, do not forget my teaching, but keep my commands in your heart, for they will prolong your life many years and bring you peace and prosperity. Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.”Why do we force weight loss when we haven’t healed from the junk that made us gain weight in the first place? What do you think is going to happen when our body starts to reject the quick fix and we pay dearly for not trusting God? Matthew 7:13-14 says, “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”Lord, the temptation to quick fix is everywhere. Clear my mind Jesus, I want the Holy kind of healing that only comes from You working in me. Forgive me for trying to control this on my own; I’m so not in control which is why I find myself in this spot again, trying to do it alone. I need You Lord, I only want You. Help me Father, show me Your path of righteousness. I am afraid to look inward, I’m afraid to forgive and surrender Lord, but I know I need to and thank You for giving me the strength I need to keep going when everyone around me is losing weight the easy way. You don’t call us to easy, You call us to trust and that’s what I want Lord. Lead me, help me and give me the discipline to lean in when I want to quit. Thank You for loving me as I am while I work to give You this area of my life. Jesus gave everything for me and I want to honor that with my next choice. I love You Father and it’s in Your Name I pray, Amen.  Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

Proverbs 1: 1-7: "The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel: for gaining wisdom and instruction; for understanding words of insight; for receiving instruction in prudent behavior, doing what is right and just and fair; for giving prudence to those who are simple, knowledge and discretion to the young, let the wise listen and add to their learning, and let the discerning get guidance, for understanding proverbs and parables, the sayings and riddles of the wise. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction."MUSCLE is what keeps us healthy, it’s what fights off disease and helps us get off the floor when we’re 80 without requiring 3 chairs, help and a 6 step process.Start small. If you haven’t worked out in years, start walking a few days a week and do some body weight workouts, modified pushups on your knees or the wall, squats, lunges, tricep dips, bicep curls with soup cans, just do something. Invest in 1-5 pound weights, it doesn’t need to be much. Just watch your form; people tell me all the time they are scared to workout and 98% of the time it’s due to poor form. Pray for discernment and let the Lord lead. Lord, fill us with Your Holy wisdom, with knowledge and discernment. Help us to do the hard thing Father, even when the world pushes quick fixes and weight loss. I know it’s about so much more. I want Holy strength Lord, the resurrection kind that only comes from walking in obedience to Your voice. I want to be strong Father; physically yes, but mentally, emotionally and most importantly, spiritually. Lead me Jesus, help me to focus on more than the scale, on being healthy for my family and the calling You’ve placed on my life. Show me how Lord, I need You only. I ask this in Your Name, Amen. Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

Eating whole foods from the ground is key; beans, legumes, rice, potatoes, quinoa, whole grains, these are the key to energy in your life.How to tell if a processed food is healthy: Look at the grams of carbs per serving. There should be at least 1 gram of fiber per 10 grams of carbs. The sugar grams should be LESS than the fiber and if there’s protein, that’s a bonus.Daily: aim for 4-6 cups of veggies daily, 3-4 cups of fruit, and 150- 200ish grams of carbs to start. Carbs are full of fiber and a woman’s daily need for fiber is 25grams.Father, thank You for the gift of food, for delicious carbohydrates You placed on the Earth. Help me to not live in fear of food Lord but to trust in Your abundant provision. Help me to know what foods benefit me and which ones don’t regardless of what the world says. I want to live for You alone. Show me how to eat Lord and forgive me when I look for the quick fix or covet someone else’s results. Help me to see what You’re doing in my life and thank You for loving me as I am as I work to be who You’ve called me to be. I love You Father and it’s in Your Son’s Name I pray, Amen. Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

Proverbs 31:17 says, “She dresses herself with strength and makes her arms strong.” There are many forms of exercise: body weight, Pilates and yoga, light and heavy weights. Find something that pushes you, that strengthens you, that makes you sweat, gets your heart rate up and will build muscle in your body. Lord, I want to sweat, I want to move my body as You designed, but I’ve created an aversion to exercise and I don’t know how to break it. Help me Father. I want to honor You with this part of my journey. I struggle to feel confident in my skin but I want to. I want to be fit, not for vanity’s sake but because I want to be healthy in the calling You’ve placed me in. Fill me with Your conviction Father and give me the strength and confidence I need knowing that You go before me always. Help me to move with Holy purpose Jesus. I love You and praise You and ask this in Your Name, Amen.Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

Isaiah 40:11 says, “He will feed his flock like a shepherd. He will carry the lambs in his arms, holding them close to his heart. He will gently lead the mother sheep with their young.”Here are 5 things you can do today to implement small changes:Set your alarm 10-15 minutes early to ensure time to yourself. Be responsible for your time the night before so you can ensure an early start and focused time on what's important. This means limiting screen time and going to bed on time. Even prepping what you can for the next day. Anchor 2 minutes of prayer first thing in the morning; if you’re short on time, even while brushing your teeth. God doesn’t care where you pray, He cares THAT you pray. Just talk to Him, staying in step with the Spirit will help you stay patient when your little one clings to you.Listen to worship throughout the day. I don’t like constant noise, I think it’s important to have quiet time, but we play music throughout the day. Choose movement over workouts — dance parties count! Just move. Walk in place, carry your little for a bit, 10-minute walks after meals can regulate blood sugar!Invite your kids to join you in the kitchen, prepping snacks or making smoothies. Your littles just want to be involved in what you’re doing. Don’t distract them with a screen, get them involved in your process. Let them help you workout and food prep, you’re creating healthy habits that will be instilled in them for life!Father, thank you for our babies, thank You for the tiny blessings You’ve given us in our kids. We know You see this mama in her mess and in her struggle, and her desire to be healthy for her family. Remind her that she is enough in You and help her to make time in her day for herself. Help her to find grace in the hard times, peace in the midst of chaos and let her feel Your Holy anointing on her home and over her children. Thank You for those You’ve placed in our lives Lord, let us never take them for granted. Help us to be who they need us to be today as we point them to You. It’s in Jesus’s Name we pray, Amen.Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

Matthew 6:33; "Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need."Protein helps you:Stay full longer — It slows digestion, helping you avoid those mid-afternoon energy crashes or late-night snacking binges. This helps to eliminate visceral fat that builds over our mid-section and causes heart issues.Build lean muscle — Muscle burns more calories, even at rest. So, more muscle = a faster metabolism. Which is needed especially as we age.Maintain your progress — When you lose weight without enough protein, you can lose muscle instead of fat. Protein protects your progress. This is where we start to see that muscle definition we want.Here’s what this could look like in your real life:Breakfast: Greek yogurt with berries, or eggs with veggies. I eat 4 eggs with a meatball, two cups spinach, 2 pieces buttered toast and ¼ c sweet potatoes for breakfast every day. Start your day right, breakfast IS the most important meal of the day!Mid-morning snack- protein bar + protein shake.Lunch: A chicken wrap, tuna salad, or cottage cheese bowl. Snacks: boiled eggs, jerky, or edamame. Meatballs, chicken, cottage cheese with fruit. Greek yogurt with fruit.Dinner: Salmon, lean beef, or lentil chili with a side of roasted veggies.The key is this: include protein in every meal. Try to focus on 35-40 gramSteps to Start:Start logging your food to see how much protein you currently eat. What meals or snacks could I easily upgrade by adding more protein?How can I use this protein focus to glorify God instead of making excuses?Action Step: Make a meal plan. Holy Father, thank You for creating our bodies in Your image. Let me eat accordingly Lord. I have lived fearful of food and I’m sorry. Please change my thinking and help me to plan better for myself and my household. I want to change, I am ready for change, but I need help and encouragement. Give me peace as I plan my meals this week, help me to find things to eat that my family will enjoy and help me to stop giving food so much power in my life. I want to eat to live, not live to eat. Show me Father, thank You for new mercies each day, I know I need them. I love You Jesus and it’s in Your Holy Name I pray, amen. Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

Ephesians 6:12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places."John 10:10: the thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy.

 Proverbs 3:5-6 says, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.” Ecclesiastes 8:15 says, “ And I commend joy, for man has nothing better under the sun but to eat and drink and be joyful, for this will go with him in his toil through the days of his life that God has given him under the sun.” Eat food; real, from the ground, not processed food. Learn to read labels, research ingredients. It's up to you to take responsibility for what you eat and feed your families.Thank You Father for being the constant in our heads, for eliminating the lies of the enemy and filling us with peace as we trust in You during this battle. It feels like a battle Lord, it feels like I am constantly fighting the weight loss battle and I’m tired Jesus, so tired. Lord help me, show me what I need to honor You through this journey and thank You for Your Word that keeps me flowing in the right direction. Lead me Father, forgive me for trusting the world’s way, my own way, for believing diet culture lies. I want to be a light for You Lord, show me how.

Psalm 139: O Lord, you have searched me and known me! You know when I sit down and when I rise up; you discern my thoughts from afar. You search out my path and my lying down and are acquainted with all my ways. Even before a word is on my tongue, behold, O Lord, you know it altogether. You hem me in, behind and before, and lay your hand upon me. Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high; I cannot attain it. Where shall I go from your Spirit? Or where shall I flee from your presence? If I ascend to heaven, you are there! If I make my bed in Sheol, you are there! If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea, even there your hand shall lead me, and your right hand shall hold me. If I say, “Surely the darkness shall cover me, and the light about me be night, even the darkness is not dark to you; the night is bright as the day, for darkness is as light with you. For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them. How precious to me are your thoughts, O God! How vast is the sum of them! If I would count them, they are more than the sand. I awake, and I am still with you. Search me, O God, and know my heart! Try me and know my thoughts! And see if there be any grievous way in me, and lead me in the way everlasting. It is only through the healing power of the Holy Spirit that you will ever be free from the burdens of your body in your weight loss journey.Father, thank You for making me, me. Help me to start the process to forgive myself and heal myself from the inside out. I know I have to do the inner work before I can achieve the outer blessing. Help me to shift my perspective of what true health looks like. I want to live for You alone Jesus, help me to quiet the lies of the enemy and a culture that wants me skinny. I only want You Lord and to honor You in all I do. Yes, I have goals but I want them to be what You put on my heart, take anything from me that is not of You and help me to learn to walk in obedience regardless of the scale. I love You Lord and I am so thankful for this body You have given me, forgive me for taking advantage of her and shaming her, that stops today. Help Psalm 139 live in my heart forever Lord as a reminder of Your love for me. Thank You Jesus for Your sacrifice, resurrection and ascension, let me live like You today, with Resurrection power!

Romans 12:2 says. “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.” Matthew 7:13-14 reminds us to: “Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. 14 For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.”Where are you trying to force weight loss in your life? Where are you trying to quick fix your way out of healing? Will you let God be glorified through your weight loss the way He desires to be? Lord, I repent. I am so focused on self and quick fixes I don’t know how to let You lead this area of my life, but I want to. I want to give up the easy way and take the narrow gate, but I’m scared. I’m scared to face my trauma and forgive, but I know it’s the only path to healing. Help me Jesus, I need you to calm my fears about my weight and my body. I don’t want to conform to the world, I want to live as a citizen of heaven here on Earth. Show me how Father, I need You to speak to my soul, fill me with Your Holy Spirit and lead me to where I should go. I love You Lord, thank You for leading this part of my journey, I know it will be hard but I know that it will be worth it. It’s in Jesus most Holy Name I pray, Amen. *This episode is for informational purposes only, not intended for medical advice. *Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

Jeremiah 29:11”For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.”Just do Something:-eat like it, -pray like it- move like it- fuel like it-prep a healthy meal-do your affirmations- take the progress photo.Lord, forgive us for being lazy and idle. Forgive us for expecting the easy way and paying for diets we never use and don’t need. I know You are the true source of health and life and goodness and I ache to live and eat and move for you. Be the sound in my head Lord; lead me to Your path of righteousness and help me to move and eat how You would have me. Show me how Jesus, I want to learn and DO not be complacent.

Psalm 139:130 16: "For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb. I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well. My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret, intricately woven in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them,the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them."Listen friend, no amount of weight loss will make you happy or love yourself until you love yourself today, right now as you are. You are enough; even in the middle of your mess, you're enough.Shame is a lie the enemy uses to stall your weight loss. He plants lies in your head, distractions in your life, your phone, doubt in your journey. We either let Him win or we surrender to God, there is no other way. Which will you choose today? I know you’re tired of your struggles and I am right there with you, but God isn’t, He knew this would be a struggle area in your life and He wants to heal you, if you’ll only surrender to His still small voice. Stewardship is worship — treating your body with love, not punishment. When we eat whole healthy foods, we honor God, when we rest and exercise and speak truth and serve, we honor God. Stewarding your body well, honors God. There is no place for shame in the life or body or weight loss journey of a believer. Ask God to reveal your hurt places and to heal you, and He will. I’d like to challenge you to do 3 things this week as you begin to pray and ask God to work in this area of your life?  #1- Speak aloud 3 truths about your body from Scripture. I am fearfully and wonderfully made, I know this full well. I am a child of the Most High God. He knows me, He numbered the hair on my head, He chose me before Genesis 1. Which will you cling to today?#2- Declutter social media or habits that feed comparison. Listen, social media is keeping you from healing here. Let’s be real. You’re wasting time that could be spent walking or prepping or reading or sleeping. Put your phone down and live your life! # 3- Practice 1 loving act of stewardship: hydration, rest, gentle movement, food prep, being present with the people you’re with. Find peace knowing that God will provide when you seek Him with all your heart. “God, I repent of the ways I’ve spoken shame over my body. Teach me to steward this temple with grace, not guilt. Thank you for new mercies each day and your constant reminder that I am fearfully and wonderfully made.”Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

HAPPY 250th BIRTHDAY AMERICA!! I hope you had a great weekend!“Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul.” — 3 John 1:2Eat More Food- The answer is building a healthy metabolism, one day one step, one choice at a time.-Fat loss after 40 requires muscle support - One of the biggest mistakes women over 40 make is trying to eat as little as possible. But muscle burns energy and with no muscle you’re actually killing your body and aching bones are your constant. If you don’t build muscle and tone your metabolism slows.The goal should never be skinny or lighter on the scale, but toned, lean and flexible. These are the keys to a healthy life.That means:prioritizing proteinstrength trainingwalking consistentlysleeping wellmanaging stressYour goal is not to become smaller at all costs. Your goal is becoming healthier and stronger as you steward your God-given body.Most women are stuck in the cycle of:“starting Monday”being extremely strictburning out by overtraining- this is my biggest struggle.overeatingfeeling ashamedrepeating the cycleStep 1: Eat protein at every meal-30-40 grams, 4-5 times per day. You have to eat more food if you want to lose weight forever.Build your meals around protein. MACROS make all the difference here! Examples:eggs and turkey sausageGreek yogurt and berrieschicken saladcottage cheesesalmonProtein helps preserve muscle, balance blood sugar, and keeps you full.Step 2: Walk daily - Walking is incredibly underrated. Start to track your steps daily then add 1-2,000 daily to get started, working up to 6,000, then 8,000. Start with:20–30 minutes dailyafter meals if possible- did you know that walking for 2 minutes after you eat helps regulate your blood sugar? outside for stress reliefWalking supports fat loss, hormones, blood sugar, and mood.Step 3: Stop restarting- You do not need another “all or nothing” Monday. If you overeat at lunch? Make a healthy dinner. If you miss a workout? Move tomorrow. Women who lose weight long-term learn how to keep going when life happens and we all know life will happen, daily. Praise God right?! Just do the next right thing!Heavenly Father, Thank You for creating our bodies with wisdom and purpose. Help me stop chasing extremes and start walking in consistency, discipline and Holy Spirit led strength. Renew my mind where I’ve believed lies about my worth being in my weight of my size. Teach me to steward my health in a way that honors You Lord. And thank You for grace when I need it. Give me patience for lasting transformation, transformation in my life and thoughts that point me back to You Lord, that is the true transformation I yearn for. I want my life, my body, my choices to be a reflection of You alone Jesus. It’s in Your Most Holy Name I pray, Amen.Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but the power of love, and self-discipline.” 2 Timothy 1:7 Let’s take a look at why discipline collapses especially as we age.Most women try to build discipline on top of:Fear of weight gain or past traumaShame about their body or unkind comments from someone.Urgency to “fix this fast”But fear-driven discipline always backfires.When your body feels threatened:Hunger hormones spikeCravings intensifyObsession increasesAnd it becomes about weight loss instead of honoring God with our choices and our bodies as He’s called us to do. Your body is not resisting discipline, she’s protecting you from yourself.Think about this spiritually. God never leads through fear. The enemy does. Our flesh does. We have to discern the voice we want to obey; the enemy, our flesh or our Holy Father.So when your motivation sounds like:“I have to get this under control”“I can’t let myself mess up”“I’ll start over tomorrow and be stricter”That’s not the Spirit of God speaking. We have to take that thought captive and make it obedient to Christ. Ask yourself as you journal this week:Have I been trying to force fruit from depleted soil? What do you need to change today to refocus your efforts? What do you need to repent from? What would love look like instead of pressure? Do you believe that you can truly change when you let God lead? God, I repent for believing fear was wisdom. I repent from striving instead of trusting, praying and obeying. Restore safety in my body and clarity in my mind Lord, I ache to give you this area of my life. Thank You for Your fruit Father, let it grow inside of me like a sweet tasting treat. Let discipline grow naturally in me Lord as I work to rebuild trust with myself. Thank you Father for this body, let me love her as she deserves. Amen.Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

James 1:5 says. “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.”Your weight X 11, that is your baseline. If you’re exercising add 400. If you’re not exercising, stick to your baseline. Sign up for a FREE MFP app and plug your calories into your goals section and at the calories macros section put your macros at carbs 35%, protein 35% and fat 30%. This will give you a number of grams per day for your protein, fat and carbs which are the ONLY 3 macros you’ll track. Make sure your protein goal lines up with what the formula I gave you last week, it should be close. Make sure it lines up when you add the percentages into My Fitness Pal.Tips:- You can create foods and meals you eat often so it’s easy to add. - If you are exercising or decide to start you will NOT plug that into the app, exercising is a must for sure and I absolutely recommend it, but do not log it in the Fitness Pal app. *You want to stay in a deficit and this formula should work for most people for the first 30-60 days. Then it’s important to work with a coach or join the Framework for more specific help. - Remember, we're not eliminating food groups, plug and play. Want a treat, log it.Action Step: take 5-10 minutes after you pray and read your bible every morning and plug in your day. This will help you have an outline for your day and help you decide what you need to prep and cook for the week. *This is a baseline. I’m not a medical doctor so you should always run these things by a medical professional, but for the women I’ve worked with who actually stick to this basic outline within the next few months you will see a difference in your body; maybe not the scale to start, but maybe more energy, your pants fit better you sleep better.We love You Lord. Thank You for creating amazing foods in such amazing ways. Thank You for taste buds and the opportunity to eat to honor You. Lead me Lord, help me to break away from diet culture and fear of tracking and help me to embrace this new method as I learn to rely on Your Holy Spirit to lead me to what I need to eat and when. Thank You for caring about this part of my journey Father. I want to eat for You, please show me how. Thank You that I don’t have to eliminate food groups unless You tell me to. Help me to learn balance and grace as I learn to serve You this way. I love You Lord. It’s in Your Precious Name I pray, amen. Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.” Romans 12:2PROTEIN FORMULA: .8-1 gram of protein per pound of body weight.Find your number. Your weight X .8 your weight X 1- then start to eat a range of that, moving towards the higher number.Divide and conquer. You should be eating 5-6 times a day. So if we’re sticking with the 180 number as an example, you need 35 grams of protein if eating 5 times a day or 30 grams if eating 6 times per day. Have a plan. I like to bulk prep meatballs by mixing 2 pounds venison with 1 pound ground beef, use what you like. Throw ⅓ c protein oat in a food processor to make a binder and add 2 eggs plus seasoning to your meat. Mix, and weigh them out to be anywhere from 1.5-2 ounces each. Bake on 375 for 12 minutes, then flip and another 12 minutes. 3 of these equals a little over 30 grams of protein. Find a good protein powder, I love Earth Chimp. Protein oats by bobs red mill. They are life changing and naturally gluten free! NOTE* Do NOT eat all this “easy” and “quick” protein drinks, and cookies and crackers in the grocery, they are NOT good for you. MAKE YOUR FOOD. Lord I’m scared to eat more. I know something needs to change but I have such fear because of my old habits and all the world around me. Still my heart Jesus, fill me with peace and guide me to Your truth and what’s best for my body. Help me to instill new habits that lead me to a healthier life, not for weight loss but to glorify You alone. Thank You for loving me as I am while I learn to love myself through this process. Guide me Lord, let me find my peace in You alone. I love You Father, it’s in Your Son’s Holy Name I pray, amen. Action Step: Find your protein number and make a plan as to what you’re going to eat when and how many ounces, grams, etc. you need for each meal to reach your goal. Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

 2 Corinthians 12:9, “But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness. Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.”Leaking Energy comes from:Mental clutter- Too much social media scrolling, comparison, etc.Emotional weight (guilt, shame, stress) cortisol overload.Overcommitment-Even good things you haven’t prayed over become over commitment. Colossians 3:2 “Set our minds on things above, not on things that are on earth. For you have died and your life is hidden with Christ in God.” 3 Ways to Redirect Your Energy:Create boundaries around time + attentionFuel your body with what gives, not drains.Ask the Holy Spirit to fill what’s empty everyday. Holy Father, I am leaking energy, please show me where. I am weary Lord, please help me to refocus on You, the only true sustainer of life and help me to quiet the noise around me. Forgive me for not consulting you before saying yes to everything and thinking busy is better. Show me how to be still with You. Lead me to where You’d have me go and redirect me to what truly matters. Strengthen me to steward my body and time well.

Psalm 25:4-5; “Make me to know your ways O Lord, teach me your paths. Lead me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; for you I wait all the day long.”3 Reasons Moms Quit on Their Health in June:No structure = No self-careWithout school routines, our schedule gets hijacked. Suddenly we’re reactive instead of proactive.We’re emotionally & physically exhaustedLittle people need a lot. It’s hard to make salads and push play on a workout when you haven’t sat down in 6 hours or had a normal night's sleep. We fear we’ve failed againThe voice of shame creeps in: “See? You never stick with it.” But that voice isn’t from God.Galatians 6:9: “So let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time we will reap a harvest if we don’t give up.”3 ways you can refocus your summer goals and let God lead:Create 1 micro habit you can keep even in chaos (e.g. drink water before coffee)- wake up 15 minutes earlier than normal. Pick up your bible before you pick up your phone.Anchor your mornings in prayer before the day runs you. Get in the word daily, even a 3 minute read will fuel your day.Let go of perfection- pursue progress, one step at a time- we focus on obedience to the Holy Spirit, regardless of the outcome, this way God's plan comes before our need for control.Lord, you see this working woman, this wife, this mama. Thank You for loving her as she is while she works to be who You desire for her to be. You know her struggle and you are not disappointed in her, fill her heart with peace Jesus. Remind her that you are with her in the chaos, and that every small step toward obedience to Your Spirit matters. Help her not to grow weary, but to trust your timing and your strength. Thank You for sending Your Son, thank You for His perfect example of faithfulness that we get to live by each day. We love you Jesus and it’s in His name we pray, amen.Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

Now through June 21st Save 44% on the Biblical Weight Loss Framework in honor of my 44th Birthday! My gift for you! “For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking but of righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.” — Romans 14:17 Let that one sink in. And you know I love 1 Corinthians 10:31, “So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.”Sample Meal Plan:-Breakfast: ¾ c-1c plain Greek yogurt bowl with 1c berries and 2 tbsp granola. Add 1 tbsp flax and or coconut for added fat and fiber. -Lunch- Chicken wrap with veggies and fruit. Home grilled chicken is best, the grocery adds garbage ingredients to theirs. Cook a bunch in a crockpot and freeze what you don’t eat. Easy meal prep. Watch your wraps, many have mono and diglycerides which cause cancer. Stacey’s organic wraps are what I use for hub’s lunch. 1 c fruit or an orange, apple etc. you can always add 1 tbsp peanut butter; watch ingredients there too. -Snack-Protein shake. I like Earth Chimp, I add 2 c spinach and ½ banana, I also use Califia unsweetened coconut milk for healthy fat. -Dinner- Ground turkey taco bowls with rice and salsa. All rice is not created equal so watch ingredients! Add 1-2 tbsp guac for some good healthy fat and load up on your veggies!-Dessert - Dark chocolate or Greek yogurt or a cara cara orange, these are a go to in our house!Heavenly Father, Help me create healthy rhythms around food. Forgive me for living without boundaries here, forgive me for legalism and giving food so much power in my life. I lay it all down at Your Holy feet Jesus. Teach me balance, wisdom, and stewardship in all areas of my life, but especially around food, I am tired of this struggle. Free me from extremes Lord and help me to honor You with every choice, in my food journey and in life.

1 Peter 5:6-10:” 6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you, 7 casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you. 8 Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. 9 Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world. 10 And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.”Physical hunger: gradual-satisfied by many foods-stops when full.Emotional hunger: urgent-specific cravings-tied to stress/emotion-often leads to guilt.Lord, help us stop turning to food for what only You can provide. Forgive me for failing here Jesus, heal our hearts and renew our minds. Teach us healthy ways to process emotions and to come to you when we are weary and burdened and fearful.

Psalm 143:5-10: "I remember the days of old; I meditate on all that you have done; I ponder the work of your hands. I stretch out my hands to you; my soul thirsts for you like a parched land. Answer me quickly, O Lord! My spirit fails! Hide not your face from me, lest I be like those who go down to the pit. Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love, for in you I trust. Make me know the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul. Deliver me from my enemies, O Lord! I have fled to you for refuge. Teach me to do your will, for you are my God! Let your good Spirit lead me on level ground!” Here are 4 things to start tomorrow to reclaim your mornings:1. Start with God before social media. Before the notifications. Before the comparison. Before the chaos. Spend time grounding yourself spiritually. 2. Hydrate immediately- we wake up dehydrated from rest so drink water before coffee. 16-20 ounces first thing. 3. Eat a balanced breakfast- Eat within one hour of waking up. This can look like a banana, toast with a tsp peanut butter and two eggs. Eat something! Skipping breakfast often leads to: cravings-overeating-later-low energy-blood sugar crashes.4. Move your body 15-20 minutes to start 3-4 days a week. Move up to 20-30 minutes as you feel stronger. NOT HIIT workouts ladies over 40, strength training, walking, stretching, mobility work. Movement creates momentum and it adds up!Here’s an idea of a morning routine you can start tomorrow:Wake up 15-20 minutes earlyPrayer + BibleWaterBreakfast10 minute walkSimple. Sustainable.Most Holy Father, Help us begin our days with peace and wisdom. Teach us to create routines that support our health and our relationship with You. Give us consistency in the small things. Forgive me Father for rushing and wasting time on social, lead me to new paths, your paths. Help me to lean into your steadfast promises to guide me as I implement a new discipline in my life. Let me give you my first fruits every day and show me how to love myself as I learn.

“Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul.” — 3 John 1:2Hard Truth -Your body changes after 40- Hormones shift. Muscle mass naturally decreases. Stress impacts weight more intensely. The answer is not: starving yourself -detox teas-1200 calorie diets-excessive cardio-Fat loss after 40 requires muscle support -The goal should never be skinny or lighter on the scale, but toned, lean and flexible. These are the keys to a healthy life.That means: prioritizing protein-strength training-walking consistently-sleeping well-managing stress- Consistency beats intensity - Consistency is what changes your body. A simple plan repeated for months will outperform perfection for seven days.3 Fixes:1: Eat protein at every meal - Aim for 25–35 grams of protein. Examples: eggs and turkey sausage-Greek yogurt and berries-chicken salad-cottage cheese-salmon --Protein helps preserve muscle, balance blood sugar, and keeps you full.Step 2: Walk daily - Working up to 8,000- Start with: 20–30 minutes daily- did you know that walking for 2 minutes after you eat helps regulate your blood sugar? Walking supports fat loss, hormones, blood sugar, and mood.Step 3: Stop restarting- You do not need another “all or nothing” plan. Sustainable transformation often looks boring: protein-walking-sleep-strength training-consistency-renewing your mind- boring works. Heavenly Father, Thank You for creating our bodies with wisdom and purpose. Help me stop chasing extremes and start walking in consistency, discipline and Holy Spirit led strength. Renew my mind where I’ve believed lies about my worth being in my weight of my size. Teach me to steward my health in a way that honors You Lord. And thank You for grace when I need it. Give me patience for lasting transformation, transformation in my life and thoughts that point me back to You Lord, that is the true transformation I yearn for. I want my life, my body, my choices to be a reflection of You alone Jesus. It’s in Your Most Holy Name I pray, Amen. Action Step: Add protein to every meal & Walk 20 minutes daily.Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

Proverbs 4:1 “Hear, O sons, a father's instruction, and be attentive, that you may gain insight, for I give you good precepts; do not forsake my teaching." Proverbs 4:4; "Get wisdom; get insight; do not forget, and do not turn away from the words of my mouth."Proverbs 4:12 "When you walk, your step will not be hampered, and if you run, you will not stumble.

The way of the wicked is like deep darkness; they do not know over what they stumble."Proverbs 26-27; “Ponder the path of your feet; then all your ways will be sure.

 1 Corinthians 15:32-34 “ What do I gain if, humanly speaking, I fought with beasts at Ephesus? If the dead are not raised, “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die.” Do not be deceived: “Bad company ruins good morals.  Wake up from your drunken stupor, as is right, and do not go on sinning. For some have no knowledge of God. I say this to your shame.”  Romans 14:21, “:It is good not to eat meat or drink wine or do anything that causes your brother to stumble.”4 Steps to Start:STEP 1: CLEAN YOUR ENVIRONMENTSTEP 2: ADD SUPPORTSTEP 3: CREATE DEFAULT HABITSSTEP 4: PROTECT YOUR FOCUSIf you keep surrounding yourself with triggers you’ll keep falling into the same patterns.

Proverbs 23:7 “For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.” But, there’s hope! Beliefs can change, praise God! And when they do—everything changes.Here are a few steps to take today to help you realign your beliefs:STEP 1: IDENTIFY THE LIE - What are you believing about yourself? Be honest. Ask the Lord to reveal all you need to know, this will take time. This is daily praying Psalm 139:23-24. STEP 2: REPLACE IT WITH TRUTH - Not your opinion—God’s truth. 2 Corinthians 5:17 “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come."STEP 3: ACT LIKE THE NEW VERSION OF YOU- Even before it feels natural. Identity is built through action. Fake it til ya make it baby! STEP 4: STOP REINFORCING THE OLD STORY - Your words matter. Stop saying: “I can’t” “I always fail” or I’ll try. Action Step: As you journal this week ask the Lord what belief is keeping you stuck? Write what you know and anything else He reveals. Ask Him to take it, then lay it at the foot of the cross.Lord, Renew my mind. Help me see myself the way You see me Father, help me to claim victory when the journey feels so long. Let me look only at today Lord and how I can honor You with my life and my choices. Break the lies I’ve been believing and replace them with You Truth. Thank You for new mercies Father, help me to listen to the Holy Spirit inside me. I love You Jesus.

“But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.” Joshua 24:15Here are a few steps you can take today:STEP 1: ACT IMMEDIATELY - When you feel that nudge—move. Not later. Not eventually. Now. James 1:22 “Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.” STEP 2: LOWER THE BAR - You don’t need a perfect plan. You need a starting point.  5-minute walk -  One healthy choice -  One “no” to temptation. 5-4-3-2-1-GO! Make a healthy choice!STEP 3: STOP OVERTHINKING - Overthinking delays action. Action creates clarity. STEP 4: BUILD TRUST WITH YOURSELF - Every time you follow through, you prove something: “I CAN do this.” “I keep my word.” Action Step for today is to ACT. Take ONE step. What is one thing you already know God is asking you to DO that you keep putting off in your health journey? Journal it and ask Him to help you take one step.Father, I love You so much. Please Lord, forgive me for delaying what You’ve made clear. Give me courage to act today not tomorrow. I want what You want for my life Jesus, I know I have so much life to live. Help me to honor You with my actions, help me be a person of action Lord. Help me become someone who follows through with what You lead me to Lord. Show me how to do it. Amen. Amen.

 Psalm 34:18; “The Lord is near to the brokenhearted and saves the crushed in spirit.” Proverbs 23:2 “and put a knife to your throat if you are given to gluttony.”Here are 4 ways to start today:STEP 1: IDENTIFY YOUR ESCAPE MOMENTS- Start noticing your pattern. STEP 2: SIT IN THE DISCOMFORT (JUST FOR A MOMENT) -Instead of immediately reaching for food…Pause and sit in what you feel. STEP 3: REPLACE ESCAPE WITH CONNECTION- Instead of numbing: Pray out loud- Journal what you’re feeling- Turn on worship music -  Step outside and breathe STEP 4: SHORTEN THE ESCAPE LOOP - Let’s be real—you might still fail at times, but instead of spiraling for an hour or a day take a breath.Action Step: As you feel the craving, pause and ask yourself why you’re craving what you’re craving. Then say, Lord lead me. Will you do that? Journal what you hear.Holy Father, Help me stop running from what I feel. Give me courage to sit in discomfort and bring it to You.

1 Thessalonians 5:17-24: Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.  Do not quench the Spirit.  Do not despise prophecies,  but test everything; hold fast what is good.  Abstain from every form of evil. Now may the God of peace himself sanctify you completely, and may your whole spirit and soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls you is faithful; he will surely do it.PRACTICAL STEPS:1: CALL IT WHAT IT IS- 1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us.2: SET CLEAR BOUNDARIESMatthew 5:33-37; Again you have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not swear falsely, but shall perform to the Lord what you have sworn.’ But I say to you, Do not take an oath at all, either by heaven, for it is the throne of God, or by the earth, for it is his footstool, or by Jerusalem, for it is the city of the great King. And do not take an oath by your head, for you cannot make one hair white or black.  Let what you say be simply ‘Yes’ or ‘No’; anything more than this comes from evil.3: DECIDE AHEAD OF TIME- Proverbs 22:3-4: The prudent sees danger and hides himself, but the simple go on and suffer for it. The reward for humility and fear of the Lord is riches and honor and life.Proverbs 21:5; The plans of the diligent lead surely to abundance, but everyone who is hasty comes only to poverty.4: REPLACE—DON’T JUST REMOVE- Romans 13:14 Put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh.5: STOP JUSTIFYING- James 1:14: Each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire.God, Show me where I’ve been compromising. I mean, let’s be real Father, I know there are areas I know of, but I’m guessing there are others I’ve looked past. Give me clarity on what needs to change and help me stop negotiating and start walking in obedience. I’m so sick of my complacency and excuses. Thank You that You love me and only see good in me Lord. I know I don’t have to earn anything from You, but I do want to honor and glorify you in my choices, my thoughts and my actions. Strengthen me to follow through Lord, with the power of Your Holy Spirit that lives in me. Thank You Jesus, it’s in Your Name I pray, Amen.ACTION STEP: Decide what your “no” is, pray for strength, then stick to it.

Galatians 5:16-17 “But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.

Proverbs 3:5-6; one we hear and quote often, but do we actually live it out? “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make straight your path.”PRACTICAL STEPS:1: PAUSE BEFORE YOU EAT - Psalm 46:10 “Be still, and know that I am God.” STEP 2: SAY IT OUT LOUD TO GODPsalm 62:8 “Pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us.” God is not asking you to hide your emotions. He’s inviting you to bring them.STEP 3: WAIT 5-10 MINUTESProverbs 16:32 “Whoever is slow to anger is better than the mighty…”STEP 4: CHOOSE TRUST OVER COMFORT1 Peter 5:7 “Casting all your anxieties on him, because he cares for you.”Heavenly Father, I confess that I’ve been turning to food instead of You.

Matthew 28:5–6  says, “The angel said to the women, ‘Don’t be afraid! I know you are looking for Jesus… He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead, just as he said would happen.’”The stone wasn’t rolled away so Jesus could get out. It was rolled away so we could see in!! Death did not win!!Resurrection life means: Your past does not define you.  Your sin is not final. Your old self is buried. Your future is alive.Resurrection is not a metaphor. It is victory. And that victory now shapes your choices. You don’t live like someone defeated. You live like someone redeemed!! And God’s second commandment, to love others as yourself is a call to be the hands and feet of Jesus.Easter is not an ending; it is commissioning to go live differently, to share your story. Go forgive quicker. Go repent faster, to surrender daily. So, GO walk in His resurrection power and let the Holy Spirit speak through you and use you as He desires. The tomb is empty. So your excuses are too.Jesus, oh sweet Holy Jesus! Thank You for the Cross. Thank You for the tomb. Thank You for resurrection power, for ascension and that You are living in me! Let Easter be my mindset for daily living. Let me live every day like the tomb is empty, because it is. Praise God!

Matthew 26:17- On the first day of the Festival of Unleavened Bread, the disciples came to Jesus and asked, “Where do you want us to make preparations for you to eat the Passover?” He replied, “Go into the city to a certain man and tell him, ‘The Teacher says: My appointed time is near. I am going to celebrate the Passover with my disciples at your house.’” So the disciples did as Jesus had directed them and prepared the Passover. When evening came, Jesus was reclining at the table with the Twelve. And while they were eating, he said, “Truly I tell you, one of you will betray me.” They were very sad and began to say to him one after the other, “Surely you don’t mean me, Lord?” Jesus replied, “The one who has dipped his hand into the bowl with me will betray me. The Son of Man will go just as it is written about him. But woe to that man who betrays the Son of Man! It would be better for him if he had not been born.” Revelation 2:4–5: “I have this complaint against you. You don’t love me or each other as you did at first! Look how far you have fallen! Turn back to me and do the works you did at first.”Luke 9:23; “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross daily, and follow me.”Most Holy Father, Thank You for this season of Lent. Thank You for this Holy Day. Thank You for what today represents to Your followers. Thank You for going to the cross for me Jesus, but thank You especially for your resurrection and ascension. Thank You that You don’t want me to do life on my own or have to figure things out. Thank You that You want to do it all for me! What a gift. I know I often take it for granted and make life too hard. I release it all to You Jesus! Thank You that Sunday is coming, thank You for the reminder that even You agonized to God. Thank You for what You exposed in me this Lent, for all You healed, corrected, restored and strengthened. I don’t want to drift again. Keep my heart focused on spending time with You first Lord. Keep my focus on You. Keep my obedience steady. Let surrender be my lifestyle. Let resurrection power shape my choices. Thank You Father, that while I cannot begin to fathom Your power, I know You love me and are with me always. Let me live as though I know it every moment of every day. It is in Your most Holy and Precious Name I pray. Amen.Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

1 Corinthians 15:14; “And if Christ has not been raised, then all our preaching is useless, and your faith is useless.”Romans 6:4: “Just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glorious power of the Father, now we also may live new lives.” Picture Jesus hanging on the cross. Close your eyes. Can you see Him hanging there? A crown of thorns digging into His skull, beaten, bloody, bruised, hanging in agony, surrounded by criminals and people laughing at Him, taunting him with vinegar wine, a puncture in his side. Take a second to ask Him what He needs you to surrender, to give up, and what to pick up. Spirit of God, I have believed I was powerless. I have accepted my unhealthy excuses and patterns as permanent. I have excused weakness as identity. But You raised Jesus from the dead and You live in me. Break the lies that keep my stuck Lord. Strengthen my heart Lord and help me walk in obedience. Remind me that temptation is not ownership. Teach me to walk in the newness of life that only comes from You. I receive Your AWESOME resurrection power Father and I thank You again and again for Your sacrifice. Let me never take it for granted again. It’s in the Holy Name of Jesus I pray, Amen.Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

Matthew 6:16–18, “When you fast, don’t make it obvious, as the hypocrites do. But when you fast, comb your hair and wash your face. Then no one will notice that you are fasting, except your Father, who knows what you do in private.”Fasting can quietly become:• A badge of honor • A proof of maturity • A way to feel superior • A method of controlYou can fast and still be self-focused. You can sacrifice and still crave recognition. And Lent is the season where God gently strips that. Fasting is not spiritual theater. It is hidden hunger for God. If anyone praises your fast, you already received your reward. But if it remains unseen? The Father sees. Fasting with the right heart fasting is: Quiet.  Honest. Humble. Dependent. It says: “I need You more than I need this.” Not: “Look how strong I am.” Or let me replace this with that. It’s give me more of you Jesus.Joel 2:13: “Don’t rend your clothing in your grief, but rend your hearts instead.”Instead of asking; “How long should I fast?” Ask: “What is shaping me more than God right now?” Instead of asking: “What can I handle giving up?” Ask: “What do I defend?” What makes you slightly irritated when someone suggests you limit it? That might be your master. Father, Search my motives. If I am fasting to prove something, correct me. If I am sacrificing to control outcomes, humble me. If I am giving something up but not giving You my heart, soften me. I don’t want performance. I want You Jesus. Only Your Holy Presence. Teach me to hunger for You more than the desires of the world. Let every craving turn me toward You God. I ask this again, in Jesus’s most Holy Name. Amen.Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

Galatians 2:20; “My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me.” The old self negotiates. It says: “I’ll fast — but I’ll keep this.” “I’ll surrender — but not that.” “I’ll obey — but only if it’s comfortable.” The old self wants partial obedience. Lent exposes where partial obedience still lives. Where are you struggling today?The old self: • Seeks control over surrender • Seeks comfort over obedience • Seeks validation over identity • Seeks appetite over discipline.Romans 6:6; “We know that our old sinful selves were crucified with Christ so that sin might lose its power in our lives.” Romans 7:15-19; “I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. For I know that good itself does not dwell in me, that is, in my sinful nature. For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing.” Father, forgive us. We’re trying too hard and we’re done. We’re tired. Our flesh is in a constant battle with You Lord and we want You to win! We’re rooting for YOU! Change us, break us, REND OUR HEARTS JESUS! Rid me of myself Lord, I belong to You. I rebuke the enemy in my life; I rebuke my fleshy desires. I ache only for You Lord. Thank You for loving me enough to go to the cross, thank You for taking that burden on, You knew I would never make it on my own. Thank You that I don’t have to. Lead me Jesus, help me finish this season of Lent with new perspective and obedience that will lead me in the next season. I want my life to be a testimony to You alone, show me how Lord. It’s in Your Most Holy and Precious Name I pray, Amen. Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

Isaiah 53:5; “But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed.” 1 Peter 2:24 says, “He himself bore our sins in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his woulds you have been healed.” Jesus, why do I keep living in my sin? I don’t want to, I ache to be free and live for You. Don’t let me rush past the Cross Lord; show me the weight of what You carried for me, awaken a spirit within me Lord and help me feel the seriousness of sin without slipping into shame. I want to see clearly Lord, I want to live free of this burden. Thank You for taking it for me Lord. I am laying it down and picking up Your righteousness today. I receive Your blessing Lord. Romans chapter 5:8, “But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners.” The Cross does two things at once:Anything we turn to for relief, identity, or escape can quietly replace dependence on Him and becomes an idol and sin in our lives. The Cross gently but firmly says: “Come back.” Father, I do not take the cross lightly. I know it cost You everything Jesus. Forgive me for being complacent and living in compromise. Where I’ve treated sin lightly Lord, convict me. Where I’ve excused patterns, strengthen my resolve. I bring my habits to the Cross. My cravings. My compromises. My hidden things. I lay them down at Your feet Lord. Thank You that confrontation and conviction are not rejection. Thank You that the Cross is proof of love. I surrender again, over and over Lord. I love You so much. Amen.Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

2 Corinthians 7:10 says,  “For the kind of sorrow God wants us to experience leads us away from sin and results in salvation. There’s no regret for that kind of sorrow. But worldly sorrow, which lacks repentance, results in spiritual death.” Godly sorrow says:• “That wasn’t aligned.” • “I see what I did.” • “I want to change.” • “Lord, help me.” It is honest. It is humble. But it is hopeful. It pulls you toward God. Godly sorrow says: “I messed up.” Shame says: “I am a mess.” See the difference?What Shame Feels Like Shame says: • “You always do this.” • “You’ll never change.”  • “Why even try?” • “You might as well quit.”Father, forgive me, I have partnered with shame and spoke harsh words over myself. I have exaggerated my failures and made my life about me. Help me to get over myself Jesus. Help me to have the conviction to stand in Your promises, the way You did in the wilderness Jesus. I have spoken identity statements over temporary behavior, Lord but I release this shame in Your Holy Name Lord. Teach me to receive correction without self-hatred Lord and help me to walk humbly with You leading the way. I want this season of Lent to be about You Lord and getting back to constant and continual connection with my Heavenly Father, show me how Lord. I need You in every moment of every day. Amen.Psalm 51:17 we read; “The sacrifice you desire is a broken spirit. You will not reject a broken and repentant heart, O God.” We can Practice Godly Sorrow:Here’s how:Name the behavior clearly.Take responsibility without exaggeration.Ask for help.Move forward immediately.Lord, I’ve missed the mark and I’m sorry. I take responsibility and I release the shame. Forgive me for false humility, cleanse my thinking. Strengthen my discipline. Let my sorrow produce change, not self-hatred. Thank You for Your mercy Father, I need it every day. Let me live with Holy Spirit conviction in all I do and say. I love You Lord, Amen.Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach.

 Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.  After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry.  The tempter came to him and said, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.” Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’ Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down. For it is written:“‘He will command his angels concerning you,    and they will lift you up in their hands,    so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’Jesus answered him, “It is also written: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’  Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. “All this I will give you,” he said, “if you will bow down and worship me.” Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve him only. Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended him." Matthew 4:1-11The wilderness tests three things:AppetiteIdentityAllegianceAppetite — will you obey hunger? Identity — do you know who you are without proving it?  Allegiance — who do you bow to for relief? Lent is not about proving spiritual strength. You fast to remind your body: “You are not in charge.” Most Holy Father, thank You for the reminder of Your struggle in the wilderness. Thank You for the example You set. Give me the strength to live with the resurrection power Your word says I have. Help me to stay penetrated in the word, help me to live my life in constant prayer. Give me what I need Jesus. I ache to connect to You, to be more like You, to lay down my flesh and walk daily with You. Help me Jesus. I love You so much.
