What does a Christian Diet look like?

So many people ask me what makes Grace and Strength (a Christian diet) better than any other diet. My answer, EVERYTHING! We are a solid group of believers that no matter what journey or season of life we are in....we are not alone. We strive to lean on the Lord and the WORD in all aspects of our lives. Except when it comes to food and weight. So many people feel the shame of being over weight as their own problem. When we really need to give those worries to God.

Being on a Christian diet offers so many advantages. For instance, your group! The ladies in my group are just like family. They talk about everything, yes, I do mean EVERYTHING! They swap clothes (someone always wants your "too big" clothes)! They arrange get togethers! They support and encourage each other. Most importantly, they pray for each other! They pray as they eat, they pray as they run, they pray ....a lot! The picture above is Monica Hemmings prayer arm. Today, she ran over 4 miles and remembered each and every person to pray for!

You are accountable to your coach....and your other group mates! We have private chat groups so you are never far from a friend! Here are some common things said in our private groups:

"Prayed for my G & S girls today!"

"TODAY IS THE FIRST TIME IN 23 YEARS THAT I HAVE WEIGHED LESS THAN MY HUSBAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"Ok, so I've noticed over the last week or so- I've been getting very uncomfortable sitting! Today realized, it's because I can feel my bones... NEVER had that sensation before! No longer have enough "junk in the trunk" to cushion my butt bones :0)"

"6 flights of stairs before 7:30 am. CHECK!"

"Welcome Welcome. Just so you know... We happy dance a lot in this group. So get your groove on... we're all on the pathway to better health! :-)"

"Today...May our hearts and flesh cry out for more of God ...over the temptation to reach out to food. #onwardprotocol

Psalm 84:1-2"

"Partial obedience is still disobedience.

But Samuel replied, "What is more pleasing to the LORD: your burnt offerings and sacrifices or your obedience to his voice? Listen! Obedience is better than sacrifice, and submission is better than offering the fat of rams. (1 Sam 15:22)"

Our Grace and Strength groups get close, we share, we learn, we pray! We are so much more than just a Christian Diet.
