- The Grace and Strength Lifestyle
- Success Stories
I never really struggled with weight until my thirties. Last fall, I had a wakeup call when I heard my Rheumatologist tell me that she thought it might be a good idea to start a diet. She felt that losing weight would help my lab numbers and joint pain. After hearing those words, I was embarrassed and upset that I had not been taking care of myself. I had been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis 15 years ago at age 25. I was taking numerous medications that had various side effects. A typical day for me as a home care therapist was going through the fast food drive-thru 1-2 times/day. Being totally exhausted, I needed to be in bed by 7:00 PM every night. Having daily headaches/stomach aches was normal for me and I accepted that this would be my life.
Shortly after my doctor appointment I received an email that was forwarded from my sister. She wrote "watch this…I am going to start this program" The video was Cyndi Benson interviewing coach Bekah about her story and the Grace and Strength Lifestyle. I listened to it and was intrigued but felt that I wanted to watch my sister start the program to see if it really worked… I saw the benefits in her almost immediately, and I knew I wanted to start this.
When I look back at the beginning, even knowing what my doctor had said, my only goal was to lose weight for an upcoming family vacation. What I didn't realize was how God's subtle hand was pointing me towards something more than just losing some weight. The Lord has shown me through this program that weight loss is only one of the benefits of Grace and Strength but not the most important. My old life consisted of living with an autoimmune disorder, taking many medications for RA while dealing with side their effects. This program has been life changing. I no longer have headaches… I don't have any joint pain or stiffness… I am not tired by 7:00PM. I was even able to discontinue some of my medications!!
God has proven himself faithful by allowing me to meet my weight loss goal. In addition, I have learned healthy eating for myself and my family! Grace and Strength has helped me to grow in my Faith, and I am excited to share this program with others.
Thank you coach Bekah, Melissa, and Elaine for your support and prayers.
