Looking for Christian Motivation for Weight Loss

Posts: 11
I'm looking for any motivation to lose weight from the Bible and/or from other Christians. I've yo-yo'ed the past few years and need to get my spirit "into the game" -- I believe in the Abundant Life Christ came to offer. But, something is missing between my desires to lose weight and my actions. Any help or support would be fantastic!
Thanks!
Thanks!

And let us run with endurance the race that is set before us looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith Hebrews 12: 1-2

Congrats on the success you've had so far! I'm still an ongoing journey to reclaim the temple for God!0

Check out the book Made to Crave. It has changed my whole perspective on weight loss. Good luck!0

A couple weeks ago I realized that what I have been is a glutton. Psalms 23:20-21 says
"Be not among drunkards or among gluttonous eaters of meat, for the drunkard and the glutton will come to poverty, and slumber will clothe them with rags." So that is helping me a lot right now.

Feel free to add me. I am a Christian, and I am motivated, but I don't know if that is what you want.
Also, a heads up: these posts usually turn sour, and end up locked. I have seen it happen a few times.0 -

Thanks for all the help here, I am looking forward to sharing my journey with fellow believers. If you get a chance, check out my blogs. I am working on putting some together for a Christian Healthy Lifestyle Support Group. Praying for all my new friends that they would find the same love and support through Christ that I have found here.

That is what I am looking for too.
Actually, I just started Made to Crave by Lysa TerKeurst and it has been helping me so much. It is scripture based to help you renew your mind. I would love to be a part of a group that supports honoring God with all that we are: body, soul and spirit. I would love to share this journey with you.0 -
Hello All, I too am trying to network with fellow believers to get through this struggle and to keep positive about other things. I am new to this type of social environment so please be gentle. How do I make this topic my primary message board? I want this to be the first thing that pops up! God bless and talk to you soon.

Count me in We can do all things through Christ! Nice to have a family of believers for support. It's not a race, it's a marathon. LIfe changes that are long term do not happen overnight...0
