How to Pray for Your Weight Loss Journey (Without Feeling Weird About It)

Do you believe that God Cares About Your Body and Your Journey

1 Peter 5:7 tells us “Give all your worries and cares to God, for He cares about you.”

That includes your cravings. Your energy. Your goals. Your struggle with self-control.

He’s not just with you in church or your quiet time—He’s with you at the fridge. At the drive-thru. At the gym.

Lets focus on Honest Prayers to encourage you on Your Journey

Here are 3 areas you can bring to God without shame:

1. Alignment Prayer:
    “God, help me want what You want for my health.”
   
   
   
2. Strength Prayer:
    “Lord, I’m weak in this area. Help me lean on Your strength when I want to quit.”
   
   
   
3. Identity Prayer:
    “Jesus, remind me that I am loved—whether I lose one more pound or not.”
   
   
   

Don’t pray out of:

• Shame (“I’m so disgusting, God”)
  
  
  
• Legalism (“If I eat perfectly, maybe You’ll bless me”)
  
  
  
• Control (“Fix my body on my timeline”)
  
  
  

Instead, pray out of surrender: “God, I trust You. Help me obey, even when I don’t see fast results.”

“God, thank You for the body You’ve given me. Help me to nourish it with love, not pressure. Help me to move with joy, not guilt. I surrender this journey to You. Make me strong in spirit and gentle with myself. Amen.”

Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?

Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach. I gained 100 pounds in my late twenties and struggled for years to get it off. Seven years ago, I found a basic system that worked and has helped me lose 90 of those pounds. I’ve been working with women in online fitness and nutrition ever since to break chains of diet culture, embrace their bodies and fueling instead of dieting.

In this podcast, I'll teach you how to:

• • Lose Weight in a Way that honors God without obsessing about the scale
  • Meal Plan and Prep for Your Family
  • Follow a MACRO based plan that allows you to eat the foods you love.
  • Recognize and pray through triggers keeping you stuck.
  • I’ll help you Plan your week and schedule your self-care time.
  • Cultivate a spirit of self-discipline in your workouts you actually enjoy.
  
  It's time to give God your health journey and watch Him make you new, from the inside, OUT.
