Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach, encourager and friend. 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 over 90 of those pounds. I’ve been working with women in online fitness and nutrition ever since.
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. You’ve got this sister, now go grab your pre-workout or third coffee like me and let’s chat!
XX, Lindy

“So if the Son sets you free, you are truly free.” John 8:36 We read Matthew 6: 16-18 last week, but I think it's an important reminder. “When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting.

But when you fast, put oil on your head and wash your face, 1so that it will not be obvious to others that you are fasting, but only to your Father, who is unseen; and your F...

“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.

“For we are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world.” Ephesians 6:12 When identity is secure in Christ: We seek Him and not sugar.

Maybe I’m very lucky, but usually I lose weight without problems if I need to. I eat enough to stay in the same shape. But my friend has issues with excess weight and gains quickly. Right now she follows a meal plan she made through the unimeal app. There’s a paid subscription, but if you want to cancel, it won’t be a problem https://unimeal.com/refund-policy. I really hope now she’ll manage not just to lose weight for a while, but to build new eating habits and follow a plan that doesn’t make her want to break down on her favorite chocolate.
