When you've had enough!

When you've had enough!

This blog is written for those of you who are trying to create lasting change. 

For those of you tired of sabotaging your progress by going back and forth between honoring your commitment and giving in to urges.  

The reason you are finding it hard is that the thinking patterns you have been using in the past are not the patterns that will build the future you desire.  

The good news is that we can handle it.  We have a brain that is made in the image of God.  

Here is a way of looking at it.

That part of my life is over now.  It is completed.  That's how I feel about overeating and eating so much food that I feel sick, and living a life of unconsciousness when it comes to food.  That part of my life is now over. I've had enough. 

Would you consider looking at your own journey this way instead of it being something that you're giving up for a time and you will always be longing for like it's a missing part of your life?

I want you to change your thinking around it and think of it as something you've completed, something you're done doing. 

It's not something you're taking away from yourself. 

It is something you're just complete with. 

It feels like freedom.

It feels like "I've had enough."

You're not missing out on it anymore because you're finished with it. 

When I work with my clients, they discover that food is not the "enemy". 

They discover that they are more empowered than they ever imagined.

How? 

Together we dig into and uncover the truth and the strength that has been within all along.  

 Everything we could ever need for life and complete devotion to God has already been deposited in us by his divine power. For all this was lavished upon us through the rich experience of knowing him who has called us by name and invited us to come to him through a glorious manifestation of his goodness. As a result of this, he has given you magnificent promises that are beyond all price, so that through the power of these tremendous promises you can experience partnership with the divine nature, by which you have escaped the corrupt desires that are of the world.-
2 Peter 1:3-4

And this is what makes all the difference! 

Our behavior and our choices are an echo of our beliefs. 

When we believe we are "image-bearers" we act like "image-bearers".

Even when it comes to food choices.  

You can try to figure this out all on your own.  You can continue in the self- destructive shaming. You can give up one more time because you think something is wrong with you.

OR

You are worth it,
Peggy

The One Thing You Need to Know...

The One Thing You Need to Know...  What is it?  What is the one thing you need to know in order to achieve your goals? If your goal is to lose weight, is the one thing you need to know, a diet , powder or pill? If your goal is to manage your time, is the one thing you need to know, the best planner? If your goal is to exercise, is the one thing you need to know, the best workout? If your goal is to have more self confidence, is the one thing you need to know, the best mantras? Would you believe me if I told you that the one thing you need to know for accomplishing   any goal does not come from outside of you?  It comes from within.  One day, I was hosting a group call with my coaching clients, and I asked the question, "What is the one thing you need to know in order to continue in the wellness steps we have been practicing?" I listened to the answers from the group and then they asked me the one thing I needed to know. My ...

Are You Okay With It Taking Time?

Are You Okay With It Taking Time?  Every change we make, every accomplishment we achieve takes a certain amount of time.   We could even agree that the greatest accomplishments take more time.   But when it comes to losing weight, we want it to be fast.  This messes with our mind, our emotions and our commitment. I want you to think about when you enrolled in college.  You decided on a field of study and a degree you set out to earn and graduate.   Or, you can think about High School.  You set out to graduate.   When you signed up, you expected that it would take a number of days you would need to continue taking action.  You made a plan, followed through and repeated.....Over and over and over.   When you were a sophomore, did you say to yourself, "I haven't graduated yet I think I'll quit?" In the 6th month of your Senior year did you throw up your hands and stop completing the requ...

The New Normal

The New Normal How do we decide what normal eating is? Who decides?  Is it us or is it culture? Is it my thoughts, or society's thoughts? What is the association we are creating with our thoughts about food being part of our life events? Do we really need pizza and beer to make watching football more enjoyable?  Do we need to have sugary treats to celebrate the Holidays? I personally, had to spend time questioning my involvement in spreading this confusion during family gatherings. One of the qualities I wanted to be known for was to be a good cook.  I had to decide what I thought a "good cook" meant to me.  Was it to bake foods that were loaded with mind altering substances? Or, could I decide that preparing food that was actually higher on the nutritional scale is of more value? Hmm, what an interesting question.  What is my new normal? Another question I asked myself is, "How am I going to feel after I eat those mind-altering foods?  W...
