A faith-based weight loss program is making headline news. This diet isn’t new as it’s been around for over 15 years. The founder of Weigh Down is Gwen Shamblis. She started using the principles in this program in 1986 and has been thin ever since.
The diet is called Weight Down Diet. Participants can attend The Weight Down Workshops, use the online classes or request an At Home Kit. Live counselors are available to provide guidance. You can even start a chapter in your locale if Weigh Down isn’t in your vicinity.
After visiting their website and reviewing a half-hour video, I’m sold. What’s essentially different about this weight loss program over countless of other diets is, having the root of the problem discovered. It deals with the heart. Counselors lovingly work with the heart and a genuine desire not to overeat.
There are no special foods to buy or restrictions. There are no calories, fat grams, sugars or carbs to count. No food scales or measuring cups are needed. Everyone in the household can eat the same things without special meal preparations. This is different however if other medical or health problems requires special meals for a family member. You eat until you get a cue [from your body] that you are full and no longer hunger.
Thousands have finally made the connection with their heart and abusive habits, whether overeating, using drugs or other addictive behaviours. This program bridges the gap between spirituality and health; there is a spiritual link between spiritual health and addictions. Weigh Down has been a powerful tool to show the link between them. By turning to God, you turn away from addictions and begin to live life in His honor.
The Christian principles followed in Weigh Down teach you to eat in moderation and only when your body is calling for food. Dieters find a new freedom to enjoy all their old favorites with no guilt, no cheating, and no restrictions —other than “God's perfect boundaries of hunger and fullness."
Gluttony is out! Weight Down is in! The website offers many testimonials of successful lifestyle changes made by hundreds. The program emphasizes gender is of no consequence in following this program. Men and women alike have lost from 20 to hundreds of pounds over the years and have kept the pounds off for years.
A fad wouldn’t last over 15 years, would it? This program is worth looking into if you’re serious about making lifestyle changes from a faith-based perspective. What a wonderful combination: losing weight and gaining spiritually.
