“So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.” —1 Corinthians 10:31. 

Macros — short for macronutrients — are simply the nutrients your body needs:
-Protein -Carbohydrates -Fats

1. Protein is Your Body’s Building Block
Protein is the most important macro for weight loss. It helps repair and build muscle, keeps you full longer, and supports your metabolism. Protein IS the difference in reaching your weight loss goal!

2. Carbs or carbohydrates are Your Body’s Fuel, your energy for the day.
Carbs often get a bad reputation, but your body and your brain need them. Carbs, the RIGHT carbs are your body’s main source of energy. The key is to choose quality carbs: Fruits and vegetables, Whole grains like oats, rice, potatoes, quinoa.  Legumes like beans and lentils.

3. Fats: Your Body’s Hormone Helper
Healthy fats are essential — especially for women. They support hormones, help absorb vitamins, and keep your skin, hair, and brain healthy. 

Instead of obsessing over numbers, try this simple, faith-filled approach to balance your meals visually:

• ½ your plate: vegetables; like broccoli, peppers, spinach, cauliflower, anything in season. Squash is a great option! And eating 4-6 cups of veggies daily will help you reach your fiber goal, go number two and lean out all at the same time! 
• ¼ your plate: lean protein- I like to aim for 6-8 ounces per meal, or 25-30 grams per meal, eating 4-6 times per day. It will take about a week for your body to adjust, do your best and keep going!
• ¼ your plate: healthy carbs (like sweet potatoes, beans or rice)
• Add: a thumb-size serving of healthy fat, a dash of salt and you’re on your way to a more balanced approach!
  
  Thank You “Father for creating our bodies with such care and purpose. You designed us to thrive, to have energy, and to serve You well. Help us to see food as a gift — not as the enemy. Teach us to fuel our bodies with wisdom, to eat with peace, and to trust You to guide our choices. Remind us that balance is holy, and that we can glorify You even in what we eat and drink. We give this journey — and our health — back to You. In Jesus’ name, 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.
