Thank you for this!! I needed to hear this and be encouraged today!!
I just love to taste sugar 😮
Bags of Snacks have really bad for you, addicting ingredients!
Buy and use your money for Food (as organic as possible) .. gluten free if you can….and not junk.
Church and Christian Friends should be Vegan… no Cane Sugar & only a little bit of salt! No artificial ingredients or preservatives…
Myoo😮 😅o
Thank you 😊
I love ice cream
I feel all this and don’t eat horrible and my husband says I don’t overall either but cannot loose weight unless I eat salad.
There is nothing wrong with eating ice cream, chips, chocolate etc. The KEY is moderation. You must eat healthy foods, get full, then later have a.snack. walk. Exercise, stretch. Drink a lot of water.
Great Show! Food addiction is real. For me, it was a spiritual illness. 70 pounds gone for 2.5 years so far. Don’t give up. ❤
This came across my feed today. Wow…i needed to hear this. Ive been really struggling lately and turning to food to cope. 3 years ago i was at my lowest weight and ive gained almost all of it back. I need to make a change. I'm starting today!
I can def relate. Thank you Amber.
I've learned at 65. my body is a temple for the Holy Spirit. it's freeing.
🎉🎉yesss you’re moving literally like an artist 🎉stroking a painting on a canvas 😂beautifully ❤🎉🎉🎉
Oh my gosh! Feeling you don't have a purpose! Her story is my story!
Loneliness is a big trigger and it’s daily if you live by yourself and not that outgoing. It’s mixed with stress from having to handle everything yourself. Food is your best friend for relieving loneliness and stress. But it’s so temporary and you just have to eat more and more.
When I’m with others I don’t really want to overeat. So that’s not a problem then. Living with a relative I lost weight without even trying to. I had someone to talk to about anything, fun stuff or something I was going through at the time. Loneliness and stress was lowered. Then when back by myself I overeat again. It seems I go a bit crazy if I don’t use food to get through the loneliness. The stress makes me feel frozen in place so I can’t do anything except eat lots of carbs.
You did not mention loneliness. I know you have a family so that is not your trigger. Not sure if that is in your book but it should be. There are so many people living alone and not liking it.
This is a “deny” approach. Most foods can be cooked in an extremely healthy way, like zucchini noodles in lasagna. Look up the THM plan.
Look in the Trim Healthy Mama eating plan in their books.
Tammy who ????
Great interview!
Many Latin cultures are going to need the "renewing of the mind" Lord help us! 🤦
😜😂🙏💛
The best way to drop those pounds is to get the sugared items out of the house. That is the biggest culprit. Ice cream is a big fat NO NO! It is extremely, unhealthy! Do the research. Never eat boxed food. It's man made and not food; and the list goes on. The best way to be healthy is to cut-out the sugar as much as possible and only eat Organic non GMO food. Again, do the research. And it's important to weigh yourself everyday. How can you control your body weight if you don't know what it is? When I feel like over eating, I trick my brain into thinking I don't need the food, or as much. Then I don't feel hungry. I WIN!
I also give myself the opportunity to eat whatever i want, but just 2 or 3 small bites. So basically if i go to a gathering with food, i can taste everything i want to, i just don't eat a whole serving.

AMEN and HALELUJAH!! The Church is dying and as sickly as the world. We need Pastors, Godly leaders and missionaries to finish well and run the race in health and wholeness. Thank you for airing this…much neglected message but extremely timely.
I wish more people would be sensitive to eating disorders. There's so much out there food shaming etc. Diet culture.
Maybe in América people are dying of over eating bu seriously there are a lot of countries that have no food!! America too. So show me statistics where did u get that information?
Thank you so very much !! Amber, you spoke to me tenderly, and my hope is that you also touched the hearts of many others who are ready to hear your helpful, wise counsel as someone who was divinely lead to share your journey and write about solutions!! Grateful 💞
Thank you for this! I've been doing smoothie detoxes for about two yrs now. I'm so trained now and I never thought I could say no to stress eating. 20 lbs down for over a year now!
The "health couching" she and so many others claim to offer are through mlm type companies… that want you to push their product and program on your friends and family. Please be careful and cautious. Not all that glitters is gold.
Thanks for this program! I need more of this…more programs about this topic!
Is this optavia based?
I Will be Back on Sunday (if they don't have rerun)!
I loved this but…don't think enough was said about how adopting new eating habits doesn't mean you enter into a lifestyle of deprivation or lack of enjoyment. You CAN EAT healthy AND enjoy your food. It's partly retraining your mind to enjoy foods that are more nutritional and being aware of portion control. I wish they had talked about how healthy food really can be DELICIOUS!!
Hallelujah amen lord lord
this is just what i needed! sharing it with my family! Thank you!
Work has been so stressful for me. All of the points Amber brought up are great…quiet time with God, exercise for stress management, casting our cares…as I have my prayer, Bible, journal time with God this morning I will cast my care about my work day on Him. 🙏🆙️
Overeating is the most acceptable sin in the Church. Alcohol, drugs, and porn use are all behaviors more often confronted than is using food to comfort our souls. And it can destroy relationships just as easily as the aforementioned idols.
