On the fence about joining Grace & Strength?? See what our clients are saying about us as they go through this Christian diet program/lifestyle change!!!

Each week, coaches get the chance to meet up with their groups through an online chat called Go To Meeting. We can usually see each other, chat and learn from one another. Sometimes, if people don't have webcam availability, they join over the phone and can participate that way! It is a wonderful way to build a cohesive group and create a family that meets up once a week. Everyone in the group is going through the Grace & Strength Lifestyle (even coaches are graduates of the program) together.

This is some of the feedback I have received lately from a few of my Monday night gals: *

"What I like about G&S is that its not only about losing weight, its about understanding how God made us, what He's provided for us, and what He wants for our lives. Its about trying to be the perfect person He made us to be - body, mind and spirit. For me, that can't happen alone - I need help and encouragement. As humans, we are made to be in community and our G&S group provides that for me throughout this difficult journey. There is accountability, yes, but more than that I hear God speaking to me through my groupmates. I'm constantly bombarded with temptation, doubt, desire to cheat, thoughts about never making it to my goal. Luckily when that happens, I've got an arsenal of encouragement to combat the enemy - messages on Facebook, texts from my coach, my teammate's recent 50lb loss that really did happen in REAL LIFE, scriptures that stick with me as I choose the grocery store asile without the candy chanting to myself "chose the narrow gate - narrow gate, NARROW GATE" and just the knowledge that I'm not alone. Most of the time I am "of the world" meaning I let myself get caught up in the world we humans have created, rather than letting God guide me through the world He created around me. This journey is one big way of stepping out of our world, my world, society's world and trying to live in His world, together."

"I am so very grateful for seeing weight loss that was medically thought to maybe not be possible. The weight gain of 90-95 lbs. in 3 months time was scary! This was due to medication I took short term for shrill headaches, prescribed by a neurologist. Many tests have been done, giving the conclusion that my hypothalamus must have been messed up by use of the medication. My body has been functioning in the "starvation" mode, making it virtually impossible to loose any weight. So, I am grateful for the Lord using G & S as the means to give me hope when modern medicine had nothing more to truly offer me."

"In the three months since I started my journey with G&S, I have seen a loss that I never thought possible. Not only loss of weight, but loss of excuses, loss of the food demons that have been plaguing me for my entire life, loss of fear that I would never be able to conquer my weight. And for every pound I have lost...I have also gained: more energy to play with my daughter, friendships that I never would have known, a deeper understanding of letting God and scripture guide my decisions, and belief in myself in this one area I never could believe in myself. Every person from G&S, from Cyndi, to the coaches, to the group members new and old, has affected me in some way along this journey, and I will always be thankful for this time of self-reflection, and this journey to matching my inner me to my outer me."

"I enjoy meeting with my group on a weekly basis. It is good to have the freedom to share from your heart and bounce things off of those who are on their weight loss journey themselves. It also is a blessing to be able to encourage one another throughout the week and give that little boost that keeps you going on the straight and narrow pathway of true success. Our group time is indeed a valuable tool and plays a key role in our weight loss journey. I am truly grateful for my group; my fantabulous coach Stacie and my wonderful group-mates! :0)"
