Several years ago, I taught a Take Back Your Temple small group class and a common theme emerged:
Many of the ladies had problems saying ‘No’.
Because they were so busy saying ‘Yes’ to everyone, they didn’t have much time left to take care of themselves.
So food became the one way they allowed themselves to rest and enjoy.
But there was only one problem with that “solution.”
They could not say ‘No’ to foods that they knew were hurting them either!
What do you do when you avoid saying ‘No’ because you fear the hurt that can come from it?
On my own successful weight loss journey, I learned that you are going to have to say ‘No’ to some things in order to say 'Yes' to your life.
