#31 Food Hacks and Swaps that only Feel Like Cheats

Among the many reasons I hate the concept of “dieting” is the connotation of deprivation. I don’t know about you, but I hear that word and I think of a giant list of what you cannot eat. People talk about mentally preparing themselves for going on a diet. Believe it or not, you can eat healthy and enjoy what you eat. This includes what we may think of as “treats” or foods that tend to be off limits in many diets. I’ve learned a ton of these in my lifetime of dieting. Today I am going to share some of my go-to food hacks and swaps that are good for you and will not derail your efforts. I've got something for just about any type of diet or food plan you may be following, all of which are delicious and will keep you from feeling deprived while you work toward your goals. So, go get your notebook, get comfortable, and join me in today’s episode of Faith Fitness Joy.If you'd like to join me in my FREE live event June 27-30, at 7 PM MST on my personal Facebook page, here is the link: https://www.facebook.com/rachelle.weiss.7/ The event is called Believe: the Art of Walking in Faith

#30 All about Faith

This is a bit of a celebratory episode as it is my 30th episode of this podcast, which I am so excited about! I have done a bit of a re-launch of my podcast to celebrate this milestone. I wanted to pick a special topic for today, which is also my Wonderful Wednesday episode, and as you know these are always focused on spiritual health and growth. So, I thought what better topic than Faith for this episode. There are a couple ways we think of faith or meanings of faith, right? So, that is what I’m discussing today.
Faith as in religion/what your faith is.
Faith as in belief and trust.

#29 Five Tips for Success on your Weight Loss Plan

So perhaps you’ve recently embarked on a weight loss journey and starting to find staying on track with your nutrition approach challenging. Or maybe it’s been some time and you’ve been finding yourself in the all or nothing trap, where you have one of those days you didn’t have the right foods on hand and ended up eating something off plan, which then led to going off plan the rest of the day, which then turned into falling off plan for the rest of the week. It’s ok. It happens to the best of us. Fortunately, it can be avoided and there are some things you can do to set yourself up for success week-to-week. In more than 20 years of “dieting” and exercise, I’ve learned a few tips that have helped me stay on track. These are:
Plan.
Prepare.
Know your go-to restaurant items.
Avoid alcohol.
Track.

#28 Signs from Heaven: How God is Speaking to you Daily

Today is all about signs from heaven. Have you ever had a dream that stuck with you all day? Maybe it was a certain object or the colors that really stood out and you just can’t shake it. Maybe it was something you heard or you saw words written on a piece of paper. You wake up just knowing there was more to it; it wasn’t just a dream. Or, what about those times when you’ve been praying about something and a few days later you overhear someone say something that is an answer, or maybe you’re in a conversation and the person says what is an answer to your prayer. What about when you’re walking along the sidewalk and you notice a random bunch of flowers growing near the sidewalk that seem completely out of place, or a butterfly flutters around you like it’s desperately trying to tell you something. Oftentimes we don’t know what to make of these things and we shrug them off. Well, I’m here to tell you it is high time you start paying more attention to these things, because this is often how God tries to answer you or get your attention.

#27 How to Get Started Drinking Water when you don’t like Drinking Water

We all know that we should all be drinking primarily water, yet, most of us probably don’t drink enough and many don’t drink any water at all. So, how they heck are you supposed to hit a half a gallon a day, let alone a whole gallon a day when you hate drinking water? As someone who used to absolutely hate drinking water, I get it. But I can also tell you it is possible to go from hating drinking water to drinking only water most of the time. Today I am going to share how I went from drinking almost no water every day to drinking almost only water every day. So, go get yourself a glass of water, get comfortable, and join me in today’s episode of Faith Fitness Joy.

This is Episode 26 of Faith Fitness Joy, Love and Self-Acceptance. Today I am getting vulnerable and talking about what has been a lifelong battle of learning to love and accept myself. It is vulnerable for me to share what I will be sharing today, but God has guided me to share this so it may help others who also struggle this way. If this is something you also find yourself working through or if it resonates for you, then join me in today’s episode.

#24 The Connection between Health and Inner Healing

Until recently I was oblivious to the connection between unhealed past traumas and hurts and health. As I’ve learned more I’ve been amazed at how little this seems to be discussed, or perhaps I just hadn’t ever found my way to it before. I have found discovering this and working on my own inner healing has helped me in numerous ways, including my weight loss and overall health, so I want to share this with you in today’s episode. So, if you’re ready to discover what may be at the root of some things for you in your own health journey, then join me in today’s episode of Faith Fitness Joy.

#23 How Calorie Counting is Keeping you from the Results you Want

#22 Energy Blocks and how they Keep you from what you Desire

You may have heard and maybe even follow some of the advice and guidance out there around manifestation. Many of us may remember the book and movie called the Secret, which taught us all we need to do is ask, believe, and receive. While this is true, there is more to it and much of our ability to receive what we desire comes down to our ability to do so. This is where energy blocks come in. If you are unaware of them, they can be making it much more difficult to receive, leaving you thinking this manifestation business is rubbish. I have good news that it is not rubbish at all. In today’s episode I am going to discuss what energy blocks are, how we create them, and why it’s important to clear them, so we can receive with more ease.
