Proverbs 31:17 “She is energetic and strong, a hard worker.”

1 Corinthians 10:31 "Whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God."

Protein helps you:

1. Stay full longer — It slows digestion, helping you avoid those mid-afternoon energy crashes or late-night snacking binges.
2. Build lean muscle — Muscle burns more calories, even at rest. So, more muscle = a faster metabolism.
3. Maintain your progress — When you lose weight without enough protein, you can lose muscle instead of fat. Protein protects your progress.

Here’s what this could look like in your real life:

• Breakfast: Greek yogurt with berries, or eggs with veggies.
• Lunch: A chicken wrap, tuna salad, or cottage cheese bowl.
• Dinner: Salmon, lean beef, or lentil chili with a side of roasted veggies.
• Snacks: Protein shakes, boiled eggs, jerky, or edamame.

Ask yourself:

1. Do I often eat enough protein to truly fuel my body? Start logging your food to see where you are.
2. What meals or snacks could I easily upgrade by adding more protein? Rx bars, hard boiled eggs, Greek yogurt with fruit and cottage cheese.
3. How can I use this area of nutrition to glorify God instead of slipping into guilt or perfectionism without making excuses?

Holy Father, thank You for creating our bodies so wonderfully and intricately. Thank You that we can honor You through how we care for ourselves. Lord, help my friend listening today to see food not as an enemy, but as a gift. Give her wisdom to fuel her body with what it truly needs. Strengthen her when she feels weak or unmotivated, and remind her that progress takes patience, grace, and faith. Help her to find joy in the process, peace in the journey, and confidence that with You, she can do all things—even this. In Jesus’ name, amen

Are you sick of trying diet after diet and NOT losing weight?
