Today I chat with a remarkable woman named Wendy Parmley who has shed over 100 pounds on her journey to a healthier life. Once weighing over 400 pounds, she now relies on her faith in God to overcome food fixation, addiction, and restriction. Her story powerfully illustrates the strength that comes from surrendering our struggles to God.

We discuss how self-talk and the lies we believe about ourselves and food can hold us back, as well as the challenges she’s faced and the victories she’s celebrating. With nearly 42% of U.S. adults classified as obese, this conversation is vital.

We explore how Christ-followers can make healthier food choices by thinking differently about our bodies and what we consume, relying on God’s strength to overcome temptation.

This episode is for anyone seeking to keep God at the center of their heart, not just those struggling with food. Tune in for a conversation filled with hope, faith, and practical wisdom to help you break free from unhealthy patterns. Let's CHOOSE 2 THINK about our HEALTH!
