Let me start by saying that I typically never post pictures like these, and I probably never will again; But I have a message that has been burning on my heart, and so I share these photos with a purpose. Today I am sharing these pictures and being open about my personal journey because I think it is important that we as women see transformation pictures with a different kind of message. It wasn't easy to decide to share these pictures, not because i'm ashamed of them, but because I didn't...

My testimony starts as a Jesus-loving young girl consumed with how she looked. I watched my mom struggle with her weight, and she desperately did not want me to deal with the same issues. Unfortunately that made me (and her) hyper-focused on it, and I began to believe I was fat, ugly, not good enough, and would never find anyone to love me.
I remember following the Weight Watchers diet plan when I was in elementary, eating lettuce with salt on it and cans of tuna. I've cried WAY too many tears...

Do you have a love hate relationship with food? If you answered yes, I want to start by saying, I have been there; And chances are if you are in that place, you have also been on a diet in your lifetime.
Now, what if I told you it is possible to have a healthy relationship with food, and never go on a diet again?
I believe this is not only possible, but it is how God intended us to live. In fact, I believe God intended food to be enjoyable! Not only did He take the time to make different types...

Do you ever just want to look in the mirror and be pleased with what you see? If you answered yes to any of these, I understand. I’ve been working my way through that myself lately. I think it...

What ifthe attacks on your life have much more to do with who you might be in the future than who you have been in the past? What if God’s dream for you is the enemy’s nightmare? - Lisa Bevere
Have you ever felt really, really beautiful? Cherished? Like when you were a little girl--
experiencing that raw, unfettered beauty that came from a complete lack of awareness of yourself.

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.- Philippians 4:8
