Battling Food Temptations: A Reality Check For Managing Your Unhealthy Cravings [Ep. 11]

Self Care Simplified

One of the hardest challenges of life is saying no to foods that are unhealthy for you. Sometimes, resisting food temptations can feel like a daily battle. I bet you know what you should and should not be eating, but you just can’t do it on a consistent basis for some reason. Why is this so hard?!

In this episode, I'm going teach you exactly what healthy eating should look like (so there's not doubt in your mind), we'll chat about splurging vs. cheating, and then we'll unearth the ugliness of "temptations". Let's also take a look at the two most prominent instances in Scripture that deal with temptations and how the two different individuals handled them. In the end, you'll walk away with some practical tools that you can implement right away to manage your cravings better, and some spiritual guidance to battle the temptations better.

At the end of the episode, I'm answering YOUR questions:

Cherie asked: (35:06) "How do I eat the right amount at meal/snack times?"

Jasmine asked: (38:24) "How do I figure out how much protein I should eat?"
