"I Don’t Have Time to Be Healthy” — The Lie Keeping You Stuck

Lindy Schlabach - Christian Mindset & Weight Loss Coach Season 1 Episode 97

Ecclesiastes 3:1 (NLT): “For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under heaven.”

You don’t need more time — you need clearer priorities. We all have the same 24 hours in a day and it always shocks me that the most successful people you meet make time for exercise and food prep. Why is that? I would guess a few factors are keeping us stuck, scrolling social media being one of them, here are a few others.

What keeps moms stuck:

  • Waiting for the “perfect” time

  • Thinking health must be an hour-long workout or elaborate meal prep

  • Believing health is selfish

3 WAYS TO TAKE BACK YOUR TIME

  1. Time-track for 2 days: Where’s the scroll hole? In the BWLF we do a social audit and learn how to time block, this helps us organize our time through the day and see where open spots are we may miss.


  2. Anchor habits to something you already do. Cleaning daily? Take an extra second to work in a squat. Playing with the littles on the floor? Do some crunches or leg ups, push-ups or stretches.


  3. Redefine success: small obedience > big effort. Obedience over outcome, here we go again! Honoring what the Holy Spirit told you to do, that’s HUGE, celebrate it. We’re not focused on major weight loss and the scale's definition of who we are. We’re focusing on dying to self and living for Christ and there’s no mention of a scale or your weight in the bible. Focus on Him, let Him lead.

PRAYER

God, help me see my time through your eyes, give me the courage to have tough conversations with myself and help me make time for the things You’ve called me to. Show me how to steward my time with intention and grace and be present with the people in the moments I’m in. Help me to remove the urge to scroll mindlessly, I know it’s a waste of time and isn’t helping me reach my God-given goals. Thank you Father, Amen. 




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

Hey there friend, I'm Lindy Schlabach, Christian Fitness & Nutrition Coach. I gained 100 pounds in my late twenties and struggled for years to get it off. Seven years ago, I found a basic system that worked and has helped me lose 90 of those pounds. I’ve been working with women in online fitness and nutrition ever since to break chains of diet culture, embrace their bodies and fueling instead of dieting.

In this podcast, I'll teach you how to:

  • • Lose Weight in a Way that honors God without obsessing about the scale
    • Meal Plan and Prep for Your Family
    • Follow a MACRO based plan that allows you to eat the foods you love.
    • Recognize and pray through triggers keeping you stuck.
    • I’ll help you Plan your week and schedule your self-care time.
    • Cultivate a spirit of self-discipline in your workouts you actually enjoy.

    It's time to give God your health journey and watch Him make you new, from the inside, OUT.
