Thank God for your open, honest obedience. I have watched two or more of your videos everyday since I started my journey in July. I've written my plan, selected my fasting window, decided on my cheat day, and prayed for the fruit of the Spirit to be manifested in my life. Today's video confirmed so many things that I share with you. It's my goal to give myself one year of patient, consistent 16-8 fasting. By then, I hope to be at my goal and can share my victory with you and your community. Thanks again. I love your style and may God continue to use you to encourage us on the journey. Sincerely, Eleanor
Sometimes I think god makes your videos pop up when I'm struggling and needing some help . thanks for the reminder god bless!
A coworker said to me recently that she made sure to eat healthy and exercise because she saw her body as a gift from God and that it wasn’t something that could be replaced. I started thinking about how I take care of my fiancé, my family, my patients, my dog, etc but I wasn’t taking care of me. That has really helped me do better with eating better, fasting, and exercising more.
Idolatry, gluttony, laziness and lack of self-control are all issues the Holy Spirit has been dealing with me about. Very timely video. Thank you!
My husband and I love Jesus and want our lives to bring him glory. We’re in our 70’s and our health isn’t great. We’ve been trying to find a way to take better care of these “temples” God has given us. We’ve tried Keto ( that really ramped up my BP!). For the past 10 years we’ve worked on plant based eating. But self control was always evading us. I recently began looking into 16/8 intermittent fasting. I’m so thankful to run across your channel (of course it was no accident). I just got your book on Kindle. Thanks for sharing this most important part of your life. I’ll keep you in my prayers. Great stuff!
Thank you for coming from a Christian perspective. I'm not Christian yet you've touched my soul. Listening to you, hearing your sincerity, love and passion was so uplifting for me. Your life mirrored mine (and many others, I'm sure). I want to thank you for opening up and sharing. I thank G- d for you and your experiences. May He continue to guide and protect you and your family. Amen Your friend from Philly, Katrina
How are things coming along for you @Katrina Hameed
Best video yet. Thank you. 💕
Amen! I found your channel several years ago. I did IF off and on for about a year and I saw results. I finally committed to it a year and a half ago, come this October 2021, due to an illness that sent to the hospital for a week. It was a wake up call I know, God allowed to happen for me to acknowledge, where my gluttony, slothness, and selfishness had gotten me. Down 75 lbs, walking 6 miles now (3 times a wk). Praise God for he is GOOD!
It was so nice to hear that you are a Christian. God is using this space with Intermittent Fasting to draw people to Him. Amen. Our testimonies are so similar. Thanks for sharing. Fasting changed my life body, mind, and spirit...but the spiritual growth is the real prize
I absolutely LOVE this video. Brilliant insights. You touch on the "deadly sins" most of us struggle with the most: pride, wrath, gluttony and sloth. Fasting does absolutely help with all of them.
I am a Muslim, and I absolutely agree with you, fasting is actually a part of my religion, but I felt disconnected body and soul, now I try to understand more and I do feel better, it gives more sense to what I do.
I believe fasting is a spiritual practice as well as physical. So glad you addressed this aspect of the topic.
Adore you and your lovely spirit. God bless! 🙏💖
I need this today cause I was ready to jump out of fasting I been doing it for almost 3 years. I did lose ,but my mental issue trigger me like someone who say u losing to much weight, u getting to skinny. So I went back to eating out of control. I stared again this year,but I was not eating well so I stalled I been drinking beer alot during my fast and desert lot of it in my window.. today I was like what the use am at 179 am a Christian and I was asking God give me strength then your video came up it'd so true I used to eat alot before getting In to fasting I was told wow u can eat I was like I don't eat that much well I did all 3 meal plus I between at night. When u read the scripture it's took me back that u know what I don't need to eat or give up on my fasting it help me with self control I get full fast I don't think about food I have am autoimmune disease that attacks my joint and it painful fasting help with inflammation so I can do more we just need to hear the truth be kind to my self pray to the Lord for strength thank u soo much your video encourages me not to give up
You’ve got this! I am in awe of the power of the Holy Spirit to encourage His children. I am blessed by your testimony and inspired by you. You will be to your circle of influence what Kayla has so graciously been to us.🌺🌺🌺
You are Amazing. Yep, I said it right. You didn't read wrong. I was going to retract that, after I first typed it, not wanting to make you feel uncomfortable. However, I must admit, I dodged watching this video when you first posted it. Finally I hit play and it's as if you were speaking my life. You were telling my story, but it's YOUR story. You're amazing in the fact that you publicly put it out there, the connection of our weight struggles and actual spiritual health. I feel I need to watch this video on repeat for a while. So much packed into this lesson. Thank you for all you do. For being honest, being you. You're helping more people than you know.
lol me too i. was about to skip this video but i glad i did not
GOD is good
Yes I used to think about food it was an idol for me
Kayla, I've gotten great inspiration from your RUclips videos over the last two years as I've done intermittent fasting. However, this video took it to a new level for me. I'd become stuck, and last night at 3:00 AM, this video enlightened me to questions I've had for decades. Wow! I am deeply grateful. This video even inspired me to do an art piece on eating.
❤️ thank you for making this video
Wow! Food has become my idol. Definitely something to think on. Thanks for that.
Thank you Kayla, I am also a Christian and had never thought of IF in this way. Thank you for your very insightful perspective ❤
This is very helpful, excellent testimony. Thank you!
Thank you so much for posting this ❤️ you are on to something. I never really connected the dots so fully, but you are right. God loves us, but if I'm obese, clearly I'm not loving myself and that is something I need to do if I am to love others well
God bless you Kayla!
Hey lady. I’m 7 weeks into my IF journey. I recently found your channel and am enjoying your content so much. I’m a Christian too and that is so cool that this has been a spiritual journey for you too. I’ll be more mindful of these things going forward. Thanks for being open and sharing.
U should read her book. It's awesome
One of your best videos.
This video helped me so much.
God Bless you!! ✝️
Wow, this was an amazing video. Absolutely loved it. Thanks 🙏
So helpful! Thank you!!
Loved tge video. Very helpful. Everything is related
Thank you Kayla. True. Fasting is a big help.
Thank you so much for sharing this Kayla. May God bless you and use you for His glory. Love from India
Thank you for sharing. This video was a great encouragement.
Thank you Kayla for sharing this important topic of our lives, your testimony is very similar to what I went through myself. Blessings 🙏❤️🇨🇦
❤ thank you, very timely… I was aware of gluttony as a believer and continued to put it in the back of my mind, today I felt different listening to you. This was eye opening for me. I’m thankful for the grace of God, but I see a change is needed in my heart.
I am so glad you addressed this. I feel like I can hear God more clearly when I’m not numbing out with food.
Great video, I also am a Christian, and finally I reached out to God through prayer when I did not know what was wrong with me and how to fix it, and He answered my question on why have I had this aliment for 40 yrs, and that led me to intermittent fasting to heal it. I now have been fasting for 2 yrs. health problem gone, lost 67lbs. Now when I am out with my daughter who is 52 people always think I am her sister, I would be happy to tell my story my youtube channel is called Linda Joyce. Thanks for all you do.
God Bless you for you and your channel. Great message that I needed to hear. 🙏
Amen and Amen. Great testimony and one that I can be encouraged by. Glad I found your channel.
OK bear with me as I drive and talk to text. There may be some grammar errors. I found your channel 2 years ago I am at this time now closer to 30 pounds overweight back then it was just 15. I also am a Christian and I so very much appreciate your candor and how you laid things out in this video. I honestly can say there is not one video I have watched that you have put together that I have not liked. You are so open and kind and I and and I can fully relate with this slothfulness and going to the kitchen when I should be praying or I could be doing a task. Many times for me at night around 7 I want a bowl of ice
Kayla, I appreciate your videos. Thank you. 💗
God bless you, Kayla.
This is awsome, thank you very much for being transparent and helpful . I am doing the intermittent fasting, and am liking it, but weight loss is really slow, but I am not giving up.
I LOVE THIS MESSAGE 💜
It goes along with Buddhism as well. One thing you are supposed to be mindful of eradicating from your life is "greed" (gluttony). And also not causing harm in the world by being greedy and taking too much. I feel that I am finally able o fulfill this spiritual practice rather than just read about it or think it's something the monks do. The monks are on OMAD and are doing this in order to break that habit of making food more important than it is, emotionally. For many years I read about the monks or mindful eating and didn't think I could do it but with IF it makes it easy to understand the greatness of all this, spiritually. Thank you for your down to earth videos. It's what got me in to IF and I feel very happy that I am on the next spiritual level that I longed for because of it.
Glad I found your channel, thank you!❤
This is so relatable. Every problem you've talked about, is my problem too. Thank you!
Thank you, so helpful!
I needed this...thank you so very much for telling your story.
What a wonderful video! It just make so much sense. I see myself in all the examples given. This def helps us to be more concious. Blessings...
Excellent Kayla. Life has got to be more than food and drink. If food and our belly is our god we are most impoverished
Fasting and OMAD really puts food in its proper place. Food is a gift from God. Not the god.
Keep encouraging us. Great video
So helpful thank you love the video! I've been wanting to practice this and just thought to look into the spiritual aspect to get me motivated because that definitely will especially hearing your video makes a lot of sense to me
Thank you for that!
Soli Deo Gloria
Very interesting thoughts!
Glad you think so! - J.R.
THANK YOU!
great video! It made me think about 40+yrs of Quakerism and 20 yrs beyond that of Catholicism both provided caffeine sugar and baked goods every day of worship and holidays. Both have prohibitions against alcohol, (unlike Jews and Oneg) and have morbidly obese congregants. Thank you for your bravery, G_dspeed!
Losing weight is a side benefit of fasting, its the mental clarity that I find beneficial. Very hard to keep it going though.
I love your videos, thank you. I am starting OMAD again this week. I fell off the wagon a few times and have tried other diets. I’m British and enjoy cups of milky tea. Can I exchange dairy milk for an alternative such as unsweetened almond milk during the fasting period?
IMO - no cream, no almond milk during fast. “Clean” fast means no calories. It is hard to switch to black coffee or tea, but you can do it! Best wishes with it.
@@VisorGirl thank you
Actually Kayla does use half and half in her coffee during her fasting window, and I myself have lost 19 pounds so far, doing OMAD but having coffee with heavy cream which does not seem to affect my fast. Heavy cream has no carbs and I only use a teaspoon. I agree no almond milk or anything sweet.
My goodness you have a beautiful heart
Maintained 55 lbs weight loss for couple of years (thx to u and Adapt Your Life). Quit my job over a racist boss. I used to just come home from work feeling abused by his overt racism and eat. Now I file complaints with the Sports Teams that hire this man for security. And sleep like a baby.
❤️
No wonder i noticed something beautiful about you. 🧡
Read the book eat fast feast. It is a Christian righter.
OMAD is not and should not be presented as spiritual fasting. You can still be a glutton on OMAD. I sure have done it myself.
I think that Jesus Christ Our Lord did a 40-day fast.
I have done 15 days.
What part of a Christian's life is NOT God's? Is there any aspect that is hidden or disconnected from Him? Psalm 139 and Hebrews 4... And Jesus said "when you fast" not if you fast.
I heart: is the Holy Spirit your comfuter? or chocolate 🍫🍫 I have to answer; chocolate😢
