There is really only two ways to lose weight: Eat less, move more. This revolutionary biblical system empowers you to do both successfully and with a new level of honest commitment. Our eating and movement principles are lifestyle driven and biblically based on God inspired repentance, discipline and grace. |

Q |
|
|
How is the Body Temple Wellness program different from other weight loss programs? |
A |
|
|
We are not a diet. Diets hold up to a 99% failure rate. We believe excess weight is a symptom not of simply food, yet overeating. We teach you to listen to your body’s natural internal hunger/fullness signals. God created a wonderful body that is ready to heal itself of excess weight. For over a decade our members have experienced rapid, safe weight loss by practicing our natural eating principles. |
|
Q |
|
|
Is this program for women only? |
A |
|
|
Body Temple Wellness is open for anyone who wants to take charge of their health and wellness. However we do strongly suggest that small groups (Inspiration circles) remain all men or all women due to the nature of intimate matters that may arise. Couples may opt for co-ed weight loss groups. However again we have seen best results when people feel free and liberated without the restraints on transparency that co-ed groups may produce. |

|
Q |
|
|
What do God and faith have to do with weight loss? |
A |
|
|
Our name Body Temple Wellness is based on our core foundation scripture 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 which states that our bodies are the very temples of God’s spirit. God designed our bodies. God knows what is best for us in His unlimited wisdom. When we give these bodies back to Him in surrender to His will, we give Him permission to work His mighty power in and through our lives. We are no longer dependent on mere will-power; we have access to unlimited power through His word. Overeating is an issue of the heart, not just the stomach; God is the one who can change our hearts, not diets. |

Q |
|
|
Is there an exercise program with Body Temple Wellness?
Is exercise involved in Body Temple Wellness? |
A |
|
|
We believe in the simple tried and true method of walking for people who are physically able. It has been estimated that in His three year ministry Jesus walked about 18,000 miles. That equates into 16 miles per day. We believe that as we surrender our hearts to God we will overcome procrastination and laziness and MOVE MORE! Once again, exercise is not mandatory to lose weight with us, but we do provide a comprehensive walking program with our weight loss system for those who want to maximize their health and wellness. |
| |
Q |
|
|
Is this a healthy way to eat? Is’t it unhealthy to eat whatever you want? |
A |
|
|
We teach a ground-breaking principle called “wise eating” where you learn to trust your body’s response to food. Each one of us bio-chemically different and no two foods affect us the same. That is why we are against “one meal-design fits all” diet plans. With Body Temple Wellness you eat the foods you love in moderation, and learn to eat the foods that help you walk in better vitality, health and wellness. God made us to not be overly focused on foods but rather on our hearts and motives. |
|
Q |
|
|
You say there are no forbidden foods but aren't there medical conditions where certain foods are prohibited? |
A |
|
|
By employing the natural eating principles, you will shed weight rapidly and safely, the way God designed your body to lose weight. Most adult onset chronic issues can be tied directly back to our eating habits, the most harmful of which is overeating. Our members experience health renewal, lowered blood pressure, freedom from diabetes. As with any weight loss program please consult your physician especially if you have pre-existing medical conditions |
