I am so happy to have you with us today and I hope you'll spend a little time learning about what we have to offer here at
GAINChange. You probably won’t find very many weight-loss related sites with the word “gain” in the title. Most who struggle with being over weight do everything within their power not to gain.
So, why did I choose the word “gain”? I believe that it’s a matter of perspective really. Let me explain. Can you think of any other area of your life that you are so set on “losing” something? If given the choice to lose or gain love, family, friends, knowledge, wisdom, money, a job or self-esteem (and the list could go on) what would be your choice? Exactly. Most of us would choose to gain any (or all) of those things!
If we make the assumption that losing control of certain areas of your life will cause you to gain weight, then wouldn’t gaining control of those same areas cause you to lose weight? Since the word “GAIN” is a part of both (and far more positive sounding than “lose”), I thought I’d run with the acronym. It is my prayer that this site will prove to you that
God,
Accountability,
Intentional Movement &
Nutrition can get you on your way to positive GAIN!
GAINChange is a project based on my struggle with weight over the years. During that time I've made quite a few friends who share that struggle and recently we decided that we needed a place where women could band together in their quest for true, lasting change. As this site takes shape, you'll find online Bible Studies, informative articles, inspiring stories and other women who want to encourage you as well.
