Do you want to eat a more healthy diet but you struggle at times with making more positive food choices? During my process of losing 100 pounds, these 7 Christian healthy eating affirmations changed my thinking about food and my diet, and I believe they will be incredibly helpful for you as well.
The road to making more healthy food choices is not about guilt. You cannot guilt yourself thin.
Instead, this is about daily choosing health over choices that feel good in the moment but do not lead to wellness.
Why Christian Healthy Eating Affirmations?
Affirmations are positive statements we say to ourselves as we reach toward a goal. Written affirmations, used daily, are helpful when changing your negative thinking patterns.
Should a Christian Use Positive Affirmations? I believe, yes.
Frame any weight loss affirmation statements in the positive. State what you want to do, not what you are trying to avoid.
Why specifically Christian healthy eating affirmations? Many typical positive weight loss affirmations are geared toward self-esteem. There can be benefit to these. (You are amazing as a creation of God!) Still, overall the focus is on you and your ability to do the work.
As Christians, we have a whole new perspective. Life is not about how good you are – it’s about how good God is.
I encourage you to use these 7 Christian healthy eating affirmations for your journey.

7 Christian Healthy Eating Affirmations

Matthew 19:26
God gives me power over food.
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
I Corinthians 12:9
My strength comes from Christ Jesus, my Savior.

I Corinthians 12:10
I am beautiful.
But let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God’s sight is very precious.
