Do Yourself a Favor and Forgive

<p dir="auto">I really like listening to Joyce Meyer. If you know any of her story, you know she experienced childhood incest for 15 years at the hands of her own biological father.</p> <p dir="auto">Yet she was, eventually, able to forgive him. (It doesn't make what he did okay, it just means she decided to stop letting what happened make her miserable.)</p> <p dir="auto">Cari and I suffered abuse in childhood (not from our parents - it was someone else), and I was physically, verbally, and emotionally abused by my first husband. We've both had other rotten things happen in our lives, too.</p> <p dir="auto">But eventually we learned that harboring the bitterness of unforgiveness in your body and soul is actually a sort of trap, in that it damages YOU, not the person who hurt you.</p> <p dir="auto">We've forgiven the people who abused us, because it made us sick not to, same as Joyce Meyer.</p> <p dir="auto">So what does all this have to do with losing weight and keeping it off?</p> <p dir="auto">Simple. After nearly 30 years in this industry, I've learned time and time again that a lot of people who battle obesity are holding the weight because they're also holding guilt, shame and unforgiveness in their lives.</p> <p dir="auto">That's why, in this week's new podcast, Cari and I are revealing how forgiveness helps you stay on track in your Code Red journey.</p> <p dir="auto">If you harbor ANY unforgiveness, whether it's toward someone else, or even yourself, make sure you catch this one. It might be what finally unlocks your success.</p> <p dir="auto">Catch this week's new episode of Rebel Weight Loss & Lifestyle on your favorite podcast software, on YouTube, or in the Code Red network!</p> <p>----</p> <p>Have you seen our new app?  Even when your other social platforms are unavailable, we are here for you on the Code Red App <a href= "http://www.coderedlifestyle.com/app">www.coderedlifestyle.com/app</a></p> <p>----</p> <p>Lose your first, next, or last 10 pounds with absolutely NO pills, powders, shakes, or exe
