Ondrea Lynn - Certified Personal Trainer and Nutrition Coach for Christian Women

Are you tired of fighting the scale 24/7? Are you sick of fad diets that only get you temporary results? Do you wish you had an easy plan to follow so you don’t have to stress out about how to lose weight? Are you looking for a simple foundational weight loss framework that can fit into your busy day so it becomes a lifestyle? Do you wish you could workout in 15-minute increments instead of hours at the gym? Do you wish you have an exercise plan that gets you results while working out at home? Are you looking for ways to naturally speed up your metabolism? Do you want your pizza and spinach too? Are you ready to break free from binge eating, over eating, and sugar addiction? Are you ready to be free from past trauma and hurts that drive you to sabotage? Do you desire a stronger relationship with Jesus, even on your weight loss journey but unsure how that looks? Hey, I’m Ondrea Lynn and I’m so excited that you are here with me on Christian Women Weight Loss! I remember what it felt like to be 75lbs overweight, exhausted, overwhelmed, riddled with poor self-esteem, wrong self-image, and unworthiness. I was searching in all the worldly places and was brought down a path of deception. Seeking and searching for something to fill my void lead me into 30 years in new age occult practices that never fulfilled me. It was so much work to a never-ending solution until one day when everything that meant something to be broke… my oldest child became estranged, my husband left, my 3 thriving businesses crumbled. Until I was radically saved by Jesus and He made everything new and set me on this track to help Christian women lose weight and gain health through the power of the Holy Spirit. I have spent 20 years in the health and fitness industry as a certified NASM personal trainer, group fitness instructor, holistic health coach, fitness nutrition specialist, studying behavioral change and self-sabotage. I’m here to teach you everything I know about simplifying food and fitness while making faith your primary drive as a busy woman. Inside this podcast you will find a combination of food and fitness golden nuggets while we use the word of God to strengthen your relationship with Jesus. Allowing the Holy Spirit on this journey so you begin to get results in weight loss, better sleep, burning fat, breaking free from depression, anxiety, binge eating, sugar addiction, emotional struggles. As a woman of God it is time to get His vessel, your body, healthy so you can do all that God is calling you to. It is clearly written in Jeremiah 29:11, “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” NO more starving or endless exercising, let the Holy Spirit rise so you lose the weight and keep it off. May the Lord give you ears to hear, eyes to see, a heart that’s pleasing to Him along with a body that will be transformed for His glory, let’s dive in….

    Worship & Word Wednesday | Proverbs 16: Why Willpower Keeps Failing You (Proverbs Victory Walk — Wk 2) | Encore

    ✨ ENCORE EPISODE — Week 2 of our Proverbs Victory Walk, the chapter-by-chapter journey through the wisdom of Proverbs that forms the framework of my book. I've added a fresh intro to open this week, and the teaching that follows is one of our most-loved Worship & Word Wednesday episodes. If you missed Week 1 in Proverbs 29, go back and start there — these build on each other. Let me ask you something gently this morning: what if the thing that keeps derailing you was never a discipline problem at all? You've tightened up. You've gripped the wheel. You've told yourself this time I'll just try harder — and somehow it still comes apart. Friend, there's a reason for that, and it's one most women never stop to consider. In this episode, we open Proverbs 16 and uncover a truth that changes everything: pride — not a lack of willpower — is so often the real thing sabotaging your progress. Not arrogance. That quiet, exhausting "I've got this, I'll handle it myself." The self-reliance, the striving, the need to control it all. And Proverbs 16 shows us the way out isn't gripping harder — it's the humility that finally sets you free and lets God carry what you were never meant to carry alone. In this episode: 🔹 Why pride — not discipline — may be the real reason the scale keeps winning 🔹 How subtle self-reliance and control quietly sabotage your progress 🔹 What biblical humility actually looks like on a weight loss journey 🔹 The shift from white-knuckling to Spirit-led surrender 🔹 A time of worship, faith-filled declarations, and a closing prayer over your journey This is one more chapter of the journey I walk you all the way through in my book, The Christian Women's Weight Loss Victory Plan: How to Defeat the Enemy and Transform Your Body — a Kingdom Book Awards finalist and runner-up. If today's word stirs something in you, the book takes you deeper, chapter by chapter, through the wisdom of Proverbs applied to your weight loss journey. 📖 Grab your copy: www.ondrealynn.com — Website: www.ondrealynn.com 🎁 Free Guide — Win the Spiritual Battle at Weight Loss: www.ondrealynn.com/win 📞 Book your complimentary Weight Loss Victory Call: www.ondrealynn.com/contact 🏝️ Grab the Victory Vacation Guide (enjoy your vacation without gaining weight): www.ondrealynn.com/vacation 👭 Join me in the FB Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DivinelyHealthyWomen P.S.

    The Dark Truth About Yoga, Tai Chi & Qigong — What the Church Isn't Telling You | Worth Repeating

    Some messages are too important to say only once. This one is worth repeating. You've been told yoga is just stretching. That tai chi is just gentle movement. That qigong is just breathing and "energy" and finding your center. And more and more, Christian women are being told it's safe — because now it comes with worship music and a cross on the flyer and a name like "Holy Yoga" or "Christian Yoga." But these practices were never designed for fitness. They carry deep spiritual roots — yoga as devotion within Hinduism, tai chi and qigong built on the manipulation of qi, a life-force that is not the Holy Spirit. And Scripture is clear: the enemy comes to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), and he does his best work disguised as peace, wellness, and light. In this episode, Ondrea Lynn — a woman who spent 30 years in new age and occult practices before Jesus radically set her free — walks through the history and origins most women never stop to look into, and shows why you cannot rename a spiritual practice "Christian" and remove what it carries. This isn't about condemnation. It's about discernment, freedom, and the peace that only Jesus actually gives. In this episode you'll hear: • Where yoga, tai chi, and qigong actually come from — and what that means for a believer • Why "Holy Yoga" and "Christian Yoga" can't sanctify a rooted practice • What the Bible says about counterfeit peace and being deceived • Why so many women feel "off" in their spirit but can't name why • God-honoring alternatives for stretching, movement, and rest If you've practiced these things, hear this: you didn't know, and there's no shame here — only truth and freedom. Come seek the Lord with an open heart and let the Holy Spirit lead.   — YOUR NEXT STEP — 🛡️ FREE Guide — Win the Spiritual Battle at Weight Loss: www.ondrealynn.com/win 📖 Get the book, The Christian Women's Weight Loss Victory Plan (Kingdom Book Awards finalist): www.ondrealynn.com 📞 Book your free Weight Loss Victory Call: www.ondrealynn.com/contact 👭 Join my free Facebook community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DivinelyHealthyWomen Grab Your Victory Vacation Guide - www.ondrealynn.com/vacation  🌐 Everything in one place: www.ondrealynn.com   Michelle McCoy Info:  Website:  www.treasuredwellness.com  Treasured Wellness Podcast:Listen Here   Apostle Richard Taylor Info:  The Masters Table Ministries - Click Here Rabbonis Love, Inc : Click Here

    Ep 135 | Addiction To Freedom : Kecia Lost 21 Pounds and Broke Free From Food, Shame, and Her Past — God's Way (A Testimony)

    What do you do when your struggle with food was never really about food? In this powerful testimony episode of The Christian Women's Weight Loss Podcast, Ondrea sits down with Kecia, a graduate of the 12-week Trinity Transformation, who lost 21 pounds — and found something far bigger than a smaller number on the scale. Kecia shares her story with rare honesty: overcoming drug addiction, a wine habit that took hold so quietly she almost didn't recognize it, and a lifelong battle with comfort eating that traced all the way back to childhood trauma. She opens up about the daily weight of condemnation and self-consciousness, and how a faith-based approach to weight loss — combining structured meal plans, real accountability, and deep spiritual healing — helped her break old habits, quiet the voice of shame, and build a whole new relationship with food, her body, and God. If you're a Christian woman over 35 who feels like your weight, your eating, and your past are too tangled together to ever change, this episode is for you. Kecia's testimony is living proof that transformation is possible — spirit, soul, and body. In this episode you'll hear: how faith and weight loss work together, why willpower was never the missing piece, how to reframe emotional and comfort eating, and what it looks like to release striving and find rest. Topics: Christian weight loss, faith-based weight loss for women over 35, losing weight God's way, overcoming food addiction, emotional and comfort eating, breaking free from condemnation and shame, weight loss testimony, and finding freedom instead of striving.

    Ep 134 | The Enemy's Weight Loss Trap :Striving

    The Enemy's Weight Loss Trap: Striving | Hebrews 4 for Christian Women You finally lose the weight — and somehow the peace you expected never shows up. You stay motivated for a few weeks, then find yourself exhausted, comfort eating, and starting over again Monday. What if that cycle isn't a discipline problem at all? What if it's a trap? In this episode, Ondrea Lynn opens Hebrews 4 to expose one of the enemy's most effective lies against Christian women: that if you just strive a little harder, lose a little more, and finally get it right, then you'll have rest. Scripture says the opposite. The rest you're aching for was never meant to come from the scale, the mirror, or the meal plan — it was purchased for you, and striving to earn it keeps you circling the very thing God is offering freely. In this episode: What the Greek word katapausis actually means, and why it changes how you eat, move, and respond when the scale won't budge Why so many women don't have a weight problem — they have a rest problem How food quietly becomes the counterfeit comfort we run to at the end of a striving day What it looks like to "strive to enter rest" without falling back into performance The one question to ask yourself today about where you've been searching for peace Watch the Replay Of the Masterclass - How Women 35 and wiser lose 20lbs in 12 weeks God's way - no starving or endless exercise.

    Worship & Word Wednesday | Stop Being Anxious About Your Body: Losing Weight God's Way at 35+ (Philippians 4:6 Study)

    One Greek word in Philippians 4:6 explains why so many Christian women over 35 stay stuck in the weight loss battle — and it has nothing to do with food. In this bonus Worship & Word Wednesday episode, we open Philippians 4:6 in the original language and uncover the divided, anxious mind (merimnao) — the real root under the struggle that "just eat less and move more" never touched. You'll see how the peace of God can literally stand guard over your mind AND your body, and how that changes everything about losing weight God's way. This episode includes the Word, a time of worship, thanksgiving, Scripture-rooted declarations you can decree out loud over yourself, a praise break, and a closing prayer.

    Ep 133 | How To Endure The Weight That Won't Move : The Job Blueprint

    Christian weight loss is not just a food problem — it's an endurance problem. If you're a Christian woman over 35 who has prayed, fasted, tracked, walked, and still watched the scale refuse to move, this episode is for you. Faith-based weight loss coach and author Ondrea Lynn opens the book of Job to answer the question most women are afraid to say out loud: God, why won't You help me with my body? Job was blameless — and he still suffered. That single truth dismantles the lie so many Christian women carry: that their weight is God's punishment. In this Bible-based weight loss teaching, Ondrea walks through 11 wrong ways to endure suffering and 12 right ways to endure suffering, and shows exactly how each one shows up in a woman's weight loss journey — from emotional eating and self-hatred to crash diets, plateaus, perimenopause weight gain, and quitting in month two. In this episode you'll learn: Why demanding to know "why" keeps you stuck (and why God never answered Job) The difference between weight that is affliction and weight that is consequence — and why the remedy is different How emotional eating is a comfort misplacement, not a discipline failure Why you cannot hate yourself into obedience (James 1:20) How to walk in biblical endurance without white-knuckling or willpower The one thing that turned everything around for Job — and it wasn't an answer Scriptures referenced: Job 1:1, Job 1:21–22, Job 2:9–10, Job 3:11, Job 6:11, Job 7:11, Job 13:15, Job 19:25, Job 23:8–10, Job 38:2–4, Job 40:8, Job 42:2–12 • Proverbs 14:12 • Proverbs 3:5–6 • Psalm 73 • Psalm 31:14–15 • Psalm 27:13–14 • Romans 8:28–30 • Hebrews 13:5 • Hebrews 10:24–25 • 1 Corinthians 10:13 • 1 Corinthians 6:19–20 • John 8:31–32 • 1 Peter 5:6–7 • 1 Peter 2:11–12 • James 1:19–20 • James 5:11  🔴 FREE LIVE MASTERCLASS — TUESDAY, JULY 28 at 7:30 PM EST How Women Over 35 Lose 20 Pounds in 12 Weeks God's Way — Without Starving or Living in a Gym Save your seat 👉 www.ondrealynn.com/multi  📖 GET THE BOOK The Christian Women's Weight Loss Victory Plan — a journey through Proverbs through the lens of weight loss and health.
