100lbs Down, A Journey for Christian Women with Nicole Young: Christian Health Coaching, Women’s health coaching, Mindset c

Nicole Young

Let’s be honest: You already know what to eat. That isn’t the problem. If knowing how to lose weight was the answer, you’d be done by now. Instead, you’re exhausted by the whole song and dance. "I’ll start Monday" turns into eating chips over the sink by Wednesday, and somehow you’re right back where you started—feeling stuck, heavy, and frustrated. I’m Nicole. I’m not here to give you another meal plan. I’m here to have the real conversation about why we’re actually hiding, numbing out, and shrinking back from the life God gave us. Pull up a chair. On this channel, we’re having a coffee-date honest look at: Why we really numb out (food, doom scrolling, busyness) The "too much" vs. "not enough" battle in our heads Actually finding your identity in Christ instead of just quoting verses about it Breaking the cycle of emotional eating so you can finally be free I’m the friend who isn’t afraid to call you on your crap because I know what you’re capable of. It’s time to stop hiding. Subscribe if you’re ready to stop starting over. Grab your coffee (heavy on the creamer 😉) and let’s go. Questions? Comments? Concerns?

    66// You Already Know What to Do (So Why Are You Still Hiding)

    You already know what to do to lose weight… so why aren’t you doing it? You’ve read the books. You know the plan. You’ve done it before—maybe you’ve even lost the weight before. So why does it keep falling apart? I used to think my problem was information. Turns out, it was something else entirely—and it took me a long time to get honest about it. In this episode, I’m sharing the messy middle of my own journey with weight loss, emotional eating, and consistency—the part nobody talks about. The part where you’re trying to change your life… but the fear, doubt, and pressure around you send you right back to old habits. Where the people around you—without even meaning to—make it harder to follow through and actually stick with it. This isn’t a “here’s your meal plan” episode. This is what weight loss really looks like when you’re trying to stop starting over and become someone who actually follows through. We talk about: ~ Why you keep starting over with weight loss (even when you’re serious) ~ Emotional eating and what’s really driving it ~ The outside voices that keep pulling you off track ~ Why fear of being seen keeps you stuck in the same cycle ~ And why this feels deeper than just “lack of discipline” If you feel like you’re hiding—in your body, in your habits, or in your life—and you’re tired of the start/stop cycle… this one will hit.   ✨ READY TO STOP THE CYCLE?

    65// Why You Keep Starting Over Every Monday (And How To Stop)

    Why do you keep abandoning the things you swear you’re serious about? The diet. The health goals. The business idea. The habits you promised yourself you’d stick with this time. In this episode, we’re talking about the real reason so many women fall into the “start over Monday” cycle—and why chasing quick results might actually be the thing keeping you stuck. For years I believed the problem was that I hadn’t found the right solution yet. So I kept searching for better diets, better strategies, and better systems that promised faster results. When things didn’t work quickly enough, I assumed the plan wasn’t right for me… and I’d go looking for the next answer. But the truth I had to face was this: it wasn’t the plan that wasn’t working. It was that I never stuck with anything long enough to actually see results. In this episode we talk about: • Why quick results marketing keeps so many women stuck • The hidden pattern behind emotional eating and quitting diets • Why willpower and motivation aren’t the real problem • How chasing fast weight loss and fast success creates the start-stop cycle • The boring habits that actually build lasting health and consistency • Why learning to deal with stress and emotions without food is the real turning point If you feel like you’re constantly starting over with weight loss, emotional eating, or healthy habits, this conversation might explain why. And more importantly, it will help you see what actually breaks the cycle. ✨ READY TO STOP THE CYCLE?

    64// I Fought Structure for Years (Here’s Why I Surrendered)

    If you feel stuck in a cycle of starting over every Monday, emotional eating, or knowing what to eat but not sticking with it… this episode is for you. For years, I fought meal planning and routines because I didn’t want to feel “boxed in.” But the truth was, no structure kept me stuck—overthinking food choices, giving in when I was tired, and staying in the same place with my weight, my habits, and even our debt. In this episode, I share why I finally surrendered to simple structure, how a basic meal plan is helping me stop emotional eating, and why routine is the missing piece for many Christian women trying to lose weight and build healthy habits. We talk about: • Why decision fatigue leads to overeating • Why meal planning isn’t dieting—it’s stewardship • The real fear behind avoiding structure • How routine helps with weight loss, debt payoff, and follow-through • How to stop the “perfect plan” cycle If you’re tired of quitting, tired of food noise, and ready to build real, sustainable health habits rooted in faith, come join our free community of women walking this out together. ✨ READY TO STOP THE CYCLE?

    63// Losing the First 13lbs: I Had to Stop Hiding (My 100lb Goal)

    If you’re a Christian woman stuck in emotional eating, food noise, and starting over every Monday… this episode is for you. This isn’t another diet talk. It’s about what happened when I realized I wasn’t overweight because of food—I was hiding. People-pleasing. Doubting myself. Ignoring what God was nudging me to do. When I finally got honest about that… I dropped 13 pounds. Not from cutting carbs. Not from a new workout plan. From getting back in alignment with God’s calling on my life. But then doubt came back… and so did the cravings. In this episode, I’m sharing my real-life story from my 100-lb weight loss journey and what God is teaching me about faith-based weight loss, emotional eating, and why food noise gets loud when we’re living out of alignment. We talk about: • Why Christian weight loss starts with honesty, not another diet • How people-pleasing and hiding can trigger emotional eating • What “food noise” is and why it comes back when we doubt • Learning to trust God’s direction for your health and your life • Moving from guilt and diet culture to stewardship and peace If you’re tired of diets, tired of starting over, and tired of feeling alone in your faith-based weight loss journey… you’re not crazy. And you’re not alone. I started a free community for women who want real support, real faith, and real change—without pretending everything is perfect.

    62// I Dropped 13 Pounds in a Month When I Stopped Doing This | Christian Weight Loss

    I dropped 13 pounds in a month. Not because I found a better diet. Not because I tracked harder. Not because I finally “got motivated.” It happened when I stopped doing something I’ve been doing for 25 years. In this episode, I share what really changed — and why weight loss was never about food for me. If you’re a Christian woman who: Knows how to lose weight but can’t seem to stick with it Starts strong and fades out Feels embarrassed that you keep quitting Uses food to cope with stress, overwhelm, or disappointment Wonders why you can’t just follow through This one is for you. I talk about: Why I kept self-sabotaging my weight loss The connection between people-pleasing, hiding, and emotional eating How living out of alignment with who God made you to be creates stress in your body Why cravings can lose their grip when internal conflict is resolved And what finally broke the start-over cycle for me I also didn’t expect to get emotional in this episode… but I did. Because this wasn’t just about weight. It was about finally stepping into who God made me to be — without shrinking, second-guessing, or asking everyone else for permission. If you’ve ever said, “This time will be different,” and then ended up back where you started… You’re not lazy. You’re not broken. And you’re not alone. Weight loss isn’t just about what you eat. It’s about why you keep quitting.   ✨ READY TO STOP THE CYCLE?
