Having gained weight year after year I knew that when I retired I would be able to finally focus on losing weight and getting in shape. Well, it’s been almost two years, and I am successfully… gaining more weight. Isn’t it in his letter to the Romans Paul says, “I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate to do.” This is every day for me. I start the day with the idea that I will not overeat, that I will not eat things that I shouldn’t, that… Read more »

I’m tired of feeling disappointed- thanks Bruce! Starting at 243.5 I’ll do this! I’m loosing weight! Finally!
You Got this Tom !! The Sky’s the Limit and take it gradual baby steps at a time . Maybe find a walking Buddy / friend to go with 2-3 times a week and start slow like 10 -15 mins walking and gradually build up to 30 – 40 mins after 4-8 weeks time . Or if walking itsn’t for you maybe try some gentle swimming and set your self small achievable goals like 3 laps each time you go but maybe add an extra lap or 2 each time. Do it at a good steady pace. Diet wise choose… Read more »
Dear Tom, yes you can do this. Starting is often the hardest step. We are praying for all on this journey of health and with Gods help we will succeed. Pray while you walk, the time and miles fly by.Gods blessings Rosemary -BDCM Team

Bruce thankyou for doing this. I put on 30 extra kilos about five years ago and haven’t been able to lose it. My 16 year old son is really into fitness and he has designed a really good exercise program for me to do and I feel really good mentally, physically and emotionally doing it. I feel a bit defeated in regard to diet, but will look into ways that I can tweak that. Thankyou for putting yourself out there, it gives me courage to try again
Dear Michelle, even just the attitude that we are going to try again is great! We will ask God for continued courage and little by little we will see results. Praying for you. Thanks for doing this journey with us. Much love Rosemary- BDCM Team

How can one not succeed when the prayer at the end lines up with His Will for all of us! If I only take off 10 pounds it will make a huge difference in my joint health and increased energy! We are all in it to win it…🙏👍🕊. May God get all the glory and we get to tell everyone we did it because Bruce, was prompted by the Holy Spirit and cared enough to bring this to light, asked others to join in! To his great surprise… young and old responded!😂

I gained a lot of weight slowly over many years. Seeking out help, I found a medical reason and a dietician who could help me. I lost around 30 kilos. But then two of my friends passed away having suffered for over a year, and I was privileged to be with them at times and support them. But weight was far from my priorities. I recovered my joy, having been assisted in this time by also finding Bruce’s ministry. But my weight went up again, and then I fought it back to around 5 kilos heavier than my best efforts.… Read more »

Praise God for you, Bruce, Rosemary, Emma, and all of us together seeking God in this! I’m so very thankful. How often I start and give up. I started eating better last month, and contacted a trainer for help in the exercise area. She can’t start with me till later in March. I’ve been walking and stretching, but recently got a bit discouraged. Just this morning I pulled out a cake recipe to make this eve. Meanwhile, I looked at my email and saw Week 1 with Lose Weight and Get Fit with The Catholic Guy, and now I see… Read more »
Dear Kate, such honesty about the cake recipe. We are all in this together- on the journey to health. Sometimes we will be tempted to go back to how we once were.

Thank you Bruce and Rosemary and your team for help in making me see thatGod is the partner I need to help me lose weight. I didn’t realize that you started your program until recently when I contacted you asking about it and Rosemary responded that you were already weeks into it. I played your first video and now I plan to lose that 15 pounds with the help of your weekly inspirational videos and my partner Jesus Christ. Thank you and God Bless, Frank Donovan
Dear Frank- Yes I learnt long ago that Jesus was the best partner, encourager, personal trainer that I needed to lose weight and keep fit, no matter my age. I would often pray for God to guide me in the right foods, right exercises, motivation, just like all other areas in my life that God wanted to work on. I can’t wait to hear of your journey of weight loss. Much love Rosemary

I just viewed EP1, and I am thrilled that you are not going to put us on diets. I truly believe that all food is good but in moderation. Are there really bad foods? I say, no! I do know what I need to do, (to eat when I’m hungry and small portions). Looks like many of you have started a few weeks ago. Perhaps, some sort of challenge would be fun? Thank you very much!

My journey began in my teens. And when I found I couldn’t do it I turned to drugs and diet pills. It lead to a horrible addiction but the Good News was I ended up giving my life to Christ at the time. I sat here thinking of this journey and tears flowed because I have seen my desperation and where it has lead. Now after many, many diets and losing up to 50 lbs at a time I see I need perhaps the help spiritually that I never added to the diet equation!. So I am grateful for this… Read more »

I am semi-retired at the age of 78. Last year covid hit me, not hard, but I still have lasting fatigue. I have put on some weight, about 9-10 lbs since.

I like Bruce could always eat whatever I wanted and not gain weight. 3 babies, 40 years later, I cannot do that anymore. 😊 I used to go to the gym, run or walk fast. I do nothing now, except work a part time job cleaning, so it is physical and volunteer in several ministries at my church. I am unsure of my plan at this time, but i am looking forward to it. Thank you Bruce for getting me motivated and thinking!! With Gods help we will succeed. 💕

Yesterday I came across this program accidentally while listening to daily devotional with Bruce. I listened and prayed. I already have been exercising 4 days a week with a small group and a trainer for quite a while. The meal plan I have I know works but following it consistently doesn’t happen and that’s why 60 lbs stays on. But the prayer you prayed helps me with the missing link! Thank you so much I will begin right now!! I have saved this prayer to pray every day!!🙏🏻
