Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ's)

  1. What is a LITE HEARTED meeting like?
    We always open our meeting with a brief time of devotion and prayer. We believe that our loving God wants us to live a healthy lifestyle. By assuring ourselves of His love for us, it helps us to respect the gift of our bodies, and to offer them back to God as a living sacrifice. We believe in honoring God by being the best wives, mothers, sisters, daughters, friends, and children of God that we can be--and being healthy helps us to that end.
  2. Do I have to weigh in?
    While we encourage members to weigh in weekly for accountability, it is ALWAYS optional. You are quite welcome to choose to not weigh in one week or ever! Lite Hearted is not about a number on the scale, it is about living a healthy lifestyle. A healthy weight is only one part of that. Even if you have already achieved and are maintaining a healthy weight, there is always something that can be done to achieve better health--eating better, exercising more, or growing in our walk with God.
  3. If I do weigh in, is it in front of the group?
    NEVER! Weigh-in is conducted in a private room and weights are kept in strictest confidence. You will never face judgment or criticism--only support encouragement, and empathy.
  4. Is Lite Hearted led by doctors or fitness experts?
    No. The Lite Hearted leadership team is made up of lay women in the church who themselves have chosen to pursue a healthier lifestyle. We do occasionally have guest speakers, including medical doctors, therapists, nutritionists, and exercise physiologists address the group.
  5. Is there childcare available?
    Yes, childcare is available for a free-will donation.
