My Food

Read my story –including how I got to a place of victory with food—in my book about knowing your worth, Happiness No Man Required 50 Tips for Single Women to be Happy With or Without A Man. It is not against true love or good men but the shame of addiction with a few chapters about how I experienced victory over food addiction as a journey of being whole in Jesus alone. This confidence only comes as a gift, as we learn how to go to  “the Bread of Life” in times of stress instead of binge eating and keep our eyes on God through every emotion. Part of being human is to experience every single emotion including happiness, joy, fear, loneliness and pain. Food is just food. Only God can heal. In the Bible, Jesus is called a friend for sinners and promises to make a home for the lonely. My prayer is that you will know Him as your friend, too, in a place where God fills up your empty heart and anxious thoughts with His love to leave you with newfound confidence, energy, strength, joy and peace. Only then can you look in the mirror and see someone you like. It’s not about the weight. It is about living in the moment and living life to its fullest every day with a joy that no one else can give.
