Many of us picked up lies about food and eating when we were very young. Those lies tend to follow us into adulthood and sabotage our relationship with food. However, there is hope! Through the renewing of the mind, and going to God (instead of food) for help with life’s difficulties, we can regain a healthy relationship with food. On the Taste for Truth Podcast today, Jennifer talks about her journey to letting go of emotional eating and finding victory in this area of her life.
What We Discussed on the Podcast
- The early lessons Jennifer learned that sabotaged her relationship with food
- The surprising result of giving up the skinny idol
- Trigger times of the day
- What was different in Jennifer’s weight loss journey this time around
- “Growth points” and perfectionism
- The disconnect about having boundaries in other areas of our lives and having boundaries with food
Announcements
I also wanted to mention that I will be tapering off and ultimately ending the Taste for Truth Podcast sometime in the next 2-4 months. I will still be doing my Christian Habits Podcast, and all of the past Taste for Truth episodes will still be available! I’m just at a place in my life where I need to find a work-life balance that is sustainable, and going down to one podcast seems like a very helpful way to do that.
I am also planning to give online course creation a try. If you are interested in staying informed about that, click here.
