About Truly Fed
Americans are sick, fat, and tired. In a country that spends over 32 billion dollars a year on diets and diet related products, you'd think we'd have a handle on the problem. Yet obesity rates continue to soar, as well as compulsive dieting and eating disorder patterns with food. Many have simply resigned themselves to living in a cesspool of confusion, anger, and self-loathing. TrulyFed tackles these issues head on. Living "in control" as many dieting books and plans promise is not the goal, but rather "living free" from the slavery of food plans, dietary restrictions, and the mental bullying that takes place in the mind. Truly Fed is based on the promise Jesus makes that "You will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
To clarify Jesus' words regarding freedom with food, Truly Fed defines and emphasizes that God's plan for food never includes the bondage of compulsive overeating, restrictive calorie intake (anorexic behavior), or punishing binges.
Due to my own life experience with compulsive overeating and anorexia, I offer heart-felt stories and sound insight into freedom by exposing self-defeating beliefs and lies. Truly Fed coins the words "disordered eating" rather than eating disorder, because many fail to realize that bondage to food can take on many forms, even seemingly healthy life-time memberships to institutions such as Weight Watchers. Many men and women think eating disorder is a word for the concentration camp looking anorexic, or food drunk binge eater, but fail to realize that compulsive overeating and yo-yo dieting are disordered eating as well.
After 22 years of freedom from food bondage in my own life, and teaching Truly Fed classes to people of all ages, I've come to realize that food is often the anesthesia of choice. Excessive drinking and drug use is an obvious no-no in most circles, but overeating, diet obsession, and binges seem more acceptable. Although most of this heartache is silently hidden, the severity of the damage to one's body, mind, and spirit is often untold because it's looked on as a lesser of evils. Truly Fed not only addresses this overlooked epidemic, but provides clear steps to expose the lies, and move towards a new life and relationship with food.
