I completed this study in the fall of 2008.For me it was the first time I've experienced God's grace in the matter of my weight.I've been so steeped in self condemnation and legalism that I never sought God or believed that He would be willing to work in this area of my life.It felt like my choices = my consequences and all I had to do was get myself under control - which should be easy enough?But...thru this study I learned that I had many false beliefs about God and many motivations for my eating that I can to prayerfully surrender to God - in Romans it says that 'they exchanged the truth of God for a lie' - but...I can exchange the lies I've believed for the truth of God.Now I can honestly say that my focus has shifted from myself and my failings to God and compassion toward me and His Holy Spirit at work in me.
I highly recommend this book to any woman who struggles with emotional eating - not just weight issues - to be set free from the legalism of dieting and conforming to the cultural standard - and be the woman God created you to be.
