When I was little and into my teens, I was talt by TV, the world and the people around me that looks were the key to the good life, and if I wanted a piece of the pie I better look the part. I was told looks got it all. Now as a mommy of three, I just have to say that was some pretty bad teaching that costed me almost a lifetime of pain. After a 20 year battle of fighting the stronghold of flesh and vanity, I can say that God has healed me from a major eating disorder. Here's the thing, yes I have beened healed, but now I have to be delivered from the old man habits and behaviors that I have created over the years. In the last two years I have gained and look Healthier than I have when I was sick, but I have found out that , I don't know how to eat. I know to the normal person this sounds crazy but , to someone like me its a big deal. So what do you do when you're fighting so hard to keep up with the right thing to do when your a recovering glutathione bulimic girl. The answer was and is simply this for me, I have yelded to the power of God and asked for help. By doing so, my eyes have been opened to new ideas and resources such as Myfitnesspal app. and good teaching from others around me. Getting on Bishop's vitamin supplements and his protein powder, and staying on it. Making the time to workout. Myself control is growing every day and I am seeing just how much one bit will cost me. I am know looking forward to this new page in my life and to help others that may have similar stories or the just need for the 'HOW TO' and encouragement by giving my personal testimony along the way. I have a ways to go, not by losing wight to much, but by breaking bad habits. They say it is easier to make new habits than to break old ones, so I am believing for the chains to be broken completely for good.
