Boredom, Holiday, and Hard-Life Eating w...

About this episode

If you feel like you will never get over your food struggles, today's episode of the Taste for Truth podcast will be a great encouragement (links below). I'm doing something different on this episode: I'm interviewing three people at one time! It's a mom and her two adult daughters, and we talk through many of the struggles they have had with food over the years, and how they are all finding their way to freedom in this area of their lives.

What We Discussed on the Podcast
  • Free-for-all holiday eating
  • Perfectionism eating
  • Strategies for avoiding a binge and a 3-month hiatus from boundaries
  • These lies and their corresponding truths:
    • "It's a holiday, I can eat as much as I want."
    • "If there are sweets in the house, you should eat them."
    • "I'm bored, food would be a great way to deal with it."
  • The key part that submission to God plays in breaking free from an eating stronghold
  • Different renewing of the mind strategies
  • Food as a coping mechanism
