What do you do when food has taken over your life?

Every minute is spent obsessing over food...what you're going to eat next...how much will you weigh when you wake up...

The thoughts can take over your life.

Most of us would agree that when we're serving something else, we can't serve God. And we may tend to think, "I don't have any additions, I don't bow to any idols, so this doesn't apply to me."

But today I want to get personal and talk about something that I call "the good girl's drug."

And that's food.

If you've ever thought, "If I was just thinner then my life would be perfect..." then this episode is for you!
