Excellent

As I am looking to honor God even in my eating habits, this book has caused me to look at my motivations for doing so, so that weight loss and health in general don't become idols.

terrible

This book was highly recommended by Candace Cameron Bure. I thought it was going to be amazing because she said it was and I like when Candace posts about food. I had a general expectation that this would be about food. I did not expect it to be a really badly written sermon about how a bunch of our sins are food related. Also the donut on the cover looks delicious.
Thoughts while listening:
It feels like I'm listening to someone who doesn't know what their opinion is but is trying to convince you she does. ...I think this but I'm not saying this because of that but not that per se...
"Try to pray at the same time every day." The Bible says pray continually. God wants a relationship, not a scheduled meeting.
"Eating sinfully." "Your eating is sinful." Bro.
This book is more like criticism rather than anything helpful. It consistently talks about eating disorders as if they're nothing. The whole tone around eating being shameful because you can be doing "something better" with your time - like reading the Bible so others can see holiness through you just feels so gross.
Zero stars. Terrible book. I'll continue to be grateful for and enjoy my food thanks.

Disappointed

I was very excited about this book. I was all fired up after reading Intuitive Eating, and I wanted more anti-diet content, and it was even from a Christian perspective! It sounds fantastic! But the book barely talked about eating, and in summary says you must use self-control (of course with emphasis that God can help you) to eat healthy. But it constantly talks about sinful eating and idolatry around food, and it stirs up MORE anxiety and guilt about food rather than less. It promotes calorie and macro counting with no real nutrition advice. Of course, there is some benefit of reading it as with almost any book, but overall I completely disagree with the author’s approach. I think this book could even be harmful toward someone who needs real help with their eating. Also, the narrator has a pretty voice, but she practically whispers half the time which is pretty annoying.
