I established a relationship with Jesus! Through my search, Jesus changed my thinking, making me understand that to have victory is to change my lifestyle. I had to renew my mind, change the way I looked at food and life. I chose life! With help from Jesus, I researched with the direction of the Holy Spirit, finding my way to true success! Stop living to eat! Start eating to live! This author was grossly overweight. For many years she failed with every diet she had ever tried, losing a pound here and there.
