Summary

Based on her bestselling book Made to Crave, but now distilled down for busy readers, Lysa TerKeurst offers a new perspective to all those stuck in the cycle of losing weight but then gaining it back, equipping readers with the deeper spiritual and emotional motivation they need to make lasting changes。

So often we characterize our food cravings as bad or guilt-inducing。 But craving isn't a bad thing。 The reality is we were made to crave。 We just need to realize God created us to crave more of Him instead of misplacing that craving by overindulging in physical pleasures and unhealthy food that will always disappoint。 In the midst of her own personal struggle with this, New York Times bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst invites us to find the missing link between a woman's desire to be healthy and the spiritual empowerment necessary to make that happen。 In this newly revised and condensed book, Lysa shows us how to


break the cycle of "I'll start again Monday" and feel good about yourself today;
stop agonizing over numbers on the scale and make peace with your body;
replace rationalizations that lead to failure with wisdom that leads to victory; and
reach your healthy goals and grow closer to God through the process。
This is not a "how-to" book。 This is not the latest and greatest dieting plan。 This is the necessary resource to use alongside whatever healthy lifestyle plan you choose that will help you find your "want to" and lead to a spiritual satisfaction that goes far beyond the physical。

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an ARC copy of this book in exchange for an honest review。I have read and enjoyed almost all of Lysa TerKeurst's previous book。 This book pulls most of its material from one of her books about 10 years ago, Made to Crave: Satisfying Your Deepest Desire with God, Not Food 。 So, if you have read that one, I don't think you need to read this book necessarily。 This book was short and an easy but empowering read。 It comes at the idea of food and Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for providing an ARC copy of this book in exchange for an honest review。I have read and enjoyed almost all of Lysa TerKeurst's previous book。 This book pulls most of its material from one of her books about 10 years ago, Made to Crave: Satisfying Your Deepest Desire with God, Not Food 。 So, if you have read that one, I don't think you need to read this book necessarily。 This book was short and an easy but empowering read。 It comes at the idea of food and eating from an emotional and spiritual angle, helping you deal with the root problem of unhealthy relationships with food。 Lysa is an honest and humble author who speaks from her own experience in a way that helps the reader to feel understood and less isolated。 This book does not seek to give health or dietary advice but talks about allowing God to be our source of satisfaction and not seeking to fill the need for God in our life with anything else, including food。 I think this book is a great read for all women, whether looking to lose weight or not。 。。。more

Loved this book。 Powerful points。 Thanks to author, publisher and Netgalley for the chance to read this book。 While I got the book for free, it had no bearing on the rating I gave it。

Lysa's starkly honest yet gentle voice rings especially clear in this reboot of her book "Made to Crave" on unhealthy eating and food addictions。 Everything most helpful and essential from the previous book has been packed into a concise, hard-to-put-down book that is brief enough anyone can digest the wisdom。 "I'll Start Again Monday" is approachable, shame-free, and warmly guides readers to discover the root of their cravings--more of God。 It's not about the numbers on the scale or the size of Lysa's starkly honest yet gentle voice rings especially clear in this reboot of her book "Made to Crave" on unhealthy eating and food addictions。 Everything most helpful and essential from the previous book has been packed into a concise, hard-to-put-down book that is brief enough anyone can digest the wisdom。 "I'll Start Again Monday" is approachable, shame-free, and warmly guides readers to discover the root of their cravings--more of God。 It's not about the numbers on the scale or the size of your jeans。 Lysa challenges us to find permanent healthy eating habits through "spiritual empowerment。" Her personal stories and no-nonsense manner will keep readers engaged。 Her Healthy Eating Go-To scripts give action steps to apply from the start。 This book will be one readers keep within reach to reference and find encouragement from again and again。 。。。more
