So, the admission that I am a recovering food addict is not only shared on this blog, but in the local newspaper! Medifast lined up the interview, and gave me a wonderful opportunity to share my story. I thank the Huntsville Times for reporting on the contest and my success.
The photos came out colorful, and the overall message of healthy eating, right thinking, and dependence on God was clear. The benefits of Medifast were acknowledged and celebrated. My love for vegetables, lean meat, and healthy eating was described. Super! I pray it helps someone who reads the article. And, once again I realize it is the most unlikely story I ever thought I’d share in a newspaper interview. Or online. Or in person.
So, if you read the paper, you might see a story about a girl who is a recovering addict. Yep, they’re talking about me. And, I’m glad to share my story, if it will help just one other person find freedom from the captivity of the pantry.
“Hello, my name is Jennifer, and I’m addicted to food…” (everyone clap and say, “Hello, Jennifer….”)
