01UndatedWe are beautiful because we are sons and daughters of God, not because we look a certain way.Kate Wicker / quote ↗
02UndatedPerhaps a past of bingeing, restricting, or purging comes back to haunt you from time to time. Maybe you have to fight hard battles against vanity, gluttony, and shame. But with God’s saving power, every new day is a gift, an opportunity to detach yourself from tormenting thoughts about food or how you look and to attach yourself to God. Remember, we all hunger for God, more than we hunger for a big bowl of ice cream or a perfect physique.Kate Wicker / quote ↗
03UndatedThe good news is that there is one kind of food you can never have too much of. The best way to fully recover from a food addiction or body-image problem is to fill up on the Lord.Kate Wicker / quote ↗
05UndatedYou are a beloved child of God. But please remember this, too: You are human. You cannot expect to eat perfectly, look perfect, or be perfect. When you stumble, pick yourself up, even if you have to do it again and again.Kate Wicker / quote ↗
07UndatedI used to think, that when my old inner demons started creeping back into my life, that it was a sign of failure or moral weakness. But the saints have shown me that part of the human condition is to struggle with the same sins and suffering over and over again. Once I accepted the fact that I’d probably always have to be on guard against spiritual attacks related to food and my weight, I began to really recover.Kate Wicker / quote ↗
08UndatedWe have it in our head that if we fill our stomachs, we’ll fill our hearts.Kate Wicker / quote ↗
09UndatedWe clean our plates, yet we’re still famished—starving for something other than food.Kate Wicker / quote ↗
