023: Secret Eating Captivity

True Food Freedom & Faith with Cheryl Szarko, RDN

If this topic has caught your attention, please give this episode a listen. The issue of secrecy in eating is an important one because of the consequences it carries. If you have a practice of secret eating or secretly avoiding food, I want to encourage you today. I also want to shed a bit of light on the beginning of the path to true freedom from this practice and all the related entanglements it represents.

If you are someone who is regularly, purposefully eating in secret, the truth that you need to hear is that you probably need some help and that you likely can't see the real problem clearly by yourself. I really want you to know that this issue should be taken lightly.

But I also want you to know that you are not alone, you are not a freak, you are not a "fake Christian." You are a person who is suffering, perhaps more than you’ve even allowed yourself to acknowledge. There is hope for you, my sister, and I want to love on you a bit today.

If this is you and you want to work with me through one-on-one private online counseling, schedule a free consultation with me at cherylszarko.com/15-minute-free-consultation/ You will need help from a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and someone mature in the faith who is devoted to ministering Scripture faithfully and applicably. I am a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist and a Biblical Counselor and have my own experience escaping from the disordered eating dungeon. If you would like to find a faithful, mature Biblical Counselor near you, please visit biblicalcounseling.com and search for an ACBC certified Biblical Counselor near you.
