Just because a woman finally fits into her skinny jeans doesn't mean she's won her battle with food. Too often, women overlook the spiritual component to their physical struggle with healthy eating. Made to Crave taps into the desires God gave you to consume food without letting food consume you!
Made to Crave is the missing link between a woman's desire to be healthy and the spiritual empowerment necessary to make that happen. The reality is we were made to crave. Craving isn't a bad thing. But we must realize God created us to crave more of him. Many of us have misplaced that craving by overindulging in physical pleasures instead of lasting spiritual satisfaction. If you are struggling with unhealthy eating habits, you can break the "I'll start again Monday" cycle, and start feeling good about yourself today. Learn to stop beating yourself up over the numbers on the scale. Discover that your weight loss struggle isn't a curse but rather a blessing in the making, and replace justifications that lead to diet failure with empowering go-to scripts that lead to victory. You can reach your healthy weight goal - and grow closer to God in the process. This is not a how-to book. This is not the latest and greatest dieting plan. This book is the necessary companion for you to use alongside whatever healthy lifestyle plan you choose. This is a book and Bible study to help you find the "want to" in making healthy lifestyle choices. 224 pages. Companion Bible study DVD set also available. http://madetocrave.org/purchase-resources/
My review: I love the subtitle, Satisfying Your Deepest Desire with God, Not Food. This book is all about replacing our cravings for things with a craving for God, the only One who can truly satisfy. It is not about weight loss and skinny jeans, but about the attitude of our heart, and the choices we make. God has designed us to live victoriously. The choices we make have more to do with our freedom to become who we are meant to be, rather than restrictions. This is not a temporary "fix", but is all about the next decision we will make.
Lysa concludes each chapter with thoughtful questions, personal reflections to help us think through and apply the things she has shared. At the conclusion of the book, Lysa has included helpful Scriptures that she has mentioned in each chapter, or which relate to the chapter theme. She also includes healthy eating 'go-to' scripts for a number of scenarios. This book is written compassionately from Lysa's heart, and will be very helpful for any woman who is serious about a commitment to be all God meant her to be. Be sure and visit Lysa's website and blog for further encouragement. DVD curriculum is also available for group discussion.
