I've learned: don't count The Days, make the Days count, and when you're in the moment, when you want to pick up, whether it's food or whatever, whatever, whatever is the addiction du jour, I'll say of The Day you know, make a phone call first, because the craving, the craving like the yearning it does pass.
Imagine feeling the urge to eat so intensely that it consumes your every thought. Wendy's journey with food addiction began at the tender age of two. She would eat everything on her plate and still crave more, even resorting to taking food from others. This early compulsion evolved into a struggle with anorexia, bulimia, and excessive use of laxatives as she grew older.
In this episode of Steppin' Out Radio, Wendy opens up about her tumultuous relationship with food and the path she took to reclaim her life. She shares the pivotal moment when she found Overeaters Anonymous, a community that offered the understanding and support she desperately needed. Wendy also talks about the complexities of dating and maintaining relationships while grappling with food addiction.
Her story is a powerful reminder that cravings and yearnings do pass, and seeking support can make all the difference. Tune in to hear Wendy's honest and heartfelt account of her battle with compulsive eating and her journey towards recovery.
