I decided back in March to come off SFW (sugar, flour, wheat). I am doing this for many reasons but the top two are my health (both physical and mental) and my relationship with the Lord.
I have joined FAA (Food Addicts Anonymous) and it has been amazing. I definitely haven’t followed the program as I should but that is what this post is about. I at one time had over thirty days no SFW. That is when the lies started in my mind telling me that that what I am doing is not necessary. After listening the lies for long enough and not turning to my sponsor and my God, I relapsed.
I am starting again. I want this badly. I want my health back. I want to grow closer to the Lord than I ever have before.
One thing that is very hard for me is to not eat when I am bored or really when I am doing anything that is easy or allows for snacking. But, there are so many reasons to not do that.
