“You are never given a dream without also
being given the power to make it true.
You may have to work for it, however”

Woman, Food & God. An unexpected path to almost everything. Deur Geneeen Roth.
Ek’t ‘n week gelede van hierdie boek gehoor en vir drie dae was dit al waaraan ek kon dink… nadat ek nou al hieraan begin lees het – en ek is mos nie eintlik ‘n leser nie 
voel dit al hoe meer asof die boek se titel eintlik moes wees: “Tenille, Food and God” en as jy al ooit in jou lewe in die situasie was of dalk ‘n emosional eater is… “jou naam, Food & God”
Ek kan nie eintlik enige iets sê wat hierdie boek sou justice doen nie, maar dit is ONGELOOFLIK!
Dis asof ek vir die eerste keer, minder alleen en minder mal voel.
Ek haal graag vir julle aan:
”And precisely because dieting and bingeing were the main ways I was expressing my despair, the consequences of not dieting or bingeing were staggering. Making the decision to stop was like commiting heresy, like breaking a vow that was never supposed to be broken. It was like saying , “you were wrong God, You were wrong, Mom. I am worth saving.”
“They have whole friendships built on commiseration about the twenty pounds they have to loose and the jeans that are to tight and the latest and greatest diets. They fit in by hating themselves. By trying hard and then harder to loose that last 20, 40, 50 pounds – and never being able to do it. The never being able to do it is necessary if they want to fit in. The constant war with food and body size is important if they want to be loved. You always have something to do. As long as you’re striving and pushing and trying hard to do something that can never be don, you know who you are: someone with a weight problemwho is working hard to be thin. You don’t have to feel lost or helpless because you always have a goal and that goal can never be reached.”
