Skinny-Fat Girl: A Message of Hope, Perseverance, and the Grace of God in the Midst of Anorexia
()
About this ebook
Throughout the ten years Amber Gabrielson struggled with anorexia and obsessive compulsive disorder, she battled insecurities, self-doubt, and self-hatred that sent her down a dark path of desperation. As her parents and friends tried to understand why she couldn’t “just eat,” Amber realized she could not explain it to them when she didn’t even understand it herself.
In an inspirational retelling of her personal experiences, Amber offers a glimpse into the emotions and challenges associated with a complicated disease to provide others with hope that even in the most trying of circumstances, recovery is possible. After revealing insight into the behaviors associated with OCD and how those eventually led to her fear of food at age thirteen followed by an obsessive need to weigh herself constantly, exercise vigorously, and measure her food, Amber discloses how she ultimately clawed her way out of the darkness and into the light of healing, peace, self-love, and joy to discover a beautiful relationship with God.
Skinny-Fat Girl depicts a young woman’s roller-coaster journey through anorexia and OCD as she learned to heal, embrace her true self, and welcome God’s unconditional love.
