Publisher's summary

*I'll Start Again Monday is a newly revised and condensed version of Lysa's bestseller Made to Crave.*

Have healthy eating plans left you feeling defeated? Based on her bestseller Made to Crave, Lysa TerKeurst offers a new perspective to all those stuck in the cycle of losing weight and then gaining it back, equipping you with the deeper spiritual and emotional motivation you need to make lasting changes.

So often we characterize our food cravings as bad, especially when dieting has made us feel even more disappointed and discouraged. But the reality is we were made to crave. We just need to realize God created us to crave more of Him instead of misplacing that craving by overindulging in physical pleasures and unhealthy choices that will never truly satisfy. In the midst of her own personal struggle with this, New York Times bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst invites us to embrace a new outlook that leads to enduring change. In this newly revised and condensed version of Made to Crave, Lysa encourages you to

• Break the cycle of "I'll start again Monday" and start taking steps toward consistency that lasts.
• Stop agonizing over numbers on the scale and make peace with your body.
• Replace rationalizations that lead to failure with wisdom that leads to victory.
• Reach your healthy goals and grow closer to God through the process.

This is not a "how-to" book. This is not the latest and greatest dieting plan. This is the necessary resource to use alongside whatever healthy lifestyle plan you choose that will help you find your "want to" and lead to a spiritual satisfaction that goes far beyond the physical.

Look for additional biblically-based resources and devotionals from Lysa:

• Forgiving What You Can't Forget
• It's Not Supposed to Be This Way
• Uninvited
• You're Going to Make It
• Embraced

Excellent!

I listened to the whole book today. I have the actual book and plan to mark the scriptures as a helpful reference. The information is a WOW moment. Many WOW moments!

A New Perspective.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I read other reviews that claim the book is basically a repeat of another book, I have not read that book so it was exactly what I needed. It gives a new perspective on your relationship with food and how to use it to grow your relationship with God. I plan to listen to it again and put these words to action in my own life.

Life Enhancing

This book is unlike any I've read on this topic! This has changed my perspective towards myself and food!

Helpful for healthy eating

Help to understand the effect of emotional eating and the the long term effects on my health and well-being.

Love the spiritual truths in this book

There are many books available today about what to eat how to diet etc. but I love that this book challenges search our hearts to do the hard work of dethroning food as an idol and leaving all excuses behind. It’s a refreshing, well written great perspective to get back on track. I love the reminder to invite God into the battle for self-control.
