After working through this issue using the tools we have at our fingertips, I felt healed from my negative feelings. I shared with my friend and accountability partner Deanna Lewis that I felt like I had been washed on an old fashioned wash board, put through a wringer and now I have been hung up […]
Right now I am involved in a study called “A Taste for Truth” by Barb Raveling. It’s a great way to learn to renew my mind and fits nicely with eating “intuitively”, or 0-5. A few days ago, I joined the discussion on the chapter regarding emotional eating. My good friend Deanna Burris, who is […]
Years ago I lost over 65 pounds doing a hunger/fullness plan. This was before I knew about Thin Within. All was good until I moved to a new city and I started to slowly slip away from that. I stared turning again to food for comfort. I thought I needed accountability and so started my years […]
by Marilyn Osborn I have been struggling with weight issues and a focus on outside appearances for over thirty-five years. Before Thin Within, I was involved with a weight-loss program that, similar to Thin Within, teaches “All foods are permissible.

Get 2016 off to a great start! We are sure you want more out of yourself and out of life than empty New Year’s resolutions — which are often promises made because everyone at the office is making them or because all the family members are sharing theirs.

Although these may all be wonderful blessings, who has time to focus on 0 to 5 or be mindful about eating? (If we are honest, we […]
The more I get into the Word of God through the Thin Within classes, the more I want to whet my appetite for every spiritual blessing that is found in Christ. Barb Raveling’s bible study, Taste for Truth, is another one of her inspiring writings that have kept me motivated to stay within my boundaries. […]
A few weeks ago I completed a weight-loss Bible study called Taste For Truth by Barb Raveling. A friend of mine and I went through the study together. We would send an email to one another each day sharing some of our answers to the study questions and just discussing what we learned in the chapter that day. I am a […]
Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:13-14 This Week’s Video: […]
