Grateful for Freedom: My Thanksgiving Reflection

If Thanksgiving week feels heavy for you, I get it — I lived that way for years.

Today I’m simply grateful for how far I’ve come — from years of overeating and obsessing about food… to living in freedom and maintaining a healthy weight. Without God’s help, the 12 Steps, and a supportive group of friends, I never would have made it.

As we head into Thanksgiving week, my heart is overflowing with something I never want to take for granted: I’m grateful to be free.

For many of us, food has been a lifelong struggle. But I also know the freedom and joy that come when we pause, pray, and let God lead us moment by moment.

If you're facing that same tug-of-war this week, you’re not alone. And there is a way forward — a peaceful, steady, grace-filled path. You don’t have to walk it alone.

Wishing you a beautiful week of gratitude, grace, and God’s blessings. 🧡

You truly can “Be Thankful, Be Grateful, Be Blessed.”

Psalm 107:1 (ESV)

“Oh give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever!”
