Welch, "Eating Disorders: The Quest for Thinness"

"In this article, Ed Welch describes how easy it is, in a weight-conscious world that also uses food for comfort, to take the small steps that lead to a full blown eating disorder. He gives a road map for dealing with this difficult problem that includes understanding the thoughts and emotions that trigger destructive eating habits and then encouraging those who struggle with food addictions to take the big step of trusting God, instead of food rules and rituals."

In addition to the article, you can also order the fuller booklet (for $2.71), upon which the article is based.
