Stuffing Myself Silly: The Story of a Food Junkie

by Stephanie Campbell, Jonathan Ambar (editor), Bernadette McHugh (editor)

Home for Steph was filled with love, laughter, and delicious home-cooked meals. But beneath the surface lingered deep wounds, as her mother's schizoaffective disorder and her father’s absence were insidiously destroying her family.Food for Steph became a crutch, an escape from love that went awry. She tried every trick in the book to curb her compulsive eating and was a complete success at failing at all of them. It wasn’t until she confronted her demons that she began developing a new, more nourishing relationship with food, her thoughts, her body, and her parents.Stuffing Myself Silly is the sometimes heartbreaking, sometimes hilarious, and ultimately life-affirming story of a woman who understands what it’s like to use food to cope with struggles, a woman who ultimately found strength and clarity beyond her wildest imaginings, a woman who now stuffs herself silly with patience, love, and unconditional self-acceptance, no matter what.
