My story
In January 2007, at the age of 51, I joined a 12-step program and began my recovery from food addiction, losing 75 pounds in the process. Read more…

In January 2011, at the age of 55, I began my recovery from a multi-trauma accident, 36 fractures, damaged lungs, and post traumatic stress. Read more…

I am deeply grateful for all the kindnesses, large and small, offered to me in recovery. Here I am... alive… still making progress … still not perfect … finding a new way forward in a growing community of women and men who share a lot in common around food and life.

I hope you'll join me in this kitchen and let me know what's cooking with you.

Wolfing

 

Day 10 of Continuing Recovery

The ravening wolf. She is waking in me, ready to leap. She wants to devour. She wants. She is pure want.

The power of life and the inevitability of death come to my attention. The wolf rouses from a dreamy sleep and, more fight than flight, she begins to hunt.

So, dear Wolf, this is your daughter Valerie. Please fill me with what I truly need.

Love & Light,

Valerie
