The image on the left was taken eleven years ago on the streets of Manhattan. It was very difficult to keep up with my teenage son. Finally, I told him to go ahead and sightsee without me. After he disappeared into the crowd, I found an ice-cream shop. . .my drug of choice to help me cope. The image on the right is me today. I’m going back to New York next week to visit a daughter and son-in-law. I can walk for miles now!

Setting Captives Free!

May 29, 2019 in food addiction recovery

This morning during a podcast interview, I realized once again that it’s the hard times we go through that teach us the greatest lessons.

It was the years of ongoing struggle to find a solution to the addiction to high-fat, high-salt, processed food and sweets that has ignited my passion to now help others get free.

During nearly every interview, the host typically asks, “What inspired you to write Starved to Obesity?”

And it’s without hesitation I respond, “Because I never want anyone else to have to suffer the same demise. I wish I had read the book—and I wish my parents had read the book-- when I was a kid. It would’ve saved my then-and-future family many years of needless pain and suffering.  

 Recently, I saw this quote on Instagram:

“Your past can light the future for others.” -Lisa Bevere

Whether you are struggling to hold life together in the midst of the addiction or you’re a concerned person wanting to know how to help someone you care about, my book is for you.

Here’s to your freedom and good health!


Emily Boller, artist, mother, and author of Starved to Obesity, lost 100 pounds more than fifteen years ago by eating an abundance of high-nutrient, plant-rich foods. Today, she’s certified in whole plant nutrition from the Nutritarian Education Institute. She’s on a mission to combine practical, no-nonsense and cost-effective tips—with easy to understand science—in order to help anyone escape the addictive grip of the Standard American Diet. And now, she’s on a mission to bring awareness to the suffocating and potentially deadly trap of eating disorders as well.
