As a writer and speaker, I have focused extensively on disordered food, weight and body image issues, including my book, “Thin Enough: My Spiritual Journey Through the Living Death of an Eating Disorder,” and in recovery-based publications, like “In Recovery Magazine” and “Serene Scene.” However, since my 2017 breast cancer diagnosis, I now turn some of my attention to this issue, all from the perspective that the diagnosed woman is valid in making whatever choices she desires concerning her treatment. And, in my spare time, I try to clean up the issues running amuck in my life, such as they are. It’s messy. It’s painful. And sometimes, it’s even fun. But it’s all worth it. So, issues running amuck, a/k/a, my life. I endeavor to live it, with as many good hair days as possible!

Thin Enough
I tackle food, weight, value, and image issues which are often found within disordered eating. I explore these topics, writing for both faith and recovery-focused publications, and in my book, “Thin Enough: My Spiritual Journey Through the Living Death of an Eating Disorder.”
Dr. Gregory L. Jantz, Ph.D. Certified Eating Disorder Professional Founder and Director, The Center for Counseling and Health Resources, Incorporated:
"Renewing the mind with God’s Truth not only keeps you on the path of recovery, but will keep you walking strong towards victory… Sheryle Cruse does an excellent job in this book stepping you through the healing process.”
Don Nielson, Treasurer and Co-Founder, National Eating Disorders Association:
"Sheryle Cruse has written a wonderful book that takes a deep look inside the thinking of a sufferer of an eating disorder...”
Pastor Lisa Bevere, Messenger International Ministries, Author of “Kissed the Girls and Made them Cry” and “Be Angry, But Don’t Blow It:”
"Sheryle Cruse knows of what she speaks. She has written a way of escape from the dark abyss of eating disorders into the shelter of the Most High... It is a brave raw book for every daughter, mother or sister who has encountered this shadowy existence.”
Linda J. Macdonald, Christian Counselor:
“Sheryle writes a creative, heart-rending story of her battle with anorexia and bulimia and the spiritual revelation that saved her life. She transparently shares her jagged journey from bondage to freedom in a way that those who struggle with this frightening disorder will identify with. Her questions for journaling are as good as hours of therapy. Once I started reading, I could hardly put it down. I heartily recommend it.”
