Do you eat when youre stressed? Or when youre bored, lonely, or annoyed? If so, this app will help! It contains 32 sets of questions and 150+ Bible verses you can use to go to God for help with weight loss!

Here’s how it works. When you’re in a tempting situation, all you can think of is the food: how it looks. How it smells. And how good it would taste. What you need is a way to break the hold it has on you. This app will help. The questions are designed to help you see the big picture: Will eating really make you happy? Will it be worth it? Would it be better not to eat?

The questions and Bible verses will help you get a biblical perspective on life - and that will help you break free from those negative emotions that drive you to eat. As you go through the questions and the verses, you’ll begin to see your desires change - so youll no longer even want that donut!

Here’s why: It’s the lies you believe about food that make you want to overeat. When you replace those lies with truth, you’ll actually want to follow your boundaries. And that will help you lose weight and keep it off.

There is also a Bible study that goes with this app called Taste for Truth: A 30 Day Weight Loss Bible Study which is available at Amazon.

Pros and cons of I Deserve a Donut app for iPhone and iPad

I Deserve a Donut app good for

I have struggled in this area all my life, and this is really good for me to have these wise words with me at all times. I can refresh myself with truth when I have a spare moment!
Have been looking for this kind of help for a long time! Now to make using it a transforming habit...
Set up in a quick series of questions promoting change of thinking why you you want to succumb to unhealthy eating to the true lasting thought why you really want to eat whats good for you. Successfully deals with the subtle lies we believe that promote destructive eating habits. Biblical reinforcement of the true Christian perspective of healthy habits. Because this ap is on my phone and the questions/scriptures take less than 5 minutes to review, Im able to use this often in my day giving me strength saying yes to healthy habits at the cliff edge of temptation.
I had this app several months before I really put it to use. It is so good, so valuable. It makes you really think and consider what you are doing, why and consider if that is really what you want to do. It helps if you use it.
This app is designed well. Easy to navigate and use. Why do I need this app? I needed something quick to turn to address my many bad reasons, other than hunger, for wanting to eat. I have in a flash at my finger tip a tool to turn to to pin point my cravings and address them instead of giving in to them. The verses of scripture that address each emotion or lie that leads me to binge is right in this app organized for quick referencing! I recommend it.
Highly recommend for anyone wanting to address the root cause of poor eating choices. I would love to see scripture or scripture references within the app where the thought provoking questions ask what God would want you to do so there is a proper Christian answer for those less versed in the Bible. Great work!!!

Some bad moments

great app! a genius way to keep yourself focused on mindful eating. the design is very cute & the layout is easy to read. awesome!!!
This app helps me to remember when I start to slide into my bad emotional eating habits that God is still the portion of whats missing and He really is the only thing that can fill my emptiness. Barb writes convicting questions and backs up with scripture in a non condemning way.
I love having these helpful questions with me all the time. The best way for me to deal with temptation: immediately! This app always offers just what I need to hear in my moment of temptation.
I actually just bought an ipod and a big reason was so that I could use this app. It is so great to have the questions right with you and easy to use during every situation. They have really changed the way I thought about food.
This app is a great way to do what Paul said in Romans12:2 "be transformed by the renewing of your mind." Not only do the questions and verses work for controlling your food habits, but they also work with renewing your mind and changing your attitude in sin areas. I highly recommend this app for anyone who wants to change!
Great information, inspiration and Bible verses to help renew and redirect my mind when Im getting "off-track."
