A must-read for anyone with a disordered relationship with food who is also looking for a way forward from Robinson's authentic voice of comfort, resilience, and newfound strength."</p><p>-Meredith Atwood, author of The Year of No Nonsense</em> and host of The Same 24 Hour</em>s podcast</p><p><br></p><p><em>"Out of the Pantry</em> is honest and eye-opening. Ronni Robinson writes her way through the secrecy and shame of food addiction, exposing the insidious nature of compulsive overeating."</p><p>-Erin Khar, author of <em>STRUNG OUT: One Last Hit </em>and <em>Other Lies That Nearly Killed Me</em></p><p><br></p><p>"Robinson's story is a brave account of her lifelong struggle with an eating disorder (overeating/binge eating) and her commitment to a life in recovery. With direct and empathetic honesty, Robinson invites us on her journey from illness to wellness: we come to know the little girl who secretly devours snacks as a way to mask her insecurities and fears; the teenager who tries to 'stuff ' down her feelings of inadequacy and body shame, exacerbated by an abusive boyfriend; and the wife and mother who is trying to find her way through her addiction with courage and integrity. She shows us how she learned to give up empty calories for the fullness of love and how she learned to trust her body's hungers and accept the perfection of her imperfections."</p><p>-Kerry Neville, author of the short fiction collections Remember to Forget Me and Necessary Lies and contributor to The Huffington Post, The Washington Post, and The Fix</p><p><br></p><p>"A candid, vulnerable, and courageous share of Robinson's battle with compulsive overeating. Once I started reading, the book drew me in, and I had to read it all the way through. She gives a very human perspective on the real challenges that people face with overeating disorders."</p><p>-David Glover, MS, 28x IRONMAN finisher and author of Full Time & Sub-Nine</p><p><br></p><p>"If you are looking for an honest, candid, and moving journey from binge eating disorder to recovery, Out of the Pantry is a must-read. Ronni describes so vividly how food addiction develops from the roots of childhood, grows through the insipid 'food rules' that characterize binge eating, and results in an entire secret life that so powerfully diminishes the light in all other areas. Her recovery journey is not only inspiring, it's instructive: she clearly lays out the exact path she took to become healthy and happy not only in her body but-most importantly -in her mind. Her honest and straightforward portrayal of disordered eating and subsequent recovery will have you both empathizing with and rooting for her and-if you've ever suffered from disordered eating-nodding in the recognition that yes, you can recover too."</p><p>-Brooke Randolph, Overeating Recovery Coach and owner of Sober&Hungry</p><p><br></p><p>"Ronni writes from a place of true vulnerability and brave authenticity. Any reader will be able to empathize with Ronni's journey-and they'll find inspiration in her triumphs along the way."</p>-Kristen Geil, Chief Content Officer, aSweatLife<br>
