It’s called A Future For Tomorrow It’s
written by Hayley Hatch Freeman. As a
teenager Hayley struggled with anorexia.
It started out just losing a few pounds, cutting out fats, sugars,
wheat, and exercising 3 hours a day. She
got down to 85 pounds and is 5 foot 9 inches tall. This book gets you inside Hayley’s head how
she fought for recovery.
I couldn’t put this book
down. It has such an uplifting ending. The
book gave me hope. I honestly want
everyone to read this book it’s the best book I’ve ever read.

The Back Of the Book
"A Future for Tomorrow is an extraordinary non-fiction account of the
author’s actual battle against anorexia nervosa as well as a spiritual triumph
against evil.
You will be brought into the anorexic mind, shown the fierce war against
depression and self-depreciative thoughts and actions; and witness the gravity
of the destruction this disease can do.
A deeply edifying experience will occur as you journey with the author to that
eternal world. There, angels confirm to her gospel truths such as the intensity
of Christ’s love, and the sacred and holy nature of our Father’s plan for his
children here on Earth.
What other people thought of this book
"I highly recommend it to anyone who is struggling with or trying to help
someone struggling with an eating disorder. If I'd known things then that this
book has helped me to learn, perhaps I could have helped her more. It is also
great for the casual reader, an interesting view for those who have never dealt
with this kind of self hatred or addictive behavior. Surprisingly, for such a
depressing and scary topic, it is extremely uplifting and inspirational.
Definitely five stars!" Melody Litton
"A Future for Tomorrow is a heart-wrenching look into the mind and heart
of a young girl who struggles with anorexia and shows the reader what it's like
to battle the disease every day. While at times the story is sorrowful, in the
end I came away filled with the knowledge that for all those who suffer with
debilitating eating disorders, there is hope. There is promise. They can be
made whole again and look to their futures with joy and happiness as Haley did,
leaning on her relationship with Jesus Christ and coming to a deeper understanding
of her true place as a daughter of God." --Tristi Pinkston
"It's so nice for me to read about someone's else who had such a similar
experience to mine--someone who I could really relate to and vice versa.
Because one of the terrible things about anorexia is the feeling of being
completely alone. It's nice to know that there is someone else out there who
can really understand." --Micaela, recovered from anorexia
“It is very much an LDS book, but I would give it to others not of the LDS
faith in a heartbeat, because of the in-depth look into the eating
disorder." --Jaime Theler
"In "A Future for
Tomorrow," Haley bravely recounts her journey to the brink of death and
back again in a way that is both touching and inspiring.
The frankness with which Haley describes her journey is remarkable. She opens
her heart and mind to her readers because she feels called to let others know
how devastating anorexia nervosa can be."
