I have posted before about being overweight and let me tell you that being overweight sucks. I am currently about 50-60 pounds overweight and have been trying, but honestly I am not sure what to do anymore.
I have tried low carb, eating more veggies, eating like King then Prince the Pauper, reducing the caloric intake, etc. I have now cut out all sugar as a starting point and trying to take any meals I purchase extend them into two or three meals. The portion sizes we get these days are insane as well as the amount of sugar, soy, fat, carbs, and salt.
Philippians 3:19 New International Version (NIV)
19 Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach, and their glory is in their shame. Their mind is set on earthly things.
If you are having problems with your weight, then I suggest that you pray to God for help. I know this is what I will be doing.
Lord I am asking for your help to guide me into knowing what I am doing wrong that is causing me to be obese. My stomach is not my god. I know it may appear that way due to my size, but it is not. Help me to make better food choices that you approve of and to eat only enough food to make me healthy. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
