Right now I feel weaker than ever before.
Now I have no more faith in the strength of my own will. Regardless of the tricks I try to play upon my body to achieve the desired result of thinness...such as packing small lunches, restricting portions, and drinking lots of coffee...the natural mechanisms that God created in the body always win in the end. The survival drive is strong.
Dieting, like so many aspects of modern society, isn't natural or healthy.
Intentional starvation is a sin just as grievous as gluttony, and causes as much harm; please, God, help me have the virtue of contentment.
Honestly, I am afraid. Giving full control to God is frightening. Yet I hope to have the peace that arises from relinquishing control and giving all aspects of my life to Him.
