My flesh is never satisfied when a plate is set before me. I could blame it on my mother's strict stance of being a member of the "clean plate club." I would be deceiving myself if I did that. That factor had no bearing on my life until a few years ago when I began to gain weight. Time to stand up and confess there is no excuse except my out-of-control appetite. "Pro 23:2 And put a knife to your throat, If you be a man given to appetite." Yikes! I don't think dieting as a discipline is as harsh. I accept my need to be moderate today.

wow i think i've missed that verse before - ouch! a good reminder though in this to all of us
