OBESITY -- THE ULTIMATE SOLUTION

OBESITY / OVER WEIGHT / EATING DISORDER
THE ULTIMATE SOLUTION
BY DR. MERVYN ABREO



          Hogging, comfort food and love all go hand in hand.




          And therefore, to handle food problems, first tackle love problems.


 CAUSE FOR OVER EATING
                                    
           When a baby is closely held and breast fed, it associates love with food. And so when one grows up, and is anxious, depressed or lonely, that person compensates for the love he or she needs by overeating, or going into the arms of a lover.

               Breast feeding is one of the most important 'investments' in  the production of healthy children.


           We Christians have a loving God and Father. And He can fill any void in us, however deep it is.

MY OWN PREDICAMENT


          There was this one person in our prayer group that I just couldn’t love. I prayed about it, but just couldn't forgive this person. And what was even worse was that the Lord had told me that He had not only forgiven that person, but that He loves the person.
          It took me a long time, but ultimately I not only forgave, but also was able to love that person…………….THAT PERSON WAS ME!

          So, with Jesus loving us, and we loving ourselves, we can obtain more than enough love to overcome our required quota.


PS: It helps to write down Scripture versus stating who we are in Christ, how much He loves us and values us. Memorizing them and, not only repeating them to ourselves on a daily basis, but most important of all, believing them.
          Lord Jesus has said: “Love your neighbor as yourself” (Mt. 19:19).
          So forgive and love everyone, starting with yourself. Here ‘love’ is an action word (a verb).
          So act on it!
(Please read: ‘Would Jesus have died for just one person.’)
         And so, with God’s love alive in your heart, your emotional needs will be met and your psychological problems will gradually disappear.
