Food vs. Mind vs. Demon
Aug 28, 2014
Obesity is a condition. Some are diagnosed early in life, some late in life. Some defeat it and some can't. People say "I suffer from Obesity", "i will never change" "i was born this way"...well guess what? cancer patients suffer from cancer as well, sick adults and children suffer from incurable diseases. Obesity is a choice. A lifestyle for some. Don't you think those with cancer or other diseases wish they could have the chance to change their disease? Don't you think they wish there is an easy surgery to heal them?
Obesity is the minds worst poison.. It is so easy to turn to food because food tastes good, goes good with socializing and overall makes us happy.Hell it is even served at funerals and sad situations because food is comfort. Everyone finds comfort in food whether it's healthy or not. Food is comfort, food leads to obesity.I haven't met one person who has hated food. It is easier to stuff your face than go to the gym.
I look at my obesity as an inner demon. It has poisoned my mind and consumed me. I went from athletic and "society's normal" to obese, back to "normal" and now obese again. And I even had the lap band! BUT it's the mind that controls our actions, and when your mind has been possessed by the obese demon, you feel stuck, lost, miserable, lonely, scared and ashamed.
you tell yourself over and over again "diet starts tomorrow". "tomorrow is the day I do this seriously". "Today is a new day", etc, etc and get all motivated to get healthy and fit, then the second you look at food or feel hungry, that tiny little obese demon comes out and says "Whats one more bite of that cheeseburger?", "whats one more fry?" or for some it's "ive consumed 500 calories that means I have 1200 more to consume,so let me stuff my face to i can meet my daily quota". IT HAPPENS TO ME ALL THE TIME!!!!!!
Instead of giving into this demon that only brings me down and makes me feel like a miserable failure, I need to DEFEAT the s.o.b. and CHANGE my ways! I CAN do this, I CAN change. Obesity is curable and it's something I no longer want part of.
Obesity demon controls your mind, your mind controls your actions. Time to stop it. God has blessed us with technology and ways to overcome our obese lifestyles. He made man who then invented weightloss surgeries, protein shakes, health foods, etc. So STOP letting your inner demon control you. It's so much easier said than done, I still struggle with it. But the demon wants us to fail, we confess to ourselves and make ourselves believe we are fat and worthless. NO NO NO we are so much more than that! and with the proper guidance we can defeat this demon together!!
Obesity is a choice and it is curable. We are lucky that obesity is our only disease. You may have diabetes, well when you defeat the the inner demon, you will be healed (so to say), if you have cancer or other disease on top of obesity, FIGHT obesity so you can live longer and happier!!
We don't need fries, burgers and shakes. We need protein, vitamins and other health intakes so we can live a long, healthy and happy life for ourselves and our loved ones. It is our time to break free from these chains and kick this obesity demon to the curb! No more mind poisoning, no more lost hope, no more giving in, no more failing, no more defeat against us. Your never going to reach your goals if you keep giving in and giving up.
