Comment: Thank you hdavidt for your comment, very intelligent response. The article is a good one, but I for one believe that we all really know what we should and shouln't eat, just sucks that everything that taste so good is bad for you, the way of the world I guess. Good health to everyone.

Comment: Not really a strange comment. Just another aggressive fundamentalist.

From the Sermon on the Mount:

Be careful not to make a show of your religion before men; if you do, no reward awaits you in your Father's house in heaven.

Comment: Good article. So many reasons we should keep our weight under control. It is neither spiritual nor godly to neglect our health. Self control is a fruit of the Holy Spirit. Overweight women tend to have very heavy menstrual cycles. They don't realize that losing 10 or more lbs. will significantly decrease blood loss, in most cases. Overweight men and women suffer from heart disease, diabetes, cancer, etc., significantly more often than those of normal weight. Women readily lose weight to attract a husband. Then, readily gain weight once they marry. What is that? We all need God to do any good thing. Just can't do it in our own strength. But, God will enable (not just help--enable) us, if we persevere in prayer, by His grace through faith in Him and in His Word.

  Comment: Well, God gave us square dancing and that helps us lose weight and stay in shape. My friend said some religions don't believe in dancing but she said her niece goes dancing with her husband and she figures if she can have sex with him, she can dance with him.
