Learning to Sense God’s Lead

How are we going to approach the food once we do get the green light or feel this hunger? The first thing you do is you think and pray and start looking for answers from within. Ask yourself, “What do I really want to eat?” Put an end to dieting by making sure you are eating regular foods that your body is calling for so that you can end head hunger (dreaming about and planning out the food).

As you are learning to eat regular foods, consider starting with a smaller plate, just as a helpful tool, and slow down with prayer as you approach the meal. In Weigh Down, you must learn to slow down your eating for two reasons:

1. You will be able to taste each bite instead of inhaling it; you can savor the quality instead of quantity.
2. You remain in much better control and can detect fullness better when you eat more slowly.
