The Diet Logs

Christian books are the largest segment of the publishng industry these days, and I guess dieters just had to jump on that bandwagon. That’s O.K. with me–jumping on bandwagons must be good exercise, too! So, the latest in weight loss support are Christian diet groups, or “pray your weight down”, as I would call it. They prefer catchier titles like “God’s Weigh”, and “What Would Jesus Eat?” (that’s a book) as reported:

A recent God’s Weigh meeting opened with prayer, but the worksheets and advice could have been torn from the pages of a secular weight loss workbook. The members talked about the importance of exercise and emotional triggers that lead to eating, such as boredom, stress and disappointment.

Another similar group is called “True Satisfaction”:

The group addresses a variety of unhealthy eating habits ranging from anorexia to overeating. Wendi Jennings, who is a co-facilitator for the five-member group, said they use a 12-step program based in Scripture to help people overcome unhealthy eating habits.
