DAY SIX

Key Theme: LOVE

COMPASSION FOR YOURSELF, OTHERS

Once you understand obesity, you’ll begin to see how helpless people really are when they don’t understand it. If you don’t know what’s wrong, how can you fix it? And as we all know, the traditional diet “cure” has ironically been the cause of obesity for many people besides you and me. First, stop blaming yourself for getting fat. Next, resolve to forgive yourself for gorging, binging, starving, and gaining weight. That should be fairly easy since your efforts were made in good faith as you attempted to solve your weight problem. You didn’t understand, and you weren’t really in control. So forget it. Finally, think of all the people you’ve secretly judged for their poor self-control. Think of them now with understanding.

“It is surely better to pardon too much than to condemn to much.” George Eliot

Food for Thought: To understand is to gain compassion.
