Weight Issues.
October 26, 2008
I hate it.
I just can’t stop eating.
Damn. 🙁
I’m just thankful that my friends don’t comment on my weight. Coz you know, I have weight issues. Haay.
I was actually organizing my closet for days now… You know like throw everything out then put everything back in… in proper order: by color, by length, etc. etc. And I just realized that I have so many clothes that I couldn’t wear anymore simply because I’ve gotten too big. 🙁
*sigh*
This is just so depressing.
And I hate it when some people rub it in. I just hate hate it.
So now, I’m going on a diet.
A real one with God’s help. 🙂

Hi Monique :)I noticed your blog and i cant help myself to say something. You need to know this. you know what, i am also dealing with the same issue, and i believe reading your blog its not merely an accident. I dont know what you're undergoing right now, but the only solution to this is Change, which i totally agree with you. The whole process of change is the manifestation of how we follow God. I've read a book Thin Within, a Biblical approach to Diets, Eating Disorder and Depression. and booom, it obviously pointed out reasons why we do it, why we cling to food, why we can't control our eating habits, why we always think we're not beautiful enough and other reasons that really put me into tears and just knelt down before Him. Why do we cling to food and overeat? Because the insatiable cravings that we have? God created us with the heart that has its own innermost desires within it. However, we as humans, we have emotions and feelings, we unconsciously misplace our wholeness to other people. God says to us that He has come to give life to the full right? but where does our satisfaction come from? to persons, to shopping, to TVs, smoking, alcoholism and yeah Food. They say, Addiction is something that we extremely do or like which we cant control or in which we spend most of our time with. And why do we turn to these things? because of emptiness, there's a deep hole inside our hearts that we intentionally covered for the longest time in our lives. we all have our insecurities, that's why we feel so depressed, because we're not secure of how we look, how others look and even think of us. why are we feeling such incompleteness? yet we, we keep on hiding them always, like forever but God is actually exposing them.. making it obvious coz He wants us to realize that He wants us to be made complete and He is the only one who can do it. I'm not talking here to look as highly or righteous and some religious act here. It's hard, painful, and yes, a lot of times i feel, why can't i eat the normal way??! but hey, God is only a prayer away right? and i know you do believe that His grace is limitless and He generously gives His mercy.. God is still at work on me.. everyday, when i see food, "oh no, this would get me fat!" thinking is changing into, "thank God this is Your Grace". We can never do something to make God love us more. and even our mistakes, our sins, it wouldn't make His love for us less. Remember David what he said about ourselves? that We are Fearfully and Wonderfully made. Bonggang bongga huh? :)I believe in everything that's happening in our lives, God always has its reasons. maybe it is something that only the two of you should know? Jesus also said, Come to me all who are weary, and I will give you rest"I believe God called me to be Victorious over my trials and challenges in my life coz I have Him whose bigger than everything.. You are too Monique.. 🙂 Bless God and He will surely bless you more. Take care 🙂

heeey… shouldn't i be the one to complain about this issue? haha. but yes it's really irritating. aside from not being able to wear ur old clothes, it's harder to buy one that u really like the most! it doesn't fit u & what's worse is when it does ur tummy & others bulk up. sheeesh!!!
