"I am the vine and ye are the branches; He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit; for without me, ye can do nothing." ~ St. John 15:5Christian Socials & Diet Damage
If you belong to a typical church, there's always a function in progress. Whether it's planning an Easter Sunrise Service or a food drive for the needy, it's just about a given that food will be involved in some form, shape or fashion. You may have loved Sister Earla's chocolate chip cookies last month, but this month, you're on a diet. And she's expecting you to eat at least two, because after all, she baked them just for you since you were so fond of them at the last social... There are several ways to avoid weight gain at church functions, but few ways in which people's feelings won't be injured and in which won't have you cornered.
Here are just a few suggestions:
- Make it known that you are watching your waistline.
- Bring a few healthy dishes to the event that
you can enjoy without feeling guilty or blowing your diet plan.
- Invite Sister Earla to sample your goodies
as you let her in on your low fat, low calorie secrets. The
trick is to hit her first.
-Accept other goodies, but only take a nibble
or two.
- If you accidentally slip off the Diet Wagon,
don't worry. Another church function is right around the
corner and you can try again!
