The Devil Made Me Eat That! C M Fleming

Publisher Marketing: Mother Teresa meets Erma Bombeck. "The Devil Made Me Eat That!" is an honest account of what I believe the Bible says about gluttony and its consequences, told with humor by someone who has, and is, fighting this sin battle. With a little help we can change. More than sixty percent of Americans are overweight. According to The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, obesity is a problem that affects over one third of the American population. Seventeen percent of this number is comprised of children aged two to nineteen years of age. Eleven percent of those children are morbidly obese. In the past three decades, the number of obese Americans has more than doubled, most dramatically in children. The list of health problems associated with obesity is staggering. Rather than admit to a food addiction, many look for a magic bullet. New "miracles" are touted daily. Take this pill and melt fat away while you sleep. Eat this berry and you will have boundless energy, plus you will lose weight effortlessly. Buy this belt and vibrate your fat away while you watch TV. Hah! There are drawbacks with these "miracles." One: they are expensive. Two: they don't work. And three: many are dangerous to your health.
