From "Devotions for Dieters," by H. Victor Kane

Table Graces for Dieters:

I thank thee, Lord, for daily food
Help me to eat just what I should;
Plenty there is for all my need;
Deliver me from hungry greed. Amen.

Accept my grateful thanks, O Lord,
For wholesome food upon this board;
I promise not to sit and stuff,
But stop when I have had enough! Amen.

O God, accept my thanks for health,
Above all else, the truest wealth;
Help me to guard it day by day
By eating in a prudent way. Amen.

Thanks be to God for food to choose,
And for the courage to refuse;
Show me that I'm the one I cheat
When I give in and overeat. Amen.

For food thou dost bestow on me
My gratitude increase,
But may it's weight not grow on me
Till I become obese. Amen.

Give to us now such daily food
As may the body's life prolong,
That what we eat be for our good
And keep the inner spirit strong. Amen.

Reminders For Your Table:

Obesity: a penalty for exceeding the feed limit!

It's when you're on a diet that the SECONDS count!

If you eat as if there's no tomorrow, there won't be!

TWO MINUTES in the mouth; TWO HOURS in the stomach; FOREVER on the hips!

The thin rats bury the fat rats!

DON'T put off until tomorrow what you should take off today!

The longer your WAISTLINE, the shorter your LIFELINE!

He who indulges is bound to have bulges!

Those who can't count calories have the figures to prove it!

Some folks grow up and spread joy and happiness; Others just grow up and S-P-R-E-A-D!

Insight and foresight are good for you, but a little behind sight would help some, too!

OBESITY: an easy way to an early obituary!

SUGGESTION: MAKE PLACE CARDS WITH THESE REMINDERS ON THEM AND PUT THEM IN FRONT OF YOU WHEN YOU SIT DOWN AT THE TABLE.
