Deceitful Meat

Read Proverbs 22-24

Proverbs 23:3 "Be not desirous of his dainties: for they are deceitful meat."

When we began our weight-loss program, we might have kept it to ourselves. But once we lost enough weight to make a difference, people noticed and we told them what we were doing.

We did this, hoping our friends and family would support us and our efforts. We wanted them to rejoice with us when we had something to rejoice about and commiserate with us when things weren’t going well and maybe even give us a pep talk when we got discouraged and were ready to quit.

Unfortunately, not everyone is happy for our success. We have to be wary of those who might say they are rooting for us while serving the deceitful meat of high calorie, high fat, high carbohydrate foods disguised as diet-friendly dishes.
