Examine your motivation to control your eating.

When you are controlling your eating it is important to examine your motivation.  You have to be careful that you are not trading one physical attraction for another, overeating for looking good.  You should have the following 2 motivations:
1) To be healthy
2) To learn spiritual self control.
