Pack eating in poverty
has been part of most,
all peoples history.

An inherent component
in our genetic memories.

G.B. Shaw said, the cells
never forget!

The ravenous race to
appease appetites is
the primary cause of
obesity.

" Hunger comes with
  eating, thirst goes
  with drinking ".

There, in that statement,
lieth the problem and
solution.

If one out eats ones hunger,
ie, by competing against an
allocated time for consumption,
then, you have succeeded in
beating fortification with an
excess, of which, is both
unnecessary and uncomfortable.

At that point, we need to consider
what Shaw observed and take note,
that all addictions are accumulative.

I know, I am an alcoholic.

So, how does one take back control
of ones teenage weight?

First, we need to accept that food
depravation in a mild sense does not
cause harm, hunger is the - removed
from the +.

Less in intake and less in the speed
in which one consumes.

I am not going to write you a diet sheet,
this is futile, succeeding is achievable,
"providing" you never stop practicing.
