Prayer for Self Control with Food

Dear God,

Please help me gain self control over my desire for food. I do not want food to fill my empty emotional and physical void. Please help me to make healthier choices and turn away from foods that do not support positive health for this wonderful body you have given me.

Please help me to love myself as you love me and to take care of my body as you take care of me. Please help me to love myself for who I am and accept that I need your help to change my life. I pray that I can learn to love and respect my body so that I am healthy for myself and family.

Amen
