PLEDGE

I AM AN INTELLIGENT PERSON.
I WILL CONTROL MY EMOTIONS AND NOT MY EMOTIONS CONTROL ME.
EVERY TIME I AM TEMPTED TO USE FOOD, TO SATISFY MY FRUSTRATED DESIRES, TO BUILD UP MY EGO OR DULL MY SENSES, I WILL REMEMBER -
EVEN THOUGH I OVEREAT IN PRIVATE, MY EXCESS WEIGHT IS THERE FOR ALL THE WORLD TO SEE.
