NOVENA TO
STOP EATING TOO MUCH.


Repeat the following Novena prayers every day for 9 consecutive days.


Behold me, O my God, at thy feet!
I, a sinner, do not deserve mercy,
but, O my Redeemer,
the blood which Thou hast shed for me
encourages me and obliges me to hope for it.
How often have I offended Thee in all kinds of ways,
and also have mercy on me
with my tendency to eat too much,
of which I have repented time and time again,
only to find that I am yet again eating
and snacking too much.
O my God, I do not want to give in to Gluttony;
I wish to amend,
and in order to be faithful to Thee,
I will, instead of eating for comfort
or excessive pleasure,
place all my confidence in Thee.
I will, whenever I am tempted,
instantly have recourse to Thee.
Hitherto, I have trusted in my own promises and resolutions
and have neglected to recommend myself
to Thee in my temptations.
This has been the cause of my repeated failures.
From this day forward, be Thou, O Lord, my strength,
and thus shall I be able to do all things,
for “I can do all things in Him who strengtheneth me”.

Amen.
