Cheating Yourself, Seriously?!

So, I need to lose about 50 pounds. I enrolled in a weight lose program directed by a physician. I am enjoying the process and the nurses are nice. I am on a 1200 calorie a day meal plan. The first week was difficult, but I am learning how to mix and measure the six meals I eat a day.
This process got me to thinking about cheating. I was given a wealth of material to teach me how and what to eat and one day I thought, I'll just have this one cookie, it can't hurt. Then I thought, if I cheat at the diet I chose, what does that say about me?  I would only be cheating myself.
If you cheat yourself no one else has a chance. Why would You cheat YOU? Ridiculous right? Well I am sure people do it everyday.

• Ever play solitaire with cards, real cards, not the computer, if you cheated, you cheated yourself, it's called solitaire.
• Ever looked on someone else's paper while taking a test, that's an answer you could have known yourself and one that may keep from getting something you need, like a job, you cheated yourself.
• Ever skip a class when you were in school? Learning continued, but you missed out, you cheated yourself.

If it's that easy for you to deceive the  person that is you, then question your integrity and relationships.
At the end of the day, when all is said and done, our integrity  and name is all we have. When the obituary is written and your name is signed to the roll, will the comments be, that person could never be trusted or what a good and faithful servant.
