Truth, some people do overeat and they aren’t obese. Some people diet and eat healthy but still have junk in the trunk. I think it’s the reason why elders stay away from going after anybody on gluttony.

36Overweight Jehovah’s Witnesses
by minimus inwhat was your kingdom hall like when it came to overweight witnesses?
i remember counseling some people on their drinking habits.
a few snickered that if we were going to counsel them because they have had way too many at a wedding reception, what about very overweight witnesses that have a lifestyle of overindulgence?

I do think there are lots of people who really do not enjoy many other normal pleasures in the Organization so the one thing they look forward to is food.

Our presiding overseer was a guy who could eat! He wasn’t fast but he was always eating! He was in excellent condition and was a great guy but I guess his metabolism allowed him to eat more than anyone I knew and never gain weight. Whenever we went on shepherding calls, the Witness knew that in order to have a good visit, get the homemade apple pie out. Lol -

Did You Think The Majority of Elders Were “Qualified “?
by minimus inin my opinion, in a body of elders let’s say with 7 elders , 2 or 3 were pretty much on the ball.
they were reasonable, intelligent and moderate.
the others were either extremely extreme about everything or very liberal.. did you have qualified older men or were they all lousy to you?

Just getting your calculator out to figure what I do sounds obsessed. Not normal.

Me. I was really getting into your experience until you spoiled it by trying to turn your experience into anti right wing attack. Why don’t YOU stop talking about politics since it’s so disturbing to you and just comment on what doesn’t bother you?? If you insist in wading into these waters, I really don’t want to hear your constant whines.
Now if you care to finish your elder/ baby/ wife experience I’m all ears.
