Faith-Based Diet Puts God Before Food
Weigh Down Workshop Touted, Criticized
UPDATED: 3:52 pm EST January 22, 2008
FRANKLIN, Tenn. -- Wouldn't it be nice to lose lots of weight without
even trying?
Some middle Tennesseans say they've done it with the help of what's
called the Weigh Down Workshop, WSMV-TV in Nashville reported
While it works in some cases, the method of the workshop has made some
question whether it is healthy.
Gwen Shamblin, a former dietician turned weight-loss guru, founded the
Weigh Down Workshop on a simple premise in 1986: Let God tell you when
you're hungry and when to stop eating.
"You've tried many things, but the answer is in turning to God,"
Shamblin says on an introductory DVD.
On the DVD, Shamblin tells followers to turn their love of food into a
love of God and the weight will fall off.
"Changing the food's content, dieting and changing your energy output,
exercising has not worked," she said.
In recent months, the Weigh Down Workshop, based in Franklin, has been
featured on everything from "The Tyra Banks Show" to Ladies Home Journal.
Program participants Maggie and Andy Sorrells are poster children for
the program. They lost a combined 500 pounds.
"I laid in my bed with chest pains. I thought, 'I'm going to die,'" said
Maggie Sorrells.
The couple have told their story on shows such as "The Today Show" and
"Inside Edition" and in People magazine.
"I just thought I was going to be the big guy my whole life," said Andy
Sorrells.
The drastic change in the Sorrells began in 2001, when they met on the
Internet and tied the knot.
"Everybody said when you get married, you gain weight. We could not gain
any more weight. We had to go the opposite direction," Maggie Sorrells
said.
The couple initially tipped the scales at nearly 1,000 pounds combined,
then began shedding their weight at a high rate.
"It's definitely all about praying and focusing on God and not on the
food," said Andy Sorrells.
But critics said the diet is a glorified form of starvation that
encourages people to eat only when their stomach growls or when they're
on the verge of passing out.
"I know people who've eaten five bites a meal and two meals a day," said
one critic who wished to remain anonymous for fear of retribution.
She was a Weigh Down Workshop counselor for more than a decade and said
most participants refrain from eating out of guilt.
"You feel like you're being watched if you eat, and you're frequently
weighed in front of leaders to see if you're losing or not," she said.
Shamblin often refers to other religions as counterfeit, using weight as
a means of identifying unconfessed sin.
Those who are successful at the Weigh Down Workshop are often recruited
to Remnant Fellowship Church, Shamblin's Frankin-based church that turns
the principals of the workshop into a whole new religion.
"I would say it is a cult that employs mind control and brainwashing and
is used to control a group of people to get them to do what you think
they should do," the critic said.
Many though, like the Sorrells, said they're healthier now as a result
of the workshop.
When asked if they think Shamblin is a prophet, Maggie Sorrells said, "I
think what she's told through the Weigh Down Workshop has changed our
lives, prophet in the sense of pointing us back to God, definitely."
However, the critic said, "There are Internet chat rooms filled with
quote, 'survivors,' people who say they're lucky to have made it out of
Remnant with their sanity intact. I think the scariest part is that the
members don't realize that they're being controlled, that they are under
really mind control in this day and age."
A woman in California said she developed bulimia after participating in
the Weigh Down Workshop and said she knew lots of others who had
developed severe eating disorders as well, fearing that if they gained
weight it could somehow affect their ability to go to heaven.
Shamblin initially agreed to be interviewed, but later canceled when she
learned the types of questions she would be asked, the television
station reported.
A church leader said allegations of mind control at Remnant Fellowship
Church are outlandish, and she encouraged curious people to visit the
church.

Faith-Based Diet Puts God Before Food
Of all the terrible tie-ins religious people have come
up with, this is one of the most abominable.
I picture some unhappy woman who for whatever reasons
has not been able to lose weight, and who will now
have to bear the additional burden of religious guilt
when this diet plan fails her. She'll worry that she's
not been a good enough Christian. She'll fret that
she's betrayed her fellow dieters. And what does a
person with this kind of eating disorder do when she
feels stressed and guilty? She eats more.
Preacher pointing at the unfortunate woman:
"You're fat because you're a sinner and going to Hell!"
You should start an evangelist TV show!
Call it "Exorcise with Exercise"!
Mmmm... I know a film producer in Illinois.
(I am his principal video technical advisor, and have produced the
occasional musical score for his company)
Are you serious?
We could make a heap of money out of your idea.
Let's do lunch sometime!
50/50/50?

FRANKLIN, Tenn. -- Wouldn't it be nice to lose lots of weight without
even trying?
I have a PDF that I downloaded from the USDA site last year about how
black churches can get their parishioners to eat more sensibly by using
religion. I couldn't find it online just now, so I guess they finally
took it down.

Some time ago, I saw a book advocating a 'biblical diet'. It was light
on meats, but heavy on grains, legumes, and fruit. Probably similar to
what people in the Middle East eat today. Forgetting the bible nonsense,
it was probably not all that unhealthy.

Faith-Based Diet Puts God Before Food
Weigh Down Workshop Touted, Criticized
UPDATED: 3:52 pm EST January 22, 2008
FRANKLIN, Tenn. -- Wouldn't it be nice to lose lots of
weight
without
even trying?
I have a PDF that I downloaded from the USDA site last year
about
how
black churches can get their parishioners to eat more sensibly
by
using
religion. I couldn't find it online just now, so I guess they
finally
took it down.
Some time ago, I saw a book advocating a 'biblical diet'. It was
light
on meats, but heavy on grains, legumes, and fruit. Probably
similar
to
what people in the Middle East eat today. Forgetting the bible
nonsense,
it was probably not all that unhealthy.
Widout de ham and shellfish, already?
Tell me: true, it is not!
Oy vey, were are de greens?
Vidout dem, you ain't nuttin' but a meshuggener.
I would imagine they had greens too. If they had meat it was
probably
lamb or mutton.
Jesus! Do I love Lamb of God, or what?!!
I'll have to remember that next time that I'm out and someone serves
lamb, I'll exclaim "Jesus chops"!
Yes, he does!
He was a carpenter, you know.
But not anorexic.
He chopped? Maybe he was a lumberjack. :-)
<Wanders off whistling:
"If I had a hammer sandwich,
I nibble in the evening">
I don't have any hammers but here are some nails to put on your bread.
Ppht! I hate your nail clippings going everywhere.
Do it in the bathroom!
What? You don't like keratin? It's good for you. It's protein!
No, no, no, no!
If you don'ts improve yer aim bah a fortnight, you won't win the
famous "Toenail Tiddlywinks" championship in the Huntsville Alabama
Christadelphian Memorial Ice-rink in February 29th this year!
Here. Try to get them in this here empty beer can from 5 yards.
Hay'all, I seen you done it at the party just last week!
You'all only got 9 left.
Make'em count.
Oh. So that's what happened to the tenth.
