I become greedy in front of lots of food, that's why I get so heavy now.Once I had afternoon tea with my friends, they did the talking and laughing but hardly ate some food such as pizza or cream soup. Unlike them, I grabbed a handful, and ate almost half of their food.(Everyone ordered their own food, but they agreed me to have their food because I looked so hungry.) After having the food, I went home and found my belly aching. I have to eat some pills which were so bitter and acid so that the food could be digested.

 

Although my greed of food caused a small or harmless result, I learnt to be reserved since then.
