Pope Shenouda III

Nevertheless, his own body, which dominated over him, defeated him.
Man went on committing several other bodily sins, one after the other, until he was condemned to walk after the flesh and not the spirit. (Rom 8:1).
Then the Lord Jesus Christ came to restore man to his initial status.
Since man had erred into the sin of eating the forbidden fruit by obeying his body, Christ's first triumph over temptation addressed this particular point, to overcome the desire for food in general and over that which was legitimate.
