Day #36- Believe It.

It's not just a fluke that I'm losing weight. It won't come back overnight. This is because I am now using cognitive therapy tools which work.

Some of the things I've learned:

• I can leave food on my plate and not feel bad
• I can feel hungry and not be stressed about it
• I can say to myself that I don't have a choice if I want the result I want
• Exercise is a priority
• I refrain from spontaneous eating
• I eat slowly
• I eat sitting down
• I recognize and know how to respond to my sabotaging thoughts
• I give myself credit for the things I do right
• I know how to eat out without overdoing it
• I know how to get back on track
• I know the advantages of losing weight are higher than the advantages of eating the wrong things

Once I believe that I've lost weight due to my own efforts, dieting will be easier.
