Beck Week 3 Day 19 STOP FOOLING YOURSELF
There is a list of reasons to eat on page 162 that are self-deluding sabotaging thoughts that you think to allow yourself permission to eat something. These are usually fooling yourself thoughts. You need to prepare yourself for these thoughts. Creating a “IT”S NOT OKAY” response card can be helpful to read when you are at risk for not following your plan. Every time you give in you are strengthening your giving-in muscle. Stick to your plan.
DON'T KID YOURSELF
* Sabotaging Thoughts are the little devil sitting on my shoulder whispering that it’s OK to eat when I shouldn’t
* The Thin Person may have Sabotaging Thoughts but can identify BS and choose to ignore it
* The Thin Person knows it is not OK to listen to nonsense
>> It’s NOT OK to eat spontaneously, off plan
>> It’s NOT OK to rationalize spontaneous eating
>> It’s NOT OK to make excuses for eating off plan
* Giving in to STs just weakens my resolve to remain a Thin Person
Sabotaging Thought: It’s OK to eat this because ....
>>> It’s NOT OK. If I truly believe this, I’m deluded.
>>> It’s NOT OK. This is b*llsh*t.
>>> It’s NOT OK. I need to break the habit of believing b*llsh*t.
Thank you, Lady/Carol for saying it so well!
