Chris talks about affirmations in his book The Spark, so I came up with one that's currently working for me: "I am enough, My life is complete, I have all I need." If all those things are true, I don't need to eat more, buy more, fix more. I'm not defective. I'm doing this because I want to be healthy and live happy.
Treat your new lifestyle like a new boyfriend don't cheat and if you cheat don't cry make amends with yourself and get on the right track. Don't make excuses for over eating and cheating be truthful to yourself and you new lifestyle.. Both you and your new life will live Happy Ever After.
