AFFIRMATIONS

FOR COMPULSIVE OVEREATERS


  1. My worth as a person is not diminished in any way by my body size or by my eating patterns.
     
  2. I will LOVE myself no matter what my eating patterns are.
     
  3. I will judge my days not by what or how much I eat, but by the accomplishments I have made and the love I have given.
     
  4. My life is a gift, and I will not let my enjoyment of it be diminished by feeling guilty over my body size or how much I eat.
     
  5. I am finished blaming others, situations or myself for the way I eat. I will take action minute-by-minute, hour-by-hour, and day-by-day until I can eat normally again.
     
  6. Compulsive overeating is a temporary condition in my life.
     
  7. There is a normal eater within me; I will let him/her take over my life more and more, each day, as I am ready.
     
  8. I can imagine a life without being a compulsive overeater.
     
  9. When I feel stressed, I will close my eyes and picture how my all-powerful normal eater would handle the situation.
     
  10. I believe I will be a normal eater again. I know I will be a normal eater again.
