Solution

Use the following statements to enforce the right messages:• I accept myself as lovable and I am filled and nourished by things other than food.

• I am unique and lovable. I love my body, I treat it with respect.

• I eat in a way that nourishes my body and makes me feel and look great.

• I am unique. I don’t need to compete with or compare myself to anyone.

• I matter as a person.

Particularly with habitual and emotional eating, there is also the issue that for many of us food equates to love. I had a wonderful grandmother who absolutely loved me but showed me that love through food. The minute I walked in her door she would get out the cake tin and offer me all kinds of goodies that she had bought or baked just for me. As a child I was delighted by this, as a twenty-year-old trying to control my weight I refused them and she was very hurt and offended. She took my refusal personally. I soon noticed that the instant I entered her door I wanted to eat cakes. If she wasn’t home I would help myself from the same tin. Even if I had had a full meal beforehand I still wanted them. I had built an association with her house and food that was very strong. I had an issue with food for years partly through being loved with food. It is not an exaggeration to say it ran my life and I am so happy that it no longer does.
