  1. First, write down your current reality…where you are right now in your body and mind.  Then look ahead to where you want to be in your body and mind… more energy, eating healthy, feeling great, metabolically fit?  Write it down in your journal.
  2. Examine and challenge your basic beliefs about foods that are holding you back from getting down to your desired weight and health.
  3. Redefine yourself as someone who eats healthy and exercises regularly.  Imagine a “new you” and begin to “be” that person.
  4. Stop using foods for non-nutrient purposes and learn other ways to cope with stress.
  5. Allow yourself to grieve over the loss of your unhealthy eating habits and then let it go!
  6. Eat only at planned meal times and planned snack times.
  7. Don’t focus on the scale and start focusing on healthy behaviour and lifestyle.
  8. Let go of the “I wish I were thinner” comments and work to make you the best you can be.  No comparing allowed!
  9. Write down your goals for where you want to be in 3 months, 6 months, and 1 year.  Keep a daily journal.
