Negative talk takes so many forms. I have found that denying myself things makes me want them all the more. Well, no real suprise there.
"You can't have that. It's fattening. It's unhealthy. It's not practical. It's not on sale. It's not part of the vision of our world."
Instead of obsessing anout what I can not have and talking myself out of things, I am telling myself throughout the day, "You can have whatever you want."
Over the last week, I have thought less about food. If I found I had a craving for something, I told myself, without guilt, that I could have it. I even went out and bought it a couple of times but never ate it. Or, more often, my mind moved on to something else that wasn't food related.
And I am much more relaxed.

I'm going to try that! Thanks!
This really seems to be working. Between walking and this, I have lost an easy but firm ten pounds. And I'm not food nuts.
