Sabotaging Thought: I can’t throw away this leftover holiday food, it would be a waste of food and money.

Response: If I eat food my body doesn’t need, it will be wasted in my body by turning to fat. Wasted in the trashcan or in my body, either way it’s wasted. Also, the money is already gone, eating the food won’t bring the money back, but what it may do is cause me to gain weight.
