Sabotaging Thought: I’m in such a good mood, it’s okay to have a treat to keep my good mood going.
Response: While having a treat might feel good right now, when I get on the scale see that I’ve gained weight it definitely won’t feel good. I need to remember that staying on track with my eating, especially when I’m giving myself a lot of credit for doing so, feels great. So although eating a treat might be one temporary way of keeping my good mood going, staying on track and feeling SO GOOD about my eating is another, much more longer-lasting way to keep feeling good.
