Sabotaging Thought: I’m going to eat whatever I feel like right now because I don’t want to think about dieting.
Response: Actually, the only thing I’ll be doing is postponing when I’ll think about dieting because if I go off track now, guaranteed I’ll spend a lot of time thinking and feeling bad about it later. So either I think about it now, stay on track, and feel great, or I get off track, think about it later, and feel badly. Either way I’ll think about it.
