One needs great effort to cease the unmanageable desire for food. Therefore, improve your fighting skills to beat compulsive actions.

This fight is for freedom; refuse to fail. You can feel ardent emotions and choose not to give in. Order yourself, “I refuse to quit. I will not budge. I refuse to fall." During the emotional turmoil caused by allurement, inquire of yourself, “what do I really want?” Eating to unwind is not your goal. What you really want is to be at ease. You do not want to eat because of anger. You need to resolve the issue. Eating to feel secure is not what you want. You need to face it and conquer it. Eating in the place of boredom is not what you want. What you desire is, an objective that will initiate real action within you.

Avoid fighting with obsessive thoughts, but turn them into productive thoughts and actions. Schedule mini-breaks to shift your mood and break cycles of obsessive thinking. Spend a few minutes doing something pleasurable to alow the emotions to fade. Listen to music, get some exercise, take a brisk walk, or take up yoga. Not only will you be overcoming obsessive thoughts, but upgrading your life. Do not surrender; everytime you do, the enjoyment will spawn a craving to repeat it. Affirm to yourself that junk food is fake pleasure. If you do not nurture a craving, it will stop. If you become disturbed, inhale slowly and deeply, hold it for a second, and slowly release, relax.

Create the emotion of revulsion to the point of nausea: finger nails scratching a blackboard, or hair floating in your soup, Picture an image that suits you. Use negative tagging. Chips are flavored pieces of unhealthy oils and fats. Make up your own negative labels for the foods you are moving away from. Play the mental tape to the end; look at the whole picture. Don’t look only at the pleasure, but be aware of all the adverse effects.

When you focus yourself, you feel as though you had lost something, and feel betrayed. Fight that feeling with the fact that you have what you need to be happy. Challenge the emotion of loss.

Remember the bad qualities of junk food. Stop eating them. Steer away from triggers like fast food outlets and donut stores. Avoid hanging around unnecesarily in the kitchen or at the dinner table when you feel the urge to eat. Your meals must be planned. Snack on fruits and vegetables.

The toughest days are the first few. If you are out of it and feel weak, it will be difficult to discipline your thoughts. Managing direction requires work, and feeling toxic creates an irresponsible attitude. It will vanish once the blood clears of toxins. Give it your best through out these times to be firm.
