Affirmations For Weight Loss

article written on the 11th of May 2007 by Lee Nutter

Question: I see that there is a category for weight loss affirmations. I found this website from a patient in an eating disorders treatment program specifically designed for those of suffering from either anorexia or bulimia but also treats patients who are compulsive overeaters requiring weight loss.

My question is how appropriate would it be to post positive affirmations regarding weight gain especially for the suffers of the fear of weight gain type disorders and will go to all costs to reduce weight and of course here I am generally speaking of anorexia and bulimia and bulimiarexia.

My Response: it would be appropriate to put affirmations regarding weight gain on bmindful, but a suggestion is that you use affirmations that can work with both overweight and underweight people.

I maintain a healthy weight I eat healthy and nutritious foods I am fit and healthy Every day I get closer to my ideal weight

These are a few I have come up with, they may or may not be on the web site, feel free to add them if they are not. There may be more specific affirmations that are more appropriate for your patients to use, if that is the case feel free to add them to bmindful. Not all of the affirmations on there are suitable for everyone, but at least they are there if people need them.
