Mind
- I accept that my eating and weight concerns are creating emotional distress, discomfort, and suffering in my life.
- I choose to accept my body and weight as they are at this moment.
- Committing to accepting myself is a choice only I can make.
Body
- I accept that body obsession clouds my awareness and thinking.
- I accept that my genetic inheritance strongly influences my body shape and weight.
- I accept how important it is for me to eat mindfully in order to live a healthy life.
Thoughts
- To accept my body and weight does not mean that I am judging them to be perfect.
- Acceptance only comes from within myself.
- I can’t seek it from the outside.
Feelings
- I accept that my worth is not reflected in my weight and shape, but, rather, my worth is determined by who I am as a whole person.
- Acceptance includes rejecting the cultural pressure to be perfect.
