How To Lose Weight By Paying Attention

Do you find yourself paying attention when you eat? Or, is your mind on something else? Is a box of cookies or a bag of chips gone before you even realize what you did? Do you wonder where all the food on your plate went to in such a short time?  If so, here’s a script to tap on.

If you’ve never tapped before, please download my Quick Start Guide first and find out how to tap. Just go to: www.MakingWeightLossEasy.com

 

Give this challenge a SUD level: How easy is it for you to eat while your mind is on something else? Then let’s start tapping at the karate chop point.

 

Even though I often eat without paying attention to the food, I deeply and completely love and accept myself.

Even though I can eat a lot while my mind is elsewhere, I deeply and completely love and accept myself.

Even though it’s hard for me to be present while I’m eating, I accept who I am and how I feel.

 

Top of Head: I often eat without paying any attention.

Inside the Eye: I don’t do much chewing.

Outside the Eye: I inhale my food.

Under the Eye: I wonder where all the food went.

Under the Nose: I rarely enjoy the smells, colors, textures, and tastes of the food I’m eating.

Under the Mouth: It’s so hard for me to pay attention while I eat.

Collarbone: My mind is on more important things.

Underarm: Eating isn’t that important.

Top of Head: I don’t really enjoy my food.

Inside the Eye: But I sure am sorry when I see what I’ve eaten.

Outside the Eye: It’s my habit to eat while my mind is elsewhere.

Under the Eye: I’m using food to push down my emotions.

Under the Nose: It’s not really about nourishing myself.

Under the Mouth: It’s amazing how much I can eat without even realizing it.

Underarm: If I paid attention, maybe I’d enjoy my food more and eat less. Maybe I wouldn’t  even put some foods in my mouth if I were paying attention.

 

KEEP TAPPING THE SAME THING FOR SEVERAL ROUNDS. WHEN YOUR SUD LEVEL HAS DROPPED AND YOU ARE FEELING BETTER ABOUT THIS CHALLENGE, THEN GO ON TO THE FOLLOWING SEQUENCE.

 

Top of Head: I’d like to eat with more awareness.

Inside the Eye: I choose to change this habit pattern.

Outside the Eye: What would my eating be like if I stayed in the present moment?

Under the Eye: I’d learn about myself if I paid more attention.

Under the Nose: Maybe I’d even get to the root of this whole eating/weight challenge.

Under the Mouth: It might not be easy to switch this pattern.

Collarbone: But I’m willing to give it a try.

Underarm: I want to see the connection between my food choices, eating habits, and thoughts/feelings. It would be awesome to eat like a naturally slim person.

Also write down whatever comes up for you when you tap, and also tap on that.
