What If People Notice Me?

Do you like to fade into the background? Does ‘notice me’ make you feel really self-conscious? Maybe you panic or get anxious if the spotlight is on you? They are somehow giving off the signal, “Don’t notice me.

If this applies to you, it could be the reason you keep on those extra pounds. Most of my clients believe that no one notices a heavy person. It guarantees a certain degree of invisibility.

Here’s a script you can use to work it out. If you’ve never tapped before, please  go to Quick Start Guide first and find out how to tap.

Give this challenge a SUD level: How strong is your need to have extra fat on your body to go unnoticed? Then let’s start tapping at the karate chop point.

Even though I like being heavier because no one notices me, I deeply and completely love and accept myself.

Even though I’m afraid to have the spotlight on me, I deeply and completely love and accept myself.

Even though I feel more comfortable being heavier, I accept who I am and how I feel.

Top of Head: This extra layer of fat keeps me unnoticed.

Inside the Eye: No one pays attention to a heavy person.

Outside the Eye: Not much is expected of a heavy person.

Under the Eye: It’s easier to function with these extra pounds.

Under the Nose: Don’t notice me.

Under the Mouth: I don’t want to look too attractive because people will notice me more.

Collarbone: I’d rather fade into the background.

Underarm: Life will get more challenging if I’m slimmer.

Top of Head: I’d rather stay in my comfort zone.

Inside the Eye: I grew up believing I shouldn’t draw attention to myself.

Outside the Eye: I’m scared to come out of this protective shell.

Under the Eye: It’s easier to keep gaining and losing weight than to deal with this discomfort.

Under the Nose: That’s why I sabotage myself when I start to lose weight.

Under the Mouth: It’s comfortable to just be left alone.

Underarm: Being thin just isn’t safe or easy.

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’m feeling less threatened being in a slim body.

Inside the Eye: It might even be fun.

Outside the Eye: I’d like to look great and feel good about myself.

Under the Eye: Thin people really don’t seem more taxed than anyone else.

Under the Nose: I’d rather be noticed than keep up this old pattern.

Under the Mouth: This extra weight is sapping all my energy and self-confidence.

Collarbone: It’s time to deal with this challenge.

Underarm: And I’m ready!
