More Truths for Truth Cards
If you need more truths about 0 and 5 eating—or NOT eating 0 to 5—here are some more ideas. 🙂
Again…what do I DO with these cards? I review a few of them each day. Sometimes twice or more. That way, the truth is right there in my mind, ready to leap into my thoughts when I need it! If I know I struggle more at certain times of the day, then I will review my cards just before that time of the day. I PRE-EMPT the temptation!
1. When I eat 0 to 5 I have joy, peace, and delight.
2. When I don’t eat 0 to 5 I have guilt, frustration, and disappointment with myself.
3. Eating 0 to 5 I will land on a slender size that is right for me…not TOO thin and not too heavy. (Either is unhealthy!)
4. Not eating 0 to 5, I will always battle with my weight.
5. Eating 0 to 5 I never wonder what my size will do. It is predictable.
6. When I don’t eat 0 to 5, I wonder if I will “get away with it” forever.
7. When I don’t eat 0 to 5 I have a stuffed feeling after eating.
8. When I eat 0 to 5, I get to eat more frequently. Small meals, more frequently is a fun way to eat!
9. When I don’t eat 0 to 5, food doesn’t taste as good.
10. Eating 0 to 5 I get to enjoy LIFE!
11. Not eating 0 to 5, I am paranoid and self-conscious about how my clothes fit. I reach into the closet wondering how grave the damage will be.

I absolutely see the importance of reviewing my truth cards. I read them in the morning before I start my day and after my daughter goes to bed. Sometimes I need to read mid-afternoon when I’m tempted to eat when not hungry. I am finding that after having my cards for a few months that when I am tempted the Holy Spirit brings back these truths to my remembrance. As I am faithful to spend time reviewing them, then the truth is there when I’m feeling weak or need encouragement. It’s making a HUGE difference in staying within my boundaries. I just spend some time reading through my cards, adding things, highlighting things, and adjusting where I wanted tabs for quick review. I’m so thankful for what The Lord is doing!
What a great testimony for the value of truth cards! Thanks, Christina!
