Sally Serves It Up

Bonus Ep 142: Try this urge reframe today!

Sally Webster Season 3 Episode 142

If you've ever smoked, you know how strong your desire can be for a cigarette. And if you've quit smoking, you know it's normal to sometimes still fancy one and like the smell! The key is to not panic in those moments thinking your desire for a cigarette is a problem or has to mean you start smoking again!

In today's episode, I explain how I smelled a cigarette the other day and wanted one! And at the same time, I knew I didn't want one. These two conflicting desires can be true at the same time and the difference with smoking versus food cravings is we don't entertain them in the same way. We hold space for our desire for the cigarette but know that staying the course is the only option because it's just not worth it to start smoking again!

What if you could look at your desire for food that's not on your daily plan in the same way? I want that [insert off-plan food item] AND I don't really want that. I want that AND I know it's not worth it to not follow my plan today.

Listen to the full episode to hear how this urge reframe could help you to become more consistent with following your plan.
