Irrational Beliefs and Challenges #3 of 13

Irrational Belief #3: I am worthless because I am overweight.

Challenges:
  • Although I prefer to have less body fat, I am not worthless because of my size.
  • I am as worthwhile as the next person.
  • Self-worth is not defined by looks or amount of body fat.
  • There are other important things that demonstrate my strengths.
  • Self-worth is developed from within, and not by approval from others.
Behavior: Practice positive self-talk. Engage in activities and behaviors that you feel good about that help increase self-esteem, such as calling a friend, attending church, doing a hobby, etc.
