From the author: All names and data have been changed. There is no way to connect information with a real person and his personal information. Often an overeating person does not realize what type of hunger has overtaken him. First of all, Dasha started a Slimness Diary, in paper (not electronic) form. She liked it better this way. In this diary, she wrote down her initial data and desired goals on the first page. Dasha started with diagnostics. The girl answered the question: I eat when..., or Why do I eat? To do this, the girl drew a sign and completed all stages of the exercise. At the first stage, she answered the question 16 times; at the third stage, Dasha combined each pair of 16 words into one word, not at all by meaning, but by association, resulting in 8 words. Out of 8 words, she deduced 4, then 2 words and got the key word. This sign answers Dasha’s question – why does she eat and what expectations does she have for food? The value of this diagnosis is that Dasha saw what was unconscious to her: she eats, placing unconscious expectations on food, naturally these expectations are not realized, they are not achievable. And so it continues for years in the form of a closed cycle: expectations-food-guilt-excess weight-expectations-food...Next, Dasha proceeds to the next table, in which she lays out her main expectations for unmet needs and feelings. Dasha conducts a diagnostic: why does she need to lose weight? This diagnostic is carried out similarly to the first tablet: we start with 16 words, then 8 words, and up to 1 key word. The diagnostic results led Dasha to the realization of two main situations for her in relation to being slim: she eats in order to become happy and strong. She wants to be slim so that everyone will like her. Let’s now take Dasha’s sadness about this realization out of the equation. For so many years she wanted to achieve the unattainable: it’s like expecting a cat to start barking and a dog to start mooing. Or the parrot will moo. The diagnostic part of the work at this stage was completed. Nastya began the second part of her independent work on gaining dignity. Dasha had to give herself permission. Allow a drop of love in your address, for yourself as you are. To begin with, she wanted to understand what she was like. Dasha was going to write a story about herself: Who is she and what is she like? Draw a picture: My feeling of hunger. And talk to your body, express to it all the complaints that it is not happy with in the body. Get answers from the body - talk to yourself on behalf of the body and respond to complaints. First of all, Dasha drew a feeling of hunger. She put off talking about herself and dialogue with her body; for some reason it was difficult for her to begin this work. Whenever a sharp feeling of hunger arose inside Dasha, she felt as if a hungry snake was waking up inside her. Dasha was recommended to make a snake out of plasticine or draw one. And feed as many times a day as needed...feed mentally. This went on for two weeks. At first, feedings were private, 6-8 times a day. Then 3 times a day, 1 time a day. After about 2 weeks, the Snake was satisfied. And she “wanted” to go away. Dasha burned the drawing, took the ashes to the park and scattered them in the wind. Answer "body" Dasha performs the Exercise "New Body Image". Reads for 21 days, looking into his eyes, in the mirror. He hangs a photograph of his new image in the visible space, takes it using one of the computer programs, without fanaticism. Diary of Slimness 6 months have passed. Dasha's review of the work done I am deeply shocked that I have lost weight. Previously, I didn’t believe that I would be able to find harmony at all, and that I could do everything myself. From time to time, a psychologist supported me, in the context that I could handle it, and that my tears and difficulties were part of the process. Yes, at first it was quite difficult for me and at times it hurt. Drawing the feeling of hunger helped a lot, I felt that it was not my fault, that there was another object that required me to constantly eat. The diagnostic stage allowed me to realize that I expect what I expect from food.
