Answer to Question 1

1) Apparently Irrelevant Decisions (AIDs): A series of seemingly harmless decisions can provide a conduit for a relapse. For example, buying a bag of potato chips for the children or a bag of cookies in case guests stop by creates conditions that can bring an individual to the brink of a relapse.
2) Stress Level: A person experiencing a high degree of stress is automatically generating negative emotional states, thereby creating high-risk situations (see Exhibit 7.5). In addition, there is an increased desire to relapse and connect to the satisfying emotional states with previous unhealthy eating pleasures.
3) Cognitions: Cognitive factors such as rationalization and denial set the stage for a relapse. For example, I deserve a whole batch of brownies after this rejection.. Here rationalization that the indulgence is justified adds to the creation of a relapsing environment.
4) Urges and Cravings: The desire for immediate gratification can take the forms of urges, sudden impulses to indulge, or cravings, subjective desires to experience the effects of an indulgence.
