Paul McKenna

Has anyone else tried the Paul McKenna thing to cure an addiction? I have lasted a whole week with no chocolate using his technique. I can look at it now and think 'yuck'!!

[JOEYGREEN]

No I haven't tried anything before but if you say its good I'm definitely willing to try it. I am a sucker for chocolate. It is my absolute downfall. What is it a book or DVD or something?

[888sally888]

Its something he demonstrated on GMTVa couple of weeks ago - I am sure it must be in one of his books too.

You basically mix the image of chocolate with something you would hate and imagine eating it. Bit more complicated than that though.

I cringe when i see chocolate now and i was REALLY bad eating it!!

Forgive my curiosity Sally :-) but I'm wondering what it is you're imagining you're eating with it lol......

I'm saving my chocolate for after my dog walk to have with my tea :-) xxx

[888sally888]

Right here goes!!!

I would hate to eat heart (raw with tubes etc). So I imagine a heart filled with chocolate and sprinkled with bits of hair. Imagine biting into that and how it would feel in your mouth - yuk!! Or a heart covered in chocolate and as you bite in --- well imagine the vile taste.

I have lost 3lbs this week - the chocolate was my downfall to being a bit porky for sure!!


And yesmadam - I have done the dog walk with NO chocolate at the end - hee hee!!

[yesmadam]

Hugest Congrats on the weight loss!!!

Laughing at your wild imagination, dear gawd.... I've got that stuck in my head now lol.....

So, off to do my 5 miles with Dylan my dobe, walking with 3 greyhounds, 2 Staffs, 2 Leonburgers, 1 Bernese, 1 Rhodesian, 1 Labrador and 1 Lurcher.......

and you wonder why I need the chocolate hehe...... :-) xxx

My god - its like 101 dalmations!!

I have a Bedlington Terrier called Pickles - walk every day for at least an hour - why arent I size 8??!!

Have a nice walk and see if you can use my image and then eat chocolate later!! Let me know!!

[Skreecheeboy]

I see how this could benefit somebody who is a fatty but how on earth would it help somebody with a real addiction?

[dee5]

I saw that on GMTV a few weeks ago but i thjought it was a load of nonsense. If you say it works then i am off to the GMTV Website to see what i need to do!!!

[888sally888]

worth a try - def worked for me with the evil chocolate!!

[yesmadam]

'ello :-), back from the mad walk and couldn't wait for my tea and chocolate. Woolfed it down and then? oops, should have thought about it and then? I could never throw out chocolate and then?... eureka!!!

Dark chocolate 70% is supposed to be good for you as it has antioxidants in it lol...

and...... a little of what you fancy does you good.....

p.s Love Bedlington Terriers
