I Can Make You Thin With Paul McKenna - 4 Golden Rules
I had never heard of ‘Paul McKenna’ until tonight. I was flipping through the channels - and thinking about getting another bowl of ice cream, even though I was already ’stuffed’ - and I saw his show -
I Can Make You Thin
I have decided to give his ‘4 Golden Rules’ a shot.
Here they are - Click the links to go to Paul’s Website - McKenna.Com

4. When You Think You Are Full, Stop Eating

Paul McKenna is hugely popular in the UK. The only thing I’ve ever heard of his was a free CD he gave away in the newspaper about getting out of debt (you may be interested in that!). He’s all about NLP (Neurolinguistic Programming) which I’ve always thought was a fancy word for brainwashing! But then we talked about NLP in an “assertiveness” workshop I went on at work (how corporate), now I think it could be an interesting way to undo bad mental habits, like overindulging in food and spending. I’ll be curious to know what you think… I’m almost tempted to sign up on his website and go lurking in the forums =) Good luck!
@monica..
I’ve done a bit of research - Looks like he does some ‘hypnosis’ and other stuff –
I think that the MAIN point, for me, is to eat consciously…

Coincidentally I just did a review of the TLC show this morning on my blog.
The NLP and corporate self-help stuff makes me think he’s the UK’s Tony Robbins. I think the show is a lot of hype and marketing (for itself though) but all in all good.
I look forward to seeing how your progress with it goes. I read articles via moneyblognetwork.com from No Credit Needed all the time and was unaware you had a weight loss blog.

I completely identify with your experience of seeing Paul McKenna on Sunday night. I was absolutely stuffed at the time I ran into the show too.
Thanks for all your posts on this! It’s nice to hear about others’ experiences!

BTW, these ‘4 golden rules’ are *exactly* the same as the recommendations in Jean Antonello’s book “How to Become Naturally Thin by Eating More”, which was published almost 2 decades ago. It is based on the scientific principle of adaptation.

I love to eat so much that I have trouble waiting unitl I am physically hungry. If I was going to have one dinner in the evening, I could do it. But I eat an early supper to ensure that I will be able to be hungry before bed at 1130pm.
I plan so I will have the highest number of times a day that I will feel somewhat hungry. Otherwise, I feel that I an cheating myself out of another chance to have a small meal. I simply try to arrange my schdule so I will have the most chances to eat meals during the day. I look forward gratly to each chance to eat and cook some fairly healthy meals, I just have too much and too often. I look at tommorow as an opportunity to enjoy as much good food as possible as often as possible. When I am in the shower, I am thing out my eating plan for the day. About 30 min. after I eat, I am planing the next chance to eat. I relly enjoy eating and enjoy all cusines.

People may think it is nonsense, but I can only say by implementing the 4 rules, I have lost 18 pounds in 6 weeks. Be blessed in your journey.
That is amazing. I know what I need to do to lose weight, but I need to get my mind involved. I have lost many pounds on many diets only to gain it back and more.

Good post. You make some great points that most people do not fully understand.
“I had never heard of ‘Paul McKenna’ until tonight. I was flipping through the channels - and thinking about getting another bowl of ice cream, even though I was already ’stuffed’ - and I saw his show -”
I like how you explained that. Very helpful. Thanks.
[...] Starting a diet can be a momentous event and most of us going into it with the best intentions. We want to lose weight and we want to look and feel better, at least for the first few days. Three days in however, and you may be ready to completely chuck your diet so that you can go back to eating real food again. [...]
It’s so exciting to see another PF blogger who is using Paul’s “golden rules”. It has worked wonders for my wife and I! I wrote an article about our progress on my blog, here.
Hey, I’m trying the Paul McKenna experiment for 30 days, and you can follow it “live” on my blog every day: http://thirtydaytrials.wordpress.com/
I hope it will work wonders for me to!
