Episode two will air in less than three hours. I have set the DVR to record the episode, but I hope to watch it live. Tonight’s episode will be about emotional eating - and Paul is going to introduce his tapping technique. I must admit, I was a bit weirded out by the tapping technique when I first saw it, but I’ve tried it, and amazingly, it works.

Here’s a quick list of Paul McKenna resources -

This morning, out of habit, I stepped on the scale - and I’m down 8 pounds. My goal is to lose 80 pounds - so that’s 72 to go!

I Can Make You Thin With Paul McKenna - TLC - Preview Episode 2

I’ve been following Paul McKenna’s ‘4 Golden Rules’ for 5 days - and I am amazed by how ‘in control’ I am. For those who have been reading my blog, you know how much I have struggled with yo-yo dieting. Now, I eat what I want, I eat at a controlled pace, and, when I’m full, I stop eating.

Episode 2 of Paul’s show - I Can Make You Thin - will air Sunday night on TLC. Here’s a quick preview -

Pretty awesome, right? Hopefully, in a year or so, I’ll be able to post my own ‘before’ and ‘after’ shots!This is the first time, in two years of writing about losing weight, that I have truly felt like I was going to make it. Seriously. I’m 33 and I had begun to feel like 93. Now, I have more energy, I eat less, and I feel like moving.I would strongly encourage you to watch the show. I know it looks simple. I know it looks basic. But, I’ve been hungry for 15 years - and I’ve tried every diet on the planet. And, somehow, someway, these 4 Golden Rules WORK. I’m down 7 pounds and I am confident, for the first time in a long time, that I am going to lose all the weight I need to lose.

4 Golden Rules - After Lunch Day 4 - Down 7 Pounds!

Posted by NCN
March 20, 2008

I now weigh an even 250 pounds.  That’s seven pounds less than I weighed on Monday morning.  I am eating less.  I am enjoying my food more.  I have more energy.  I cannot believe how easy this plan is to follow.

After following the ‘Golden Rules’ for four days, I can report the following -

I have learned how to listen to my stomach - I know when I am hungry and I know when I am full.  Now, this might seem like something that we all know intuitively, but, I think that most people struggle to quit eating when they are full.  By taking my time - and really thinking about each and every bite - I’ve learned that I get full after only a few bites.

I have learned how important it is to drink water - and a lot of it.  I never realized how much better I would feel when hydrated.  A lot of overweight people refuse to drink a lot of water - fearing the dreaded ‘water weight’.  I’ve done a little research - and water weight has nothing to do with how much water is consumed.  It has to do with how much sodium is consumed.  Drinking several glasses of water a day keeps me full and helps with various bodily functions.

I get to eat what I want.  Period.  I eat steak or a cookie or corn or a potato or sunflower seeds or a pickle or candy or oatmeal or…  I fix it.  I sit down at the table.  I eat a few bites.  I drink my water.  I’m full.  I’m satisfied.  I’m done.

I know that I should step away from the scale.  But, I’m so amazed by how simple this program is, that I can’t help but want to see the progress I’m making.  But, I promise, I will not weigh myself until Monday.  I promise!
