Mumsnet Talk

The book was delivered today I havent had chance to read throught it yet....Has anyone tryed this?? It has a cd with it ...

if you follow the rules .... yes

honest, it does work. But don't be fooled into thinking you wont need will power. It's like any other weightloss plan, you have to want to lose wieght more than anything else and for the right reasons. Otheriwse you will break the "rules" just like on any other diet.

I have lost wieght on it and know others who have had success too. I like the fact i dont have to count anything or plan my meals in advance.

The CD is good, do you have an ipod or mp3? i listen to mine on my ipod at bedtime mainly.

I just listened to the cd every night and it worked like magic!

Actually, what it did was make me feel loads better about myself and that in turn made me less likely to eat out of self-hatred and so I was consuming less calories and losing weight.

I didn't bother with anything to do with food cos of my food Ishoos. But the cd has been wonderful!

Agreed, it's the CD that works, not the book. Listen to that regularly, keep to his rules, and it really is good. I've gone down from size 16 to (generous) size 12 since June.

wow sixfoldwaitingtime

thats amazing!

Can I ask whether people fall asleep liustening to the CD or not? WOuld it matter do you think? I always fall alseep while listening.

Now if I could just get past the self saboutage ..... I might get past the first half stone

My DH lost 3.5 stones.....

I'm currently trying to be rich.

My DH always listened to the cd and fell asleep, it doesn't matter at all.

I mostly fell asleep while listening to it and it still worked. I've gone from a size 28 to almost into a 22 so far It's been slow because it's about changing me not a "diet", I don't do "diets".

There's actually a version of the CD (I think you can download it from his website) which is designed for listening to as you go to sleep - it doesn't have the wake up bit at the end. If you know someone who's good at searching the web for MP3s, they can probably find it for you....

Thanks for all the messages. I have a i pod how do i get the cd on to there??

hi there - may I join you? Have been doing this for a couple of weeks and have lost precisely.....nothing.

My biggest problem is not knowing when I am full - and gluttony . It's all very well for him to say only eat food you really like but I'm enjoying it all so much that I can't stop!

How long does it take before you tsrat realising you are full?

(purpledreamer - load the CD into you computer than transfer it onto your ipod don't know the proper words, soprry!)

sorry for typos there...

Well i listened to the cd a few times and for some reason im eating smaller portions ! i made a cooked dinner today and i loaded on all i usuall have and i couldnt even eat half of it so i think something is working !

well done - I even left a bit of dinner today as well so maybe something is sinking in...

Tommy - I know on his tv programme he says try eating with a blindfold on, you will only have your stomach to go on not what you can see on your plate.

good idea lisasimpson! I'm caught in the trap of only eating what I really like and enjoying it so much that I overeat...

he has a tv programme ????

I have the book stashed under my bed somewhere. Reading this thread has inspired me to track it down, dust it off and read it again.

I do remember when I first read it I started eating smaller portions but I do think that it is something that you have to keep going back to for inspiration.

well i started (again ) monday and am so worried that i wont have lost but really want to get on the scales. I am determined to wait the 2 weeks tho, hoping that will keep me going this time.

A couple of times i have realised afterwards that i atr a bit too much at a meal or i felt myself reaching for a snack but found there is a voice in my head that told me not to - as I wasnt hungry.

I am listening nightly and determined to lose a stone by xmas

me too, gingernut

Can I join? After reading this thread yesterday I thought I would buy the Cds bit expensive but in the long run probably cheaper than Weight watchers or some other diet club.

Also I have tried hypnosis before and it worked really well especially on my insomnia so fingers cross this works too. I have about 2 stones to loose two.

Do you mind if we keep this thread going and compare progess?

I can't wait to receive the cds now!!

need a hand, you only really need the one CD thats comes with the little book "I can make you thin"

I paid £6 for mine on ebay

I got mine - book, 90 day journal and CD for £2 in Tesco!

But I definitely need some support with it all so I'd be glad to keep this thread going.

ordered mine yesterday from amazon for £3. will be reading with interest how every one gets on,
