:thumbup:Has anyone ever seen this show on TLC before? I have been watching it for the past 3-weeks and it seems like it works... Basiclly they are saying that it is all in your mind...

I've watched briefly a couple of times. The host is annoying as hell, IMO.

....it's been in my mind for so long it settled on my waist, my hips, my arms, my thighs....

:regular_smile: That is to funny, but true....

i have tried to watch this gentleman, but his voice just makes me think "INFOMERCIAL." I hope it just isn't another false hope for people. g2s

I have seen it, but share the feelings of others here about the host. I am hoping there might be some info on the website about dealing with the head hunger.

If you can get past the cheesy set/infomercial feel, it really is some good stuff.....very bandster friendly....watch your portions, eat slowly, chew, chew, chew....sound familiar?

I did get totally hoked out when he started on the pressure point thing, though.....tapping my forehead will make me NOT want to eat chips....hmmmmmmmmmmm highly unlikely.

We've been watching it... my boyfriends giving it a go and seems to think the techniques work.

I have it recorded and haven't watched it. I hope there is something useful in there. If you go to his website, he wants money for his books and cd's etc.

I say the same thing... The host seems cheezy but i think its worth a try hey it's not like it will cost me anything.....

I did like the show where he had the overweight guy imagine his favorite food covered with his least favorite food plus hair and toilet scum. I thought the guy was gonna hurl when he said "OK, take one more bite" (mentally of course).

My co-worker has been watching the show and she also said his techiques are working for her.

What I don't get is when he asks someone what their level of craving is for a certain food on a scale of 1-10...the people always give him a high number. Then he has them poke at their face, sing a little song and then he asks them again and suddenly they no longer crave poptarts, or whatever....is that scientific or the power of suggestion ?

I dunno...can I just take my fork and poke my face as I'm eating the poptart ??? Just wondering.....:purplebananna:

Yeah, the tapping technique is called EFT. It's based on the art of acupuncture and is supposed to realign the mental energy etc..

I tried it when I went to a hypnotist to help me with eating. It worked to the extent that, when you are tapping yourself you are conscious of the fact that you want to reduce your craving at that moment. I really didn't think there was much else to it.

My therapist taught me EFT a few months ago. It really works. I use it almost daily on anything that is stressing me out - work, crabby husband, headache and head hunger. The pressure points are suppose to "reset" your mind so to speak. I do feel much calmer after I do the routine.
