Stay away from food temptation

We all have demon foods which tempt us that once we start eating we cannot stop. A great strategy is to stop buying those foods which you cannot stop eating. For me chocolate is one of those demon foods. It is interesting. I eat semi-sweet dark chocolate as an antioxidant supplement. So when I eat it with that intention I can control the amount I eat. It still tastes great but it is controllable.

At the same time I can have an unopened box of chocolates in the house for six months and never be tempted to open the box. However, once I open the box I’ll continue eating them until the box is empty.

Now we each have our own eating history which can be problematic. The point is to understand our individual eating habits and avoid those tempting foods. If you eat one chocolate cookie and will not stop until you finish the bag don’t get any.

Now using hypnosis and NLP (neuro-linguistic programming) we can change people’s food preferences. One of my weight management clients used to eat more than twenty hamburgers a year and now eats fewer than five after a coming to the Michelangelo Weight Management Seminar and a single two hour private session.

Another client was once telling me, “I don’t know why but I have been eating much more fruits and vegetables recently.” I knew that I had given her that suggestion as a posthypnotic suggestion with amnesia. So I smiled and said, “That’s right. You don’t know why and you will continue eating more fruits and vegetables and your weight will soon reach your desired goal.” She did reduce her weight by twenty pounds and did not gain it back.

Remember – diets do not work in the long run. More about that later.

Also since I just ended a three and a half day fast – note fasts are greats for detoxification, strengthening your will power, and most importantly spirituality, but you do not lose any permanent weight when you fast. My weight went down by eleven pounds but will return to my natural weight very soon.
