Should I Say Anything or Just Bite My Tongue?
ОглавлениеPrime examples of just what can happen if not armed with the correct way of thinking are my two friends I mentioned earlier. I have told you about Martin, the friend who only managed to “survive” for two days before “butting” his way to defeat, but what I didn’t tell you was the full story of what happened to him.
During the early evening of day 2 he experienced what I now refer to as a “bread head.” This is where he had such a mental craving for bread (in other words SUGAR) that when he went to take a bite he bit so quickly and so hard that he literally bit a hole in his tongue (if you ever see the 7 lbs in 7 Days DVD you will see exactly what I mean). The tongue is an organ that repairs itself perhaps faster than any other and yet even when he woke up the following morning the hole still hadn’t healed. He ended up having to go to the hospital, where he had two stitches! If he had only said the right things to himself he would never have had to bite his tongue.
Clearly this is an extremely rare case, even for those people who have no mental prep. What I want you to get from this tale is that he wasn’t suffering physically before he took a chunk of bread; he simply had a mother of a mental craving. The point is that he had a bread head, not a bread stomach. In exactly the same way, the woman who called me had a chocolate head rather than a chocolate stomach.
I am pleased to say that after my conversation with the “chocolate head” woman, she was fine and not only completed the 7-day program but also the Phase 2 Turbo-Charge Plan as well and dropped 19 lbs (9 kg) in all. The irony is that if she had shut up and had actually had some she wouldn’t have been able to shut up. What I mean is that she would have immediately felt like a failure and it would have driven her crazy. By shutting up and not having some, she went on to succeed.
