1 The Truth, The Whole Nut Truth And Nothing But The Truth!
Ahhh, chocolate. Just the word is enough to make the average person melt faster than the cocoa butter itself, which explains why just the thought of giving it up is usually enough to fill the average chocolate lover with a slight degree of apprehension, and for others, out and out panic! However, it doesn’t matter how much of the dark stuff you eat, how often you eat it or whether you believe life just wouldn’t be worth living without it; the beautiful truth is anyone can find it easy to kick chocolate – even you!
All that’s needed for this minor miracle to manifest itself is an extremely open mind, the promise that you will read some of this book every day, to keep the momentum going, a willingness to follow my guidelines at the end – oh, and plenty of chocolate! Yep, contradiction in terms though it is, please ‘feel free’ to continue to eat as much chocolate as your little heart desires until you finish the book (and, no, that doesn’t mean taking 20 years to finish the book!). If you do that, if you are willing to really open your mind and put your beloved chocolate on the rack, then your break to freedom from one of the most heavily advertised junkie foods in the world is as good as guaranteed.
A WOLF IN CHOCOLATE CLOTHING
The truth is, once we have slowly stripped away the many different layers from this cunning chocolate wolf and unwrapped the cold hard truth lurking beneath the glamorous advertising, product placements and seductive glossy packaging – you will never be able to see chocolate in the same light again. Let me make myself clear here: I don’t mean you will go off it slightly and cut down a little, no, no, no – I mean once you are able to see this hyped up, sugar-infested drug food for what it really is and not as you’ve been conditioned to see it, settling down to a bar of the stuff will be about as appealing as plucking your nasal hairs with a fish fork.
For the first time ever the whole business of chocolate is going to get the licking it deserves and by the time you finish this book, unlike with a ‘no-chocolate diet’ or going on the ‘chocolate wagon’, you will not only be happy not to eat it (a miracle in itself), but also, when you see other people consuming the stuff, far from envying them (or wanting to hurt them severely!) you will actually feel sorry for them.
However, for this seemingly impossible feat to happen, your current perception of this emotionally driven ‘food’ needs to take a massive shift. Fortunately, this will be a piece of cake (not chocolate obviously!). All we need to do is see through the years of brainwashing we’ve all been subjected to, explode the myths, shatter the illusions, and discover the correct knowledge and unique way of thinking that will make the whole process of kicking the choccie habit as easy as organic pie!
KNOWLEDGE IS POWER – BUT ONLY OF THE RIGHT KIND!
Now in case you’re a ‘virgin’ to my world of thinking and have yet to indulge in my first book Slim 4 Life: Freedom from the Food Trap, I need you to know from the start exactly where I’m coming from. I’m not into doom and gloom, I don’t do willpower, I speak plain English and I tell it like it is. Let me be clear, I’m not here to win any literary awards, by golly gosh no, I’m simply here to shake the chocolate world and provide you with the correct knowledge which will enable you to be free to have a non-chocolate break if you so choose! And when I say, ‘correct knowledge’ I don’t mean the usual nonsense you get from what I describe as the ‘State the Bleeding Obvious Brigade’. You know, the amazing, mind-blowing and life-changing info they come out with, like:
