Hitting myself on the head with a sledgehammer

Has anybody tried this to jumpstart their weight loss? I heard about this sledgehammer idea from a friend. I did some research and it sounds too good to be true.
But I found a sledgehammer fairly cheap at Home Depot, just $29.99. This is the one with the fiberglass handle. I found another one with a wood handle for $39.99 . Both of them have forged steel heads, which apparently is the key ingredient for weight loss. You can get cheaper a one with a plastic handle, but from everything I've read, that's worthless and a waste of money.
Anyway, I thought I would experiment. I picked up both kinds. In the first 10 days, I'll use the fiberglass handled sledgehammer. After this 10 day period is up, I'll be trying the wood handled one.
I think I'll post my progress through my blog if anyone want to keep up with it there.
So, after that long post, I'll ask my original question again..... Has anybody tried either of these? Successful? Unsucessful?

This sounds a little dangerous.0

Fiberglass handle is too processed. You should have gone with wood.0

I was going to buy a jackhammer, but reading this makes me wonder if an sledgehammer would work better....0

After the first 10 days, you'll forget about the second one. At least, that is what I have been told...0

It works better if you knock out your teeth so you're forced to eat through a straw. That means you can do all the juice cleanses and detoxes out there. Or just do them rectally. People weren't really designed to chew their food anyway.0

6 months, not 4.
I agree with Shelby0 -
I think Phineas Gage lost some weight. Maybe you're onto something.0

A lot of people find that being knocked out cold makes them eat less. I say try it. Might work for you - enjoy your journey!0

You don't need any sledgehammers to jump start your weight loss. Just drink 5 gallons of water per day and try the 30 day shred. Make sure to eat back 9/16th of your exercise calories.0

This is a myth and does not promote weight loss in any way. However, if you have a goal height within an inch or two of your current height, this may temporarily promote increased height for the week or so following a solid thud to the top of the skull . Results improve with a reasonable calorie surplus and regular exercise.0

Remember that it's only a temporary gain, a few days after you start the skull starts to "eat itself" and caves, this is where the losses truly begin :drinker:0 -

With a weekly knock to the top of he head, callusing may or may not occur, increasing the potential for height gains.0 -
