| "I have been overweight for more than 30 years – binging on chocolate, crisps, eating in between meals and generally eating fatty/unhealthy food. I’ve tried every diet under the sun and although I’ve lost weight on some of them it always goes back on again. I had no faith at all in hypnotherapy but a colleague of mine gave up his 20 a day smoking habit after his session with Emily so I thought I might as well give it a go.
On my 1st session I was hopeful but full of doubt, thinking “this can’t work for me I have been like this for most of my life.” I left the session feeling absolutely no different to when I went in. But that evening I did my weekly shop and found myself in the fruit and vegetable aisle for more than 35 minutes (time that was previously allocated to the cake and chocolate aisle!). To my absolute surprise I was able to walk past the chocolate aisle without actually going up there to get my “ normal” weekly chocolate bar, the ones I ate before I even got them home!
I had 3 sessions 2 weeks apart which I paid for in advance to make sure I would keep attending. In my first 2 weeks I lost 10lbs. By my third session I had lost 1 stone and 2 pounds. I have continued to lose weight (I’ve now lost 2 stone and 2 pounds in 4 months). I have the weight loss CD which I’ve only listened to about 3 times in the 4 months but it is there if I need it and does help if I lose my way a bit.
I do have occasional treats but on the whole I have managed to maintain a social life without compromising my healthy eating and I can honestly say I enjoy my healthier food now. I only eat if I’m hungry and I’ve broken my bad habits of a lifetime. I’ve dropped more than 2 sizes in clothes and feel much healthier, happy and content. Gone are the feelings of self loathing and although I’ll never be a twig, I’m starting to feel happy about my size now. I really do recommend this if you’ve tried everything else and have not been able to have the will power to stick to a healthy eating plan. If this worked for a non believer like me it will work for anyone! I have no idea how it works but for me it is the only thing that has made a difference. The change was instant (the same day as the 1st session) and it comes naturally to me now; it is my new way of life."
