quickcluck Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 (edited) Has anyone tried this yet? I've been doing something very similar with encouraging results So was just interested if anybody else has investigated it?

Olly Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 someone posted on here a while back about this, but as far as I recall "Ooops, word censored!"ody came forward to say they had tried it. Can you elaborate a bit - I take it you have hypnosis that makes you think you've had a band fitted, so you eat less - is that right? How long ago did you have it, and how encouraging is it? I'm interested in this, would love to hear more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MummyHen Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 I'd love to hear your experiences - if you don't want to post details please PM me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickcluck Posted October 27, 2010 Author Share Posted October 27, 2010 Well, i've had 3 sessions.......... The first 1 was visualising the gastric band being put in - very weird. I'd never had this sort of hynosis before. But I can remember every word that was said!! It definatley had some effect, my eating habids definately changed. The second session I was asked what I thought my hardest things were i.e food types, dodgy times of the day etc.... the band was 'tightened' and the script was directed at these areas. This definately had some effect, immediately! 3rd session was much the same. I was warned that it could take 2 weeks to take effect, and inbetween the first and second session I had a week away and wasn't tempted at all, and gained no weight. The last 2 weeks have been great so since the beginning I'm about a stone down I can honestly say I'm not hungry, craving NO foods not eating between meals and feeling very positive! I thought long and hard before posting on here, as I'm a fairly private person, but thought I might find a kindred spirit to buddy me along a bit!

bigmommasally Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 Wow thats impressive Kay I wonder if it would work for me? I'm having a bad relationship with Peanut Butter on Toast at the moment Did you have done locally? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sari Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 I've tried the Paul McKenna cd's with a small amount of success...but finding an hour's peace and quiet is impossible...this sounds great. I am not a big eater..but a person with a funny relationship with food. Mom used food to comfort and solace, and to reward me...hence my choc consumption...I'd be really interested in giving this a go... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MummyHen Posted October 27, 2010 Share Posted October 27, 2010 This is very interesting - I've tried everything and I mean everything; I did Paul Mckenna CD I even went to one of his session, but it didn't work. Kay could you PM me the name & number the person/clinic you're using? Many thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickcluck Posted October 27, 2010 Author Share Posted October 27, 2010 It's odd how we have an odd relationship with food. I'd never really seen myself as a comfort eater, big eater or an over indulger, however, something I'm doing is obviously very wrong! I'm really pleased and living in moment - the difference this time, is I'm not spending all day everyday, thinking about what to have for tea, or what's calling me from the cupboard. Getting rid of my sweet craving is liberating....

Cinnamon Posted October 28, 2010 Share Posted October 28, 2010 I posted about this a while ago & even got as far as booking an appointment with a local therapist,who has some very encouraging reviews,but I had to cancel at the last minute & have not got around to re booking I think I will look into it again though!

quickcluck Posted March 10, 2011 Author Share Posted March 10, 2011 Hi guys, just thought you may like an update. I think I am doing ok I've lost 2 dress sizes and just under 3 stone Not the fastest weight loss, obvious not as fast as a real band, but that doesn't bother me. I can hand on heart say I've not for a moment thought I was on a diet, dont think about food all day, and really eat what I want. She did stop my craving for sweet things and help me with my worst times of the day which is 4pm for me. It's been the easiest weight loss for me, and now she's taught me how to tighten it myself should I feel the need. So all in all feeling quite postive!

whoopsie Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 wow that's really good news, well done! I have some friends who are desperately trying to lose weight, I will tell them about it. One of the GPs I know has an excellent record with hypnosis for quitting smoking too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seagazer Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 I wish something like this would work for my hubby but I don't think hypnosis would work on him (he's tried it for stress). He keeps going on and off that Lighterlife diet, he loses the weight but as soon as he gets back on 'normal' food he over-eats again.

Charlottechicken Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Hi guys, just thought you may like an update. I think I am doing ok I've lost 2 dress sizes and just under 3 stone I think you are doing brilliantly! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quickcluck Posted March 10, 2011 Author Share Posted March 10, 2011 Thanks everyone....... i'm feeling quite good at the moment... Ann Sometimes the cause of the overeating has to be treated before any type of weightloss will be perminant. Sadly I understand how hard that it...
