in East London and Essex
Quote "inside 10
days I had stopped eating junk food, began leaving food on the plate,
could be tempted to eat and drink and say no..... and now I have lost
7 lbs...."
Hypnotherapy is about taking back control and being relaxed, calm and confident in
your the way you react and behave in the presence of food. It addresses the pyschological reasons you eat.
Diets are hard work, your mind is always pre-ocupied with food and eating. Plus you loose weight then put it all back on.
Eating habits
can be readily changed if it is just continual snacking, grazing
or looking in the fridge. Chocolate or cheese addiction, too
many potatoes or crisps. Hypnotherapy gives intrinsic control to stop.
Fasting, Binge eating
followed by making yourself ill require control and learning
to relax, taking away the need to distract yourself from unpleasant memories
or jibes about your weight by continuous fasting or binge eating then
making yourself ill. hypnotherapy is ideally suited to this.
Weight Loss we
don't do diets they are a short term fix, life style has to change for
control of eating and weight loss to be permanent. Control has to
be established and the reason for overeating treated.
The best way to control your weight
is to reduce the total number of calories you take in and to be more physically
active. Long-term success is not about finding the "right" diet. It's
about identifying your behaviours that have contributed to taking in more
calories than your body needs. It is also about making a plan to develop
healthier eating and physical activity habits. For example, you may eat
when you're under stress rather than when you're hungry. Choosing another
activity to do when you feel stressed, such as taking a walk, may help
you break the habit of eating at those times.
You're more likely to make changes
in your habits if you set a specific goal for yourself. For example, instead
of saying, "I'm going to lose 20 pounds," decide that you'll be more active
every other day of the week. Be specific about what kind of activity you'll
do and which days you'll do it. Your new goal might be: "During my lunch
hour on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, I'm going to walk for half an
hour in the park." Once your new healthy behaviour becomes a habit, you
can move on to another goal.
Why
is physical activity a big deal?
Physical activity builds muscles,
so even if you don't lose pounds, you will look and feel better when you
are more active. Being active also reduces your risk of chronic diseases
like heart disease and diabetes, even if you are overweight.
