I heard of a hypnotherapy that hypnotized people to believe they had a gastric band fitted and it really worked but I lost t the number I find it difficult to lose weight difficult , as I am disabled so I can't go to a gym (can't afford it anyway) and as I can't move around very much I don't get any excercise I know all about calories,fat contents and all the rest but most days If I eat breakfast then I eat all day but mostly if I don't have breakfast I can last up to tea time without eating,anything.

I am a hypnotherapist based in Sheffield and a large percentage of the clients I have worked with over the years have had weight related issues. I would be happy to have a free no obligation chat on the phone with anyone interested in who I am and how I could help.

I am registered with the two leading hypnotherapy governing bodies in the UK, I am fully insured, highly trained and am based from my own private clinic in the city centre (rather than a back bedroom which is where some hypnotherapists work from!)

I don't do any hard sells, I just present information to help you make an unhurried and no obligation decision about what would be best for you. To help that process I can offer a free 30 minute hypnotic relaxation MP3 so you can hear what I sound like when I am at work. I also have a free PDF guide called "10 things you MUST know before getting hypnotherapy". This has been designed so you can find a hypnotherapist who is professional, ethical and is therefore more likely to be able to help you make the changes you desire. There are thankfully very few unethical hypnotherapists in Sheffield but there are one or two! To download these free items go to https://sheffield-hypnosis.co.uk/free-download/

Hi Clare, you are talking about a hypnotic gastric band. This approach has gained a lot of media attention over the last few years but in my opinion is not appropriate for the majority of people who enquire about this treatment.

A hypnotic gastric band boils down to an imagined decrease in stomach capacity leading to feeling fuller sooner so less food is put in so weight loss follows. This focuses on the final stage of weight gain...the details of what you put into your body and how much you put in. At the very beginning of the process is a feeling which is turned into a thought or an idea. This leads to beliefs which leads to action. When you tackle the action side of things you leave all the feelings, thoughts and ideas in place and hope that the reduction in capacity over rides them.

I find it is much more effective to help people to focus on the early stages of the process, thereby nipping things in the bud before they develop so there is no need to reduce capacity because the thoughts and feelings have changed.

This approach for weight reduction is often the best approach for people who are emotional eaters or mindless eaters as it tackles the origins of these states which is usually nothing to do with food.

For some people a hypnotic gastric band CAN be a good solution. It tends to be those who eat to excess (even though they know they have had enough) and do this without there being an emotional or mindless element who are most appropriate for this approach.

If you want more information on hypnotic gastric bands just have a look at my web page on the issue.

For the most part, exercise isn't even all that important if all you're looking to do is lose weight. The amount of calories lost in an average workout don't really add up to much, but the calories gained from snacking, soda and fatty meals really do.

I highly recommend Richard! Off for my next therapy tonight.

I couldn't agree more Oryx! There have been a number of studies done that have shown that exercising to lose weight is rarely effective. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying stay on the sofa!! But if you are going to the gym to "burn off calories" you are right in that you burn off very few calories.

 

Much better to not eat it in the first place! If you don't put it in, you can't put it on!

Thanks for your recommendation Victoria! In my experience, a personal recommendation can be very helpful for those that might be a little unsure about hypnotherapy and how it might be able to help.
