TESTIMONIALS FOR GASTRIC BAND HYPNOSIS

I just wanted to tell you Kay that since I have been on your 5 week Gastric Band Hypnosis course I seem to have lots more energy. Also, I used to suffer from frequent headaches, but I rarely get these now that I eat differently. I liked the ‘Anchor’ you taught me and this helps me to think good thoughts, especially if things start to get me down.

I find the way you have taught me to eat has been easy to ‘weave’ into my life style, it’s not difficult, and yet it works. I found it really relaxing coming to see you and I have always looked forward to coming along for a chat.

I was surprised at how well I accepted the Gastric Band Hypnosis, because I felt a bit cynical about it, and yet it has worked well, I don’t have any problems now with my portion sizes, I eat small portions little and often and this works for me.

I was the worse yo-yo dieter until I was 50 and was depressed about it, but working with you has changed my whole way of thinking about losing weight – it’s not a punishment anymore! It’s a new way of living that isn’t intrusive!

Since coming to Kay I feel better about myself. I have a healthier life style and I’m learning to be more tolerant with situations. Kay has encouraged me to carry on with my weight loss, even though it has been slow, this is due to an underactive thyroid condition. The Gastric Band Hypnosis course helped me to eat little and often and I now find it easy to eat small meals. The eating programme is easy to fit in with my very busy social life, and I think that has made it easier for me to stay on course

I have never given up and I’m pleased to say that I’ve lost 2.5 stone in 12 months and I’ve dropped 2 dress sizes.

Thank you Kay so much for making me feel better about myself and to know now that I have the courage to lose the weight that I have carried around with me for years. And it’s good to know that I have continual support – if and when I need it! I feel happier in myself now than I have felt for years. So once again, thank you so much, I will return!

It took me nearly 6 months to pluck up the courage to contact Kay after reading an article in my local newspaper about a lady who had had the hypno-band hypnosis with Kay. I needn’t have worried, Kay had a very quiet, calm, empathetic approach and during the free initial consultation explained all that would happen over the course of the 5 sessions, how long each session would be, and the total cost.

My weight had yo-yo’d for about 45 years and I felt that, at 60, it was ‘do or die’ this time. Having been to numerous weight loss clubs over the years I thought I knew all there was to know about dieting, however this is not a diet. It’s learning how to eat like a naturally slim person, eating more often, but smaller portions. The hypnosis took place during the second session. I was apprehensive as to what to expect, however I found it a very relaxing experience. I was aware of my surroundings the whole time, and as I relaxed, seemed to sink into the couch, becoming part of it, and not caring that there may be noises coming from outside. Afterwards, I relaxed on the lounger whilst Kay recorded the reinforcing disc, and once again had that carefree feeling.

The next day I was so busy I forgot all about the hypnosis, and what had actually happened, and was not aware of what or how much I was eating. Once the day calmed down, I realised with quite a start that I had actually left food on my plate, and yet felt full, and looking back over the day, I had eaten my normal foods, but each time had felt full after just a few mouthfuls, and was surprised at myself. For the first time in my life I wasn’t afraid of food!! What a revelation - I could eat what I wanted (within reason of course) but not enough to do any damage.

Over the next three sessions Kay took me down the NLP timeline, and we talked about my past, any issues with my self-esteem and how I see myself over the coming months as I lose weight. I play the reinforcing disc most nights once I’m in bed, even when I feel too tired to bother, and find once again I seem to sink into the bed.

I was frightened that once the course finished I would waiver, however I needn’t have worried. The new way of eating is becoming a way of life now, and playing the disc reinforces that message. However the most amazing change for me is the fact that, for the first time in my life, I leave food on my plate if I dish up too much, and leave the table feeling satisfied. No longer full to bursting, and even when out for the day, no longer lured into trailing from tea shop to tea shop.

My weight loss has been gradual and consistent, and I feel it has been money well spent. I also feel I haven’t been cast off into the great unknown without any back up, as I have my disc, and can contact Kay at any time for a top up session if I feel it is necessary. I would certainly recommend this plan to anyone who is battling with their weight. I still have a way to go, but feel confident that I can achieve, and more importantly maintain, my goal weight.

I just wanted to say that meeting you has totally changed my whole outlook - I did say to you in one of our sessions that I had applied to the NHS for a real gastric band, and was upset that I was refused, after I went to appeal. But I can honestly now say that I am so glad that they refused me, as I would of lost weight, but I would still have had the same problem with food, as I still had the same mindset.

Now though, you have made it possible for me to realise that by changing how I think, and putting into practice all that we have done, and realising that I can do this, and most of all believing in myself - nothing is impossible. I eat little and often now as opposed to three meals a day, and this works for me.

I enrolled in my college course yesterday for Floristry, which I start in September, and I am really looking forward to it. I now know that it is never to late to better yourself, and only I can do this, and I will do this!

I will be in touch soon to make an appointment to see you, but until then Kay  - I owe you and my best friend a big thank you for making this possible.
