Finally! The Weight Loss Solution That Works!

By: Karen Dimmick CHt, PhD(c)

Stress has been shown to be a major cause of weight gain and strategies to control stress may just be one of the best tools for long term weight reduction out there!

Hypnosis and meditation are among the best ways to reduce stress and therefore help you get rid of that excess weight for good.

Researchers from UCSF have discovered that 24 hours after activating the stress-response system, the hormone cortisol that is produced causes pleasure-seeking behavior, including indulging in high-calorie foods, which ultimately results in abdominal obesity.

If you can keep your stress related events to once in a blue moon, there is no problem with this, because your body naturally deals with the cortisol over time. However, if you keep experiencing stressful events, the system becomes chronically over excited and ceases to cope.

Since most of us live in cities where we have to commute to work, or we’re at home with the kids throwing tantrums, or we’ve got school exams just round the corner, we experience stress on a very regular basis.

So How To You Manage Stress And Lose That Excess Weight For Good?
Well exercise, relaxation techniques and baths are all great ways to manage your stress, however, hypnosis and meditation can help you mange the stress, as well as get to the root cause of the stress and help you lose weight.

Diets are the most well known way to lose weight, however they if they don’t help you change your eating habits permanently, then they can only possibly have short term effects. And everyone knows that yo-yo dieting can seriously mess up your metabolism and make it even harder to lose weight.

The Dateline Weight Loss Challenge
Dateline did a weight loss challenge, where they demonstrated that hypnosis was the most effective way to lose weight without side effects and keep it off for good.

6 people on 6 different weight loss systems (Hypnosis, Weight Watchers, Slim Fast, Atkins, extreme exercise and weight loss coach Jorge Cruise) had a variety of results as well as side effects to some of the diets.

The participant with the most impressive record was Marc, who used hypnosis to lose 13 pounds in a single week without any suffering and actually found doing exercise not only easy but enjoyable. He developed a greater love for healthy, nutritious food which helps him keep the weight off.

Other results included Lynne, who limited herself to 1300 calories a day, while training for a marathon. She lost 6 pounds in the first month, 8 pounds the month after when she increased her daily calorie intake to 1600, and then injured her knee.

Mark used the Slim Fast diet with light exercise, gained 3 pounds in the first week, finally lost 5 pounds in the first month, but was so hungry all the time he was ready to give up.

Kathy followed the Weight Watchers plan limiting herself to 20 points a day and starving herself most days to allow for some wine in the evening. She lost 10 pounds in the first month, then went on holiday, forgot the diet and was in for the usual dieter’s frustration.

Eleanor used the weight loss coach Jorge Cruise, doing 8 minutes of exercise a day and lost 13 pounds in the first month.

Rick followed the Atkins diet and while he managed to drop 13 pounds in the first two weeks, he ended up with a painful case of gout and had to tone back on the diet.

Dateline’s objective look at a variety of diets and weight loss systems showed that hypnosis is a painless and effective weight loss program that helps people program their minds to feel good, desire healthy food and exercise and lose weight naturally without any side effects.

Hypnosis
If you want to lose weight, even if you’ve not managed it before, stress relief and hypnosis have been proven to be the way to go!

Fad diets, goals and determination just aren’t enough. I’m sure you remember the hunger pangs of various diets and wondered if it was worth it.

With hypnosis, stress relief and a holistic system where you eat whenever you’re hungry it is possible to lose all your excess weight and keep it off forever!
