Hypnosis and weight loss

How many of us struggle with weight issues, for whatever reasons. How many times to we embark on a diet, succeed for a short while, to just fall back to the old levels after we stop dieting. How often do we look into the mirror and sigh with a longing for less weight.

Just read this:
"A year ago, Malcolm weighed 22 stone/140 Kilos and considered himself “obese.” Today, 12 months on from attending Richard Krijgsman’s Hypnotic Slimming Seminar in London, he is healthy, physically active and still maintaining his ideal weight. "

It is possible and hypnosis can help tremendously to keep weight down. However, please be aware that there are reasons why the subconscious mind reacts in certain ways. If you are overweight, your subconscious mind believed, at one point of time, that it is good to eat more, to put on weigth. It only didn't realise that this period is over, that this "protection" is no longer needed.

It is still possible that there is a gain in eating more or being overweight. This is what is called secondary gain in NLP. What are the gains in something that is perceived negatively. For example, when you smoke, it can be that you also feel more confident with the cigarettes around.

Only if there is a solution, a compensation to the secondary gain will it be possible to really solve the issue - once and for all.
