Why do people become overweight?

1). By eating too quickly - are you always the first to finish? Did you even taste your dinner or did you just shovel it in? Did you enjoy the flavours, texture and aroma of your meal? Do you feed rather than eat? Hypnotherapy will help you slow down your eating and allow you to actually enjoy eating and become an eater rather than a feeder.

2). By eating to compensate for boredom, lack of love, loneliness - do you find yourself reaching for the cookie jar when you have nothing to do, or when you are alone or you have been dumped? Hypnotherapy will enable you to fully understand your emotions, your reactions to them and allow you to break the link that your subconscious has between emotions and food.

3). By eating to reward themselves - had a good day...deserve a treat? Rewarding yourself with food might seem a good idea at the time but will only lead to the pounds piling on. Hypnotherapy will enable you to fully understand why you need to reward yourself and once again break the link that your subconscious has between reward and food.

4). By always clearing their plates - do you ever leave food on your plate? Why not? Don't want to waste it? Was it the way you were taught when young? Do you sit on the settee and just pile the food into your mouth while you watch your favourite soap? Hypnotherapy will help you slow down your eating and allow you to feel the 'stop sign' that tells you when you are full. This factor alone will reduce your food intake dramatically by ensuring that you eat 'consciously'.

5). By skipping meals and eating low fat foods - people who skip meals and eat low fat food are messing around with their metabolism. The brain and the stomach get mixed messages when you eat this way. When eating a low fat yoghurt the brain tells the stomach that there is food on the way, but when it arrives it doesn't produce the satisfaction that was expected. Skipping meals also causes the metabolism to slow down and not process food as efficiently as it should. Hypnotherapy will motivate you to embark upon a regular and healthy eating regime.

6). By overeating to protect themselves - does the thought of attention from the opposite sex cause you to call for a pizza? Is your partner quite happy with your size and a slimmer you could be a temptation to stray? Do you find yourself yo-yoing when on diets? Hypnotherapy will allow you to explore the root causes of why you eat to protect yourself and allow you to move on and successfully lose weight but permanently this time.

"...amazingly I have left food on my plate for the last 3 days.....something that has never happened before!"  S****

You can see there are many reasons why people become overweight but in almost all cases,  the reasons they began overeating are anchored in their past, some emotional event or trauma that caused them to begin eating for security, self-preservation or protection. The memory of the event remains sealed in their subconscious, even if their conscious mind has forgotten it.

"...I am eating better food only when hungry and am enjoying it more because I actually need it and because I don't have any guilt associated with my eating."   J**
