29 Answers
This has come up before but a couple of weeks ago nearly I had this form of hypnotherapy and so far it seems to be working. I can't eat big meals any more...I've tried but was sick..
I know consciously I haven't had a gastric band but my unconscious is obviously of a different opinion.... its tied in with body image and work on personal relationships with food but I know one or two on here were curious a while back so I thought I'd share

For more on marking an answer as the "Best Answer", please visit our FAQ.about 7 pound so far but its a whole lot more about having some control over food... no forbidden foods if you want cake and chocolate thats fine if you are genuinely hungry but you are also 'guided' to want healthier choices and smaller portions...to take time over food savouring it...and only having as much as you need for fuel basi8cally eating like a slim person....
I serve my food on a small side plate and have a very small bowl for soups and puddings I also try to make each meal last at least 20 mins putting my knife/fork etc down between each mouthful
I might need a top up session in a few months. Its not a matter of fighting it its just relaxing while someone speaks not like the sort of showbiz hypnotism at all.

L-o-l Den, it was an offer off Groupon, I've always been doubtful about hypnotherapy/hypnosis but decided I'd give it a go. I was worried that I actually would 'go under' and blurt out summat like 'you're a con-man'. Fortunately it didn't happen. :o)
Flip, I've never heard of those plates but the chap did recommend I start eating meals off a side-plate.

Hypnotherapy - if delivered by a qualified practitioner - is nothing to be afraid of, it's a therapy which leaves you in control and left me wanting to get on with the matter which was troubling me. It bears no resemblance to stage hypnotism, which confuses some people.
I asked my therapist once what would happen if the fire alarm rang when I was "under" and he reminded me that I knew how quickly he "woke" me at the end of each session, I would just get up and walk out.
There is no sensation of being someone else or not knowing what you are doing - at all times I knew where I was, who he was, it just felt like deep relaxedness.
You have to want to do it - resisting the relaxation makes it almost impossible for you to "go under", though.

I recently had some massage done by a therapist who also does hypnotherapy - she did have a voice that you listened to and when she was doing the massage on me, I did feel kinda relaxed, but it didn't last, as I don't stop rabbiting...(:o((
Mrs C. I know what you mean about blurting stuff out, when I had a sedation at the dentist, I arrived home with a bag full of teeth, yuk, what the bloody hell has happened here. When I rang the dentist surgery, they said I kept shouting, 'I want to take some teeth home'............so they obliged.. (:o/
