Hypnosis for Weight Loss
REASONS WEIGHT LOSS CAN BE DIFFICULT
We can be healthy at a variety of shapes and sizes and weight management is personal. If our weight is causing unhappiness or issues with our health and we’re not sure where to start, help is available. It’s important to address the mental and physical elements of weight loss together for long term weight loss accompanied by a healthy mindset around food.
Many of us have turned to calorie control diets or ‘slimming clubs’ to lose weight and found that we are stuck in a cycle of losing and gaining. A study by the NCBI found that 85% of people on WeightWatchers plans were unsuccessful at staying at or below their target weight in the 5 years post-diet. ‘Slimming clubs’ tend to restrict certain foods and create unhealthy labels for ‘good’ or ‘bad’ foods. The main reason these plans fail is that restriction can lead to binge eating which not only makes us gain weight but also internalises the belief that we are ‘bad’ because we’ve eaten ‘bad’ foods.
