Weight Loss Hypnosis – Event Dieting: Why It Doesn’t Work And How To Stop.
Event Dieting: Why It Doesn’t Work And How To Stop.
Event Dieting: That’s what we call any upcoming occasion for which you don’t feel you look good enough. And guess what? Event dieting doesn’t work! Oh, you may lose the weight for the event, however since you just set your goal for a brief period, the weight will soon return. And frequently its friends – more pounds – will show up with it.
That’s because the weight loss was the exception to your lifestyle, not the rule.
Often Event Dieting is doomed before your event. You plan to lose the weight and your resistance pops up at the most inopportune times and you just can’t seem to motivate yourself. That’s when you brain begins to allow you to see yourself in a better light, instead of dieting.
It sounds some like this: “I guess I don’t look too bad. I could probably afford an outfit in a larger size just for this special occasion.” Sound familiar?
Want to stop this destructive behavior?
Here’s how:
We frequently know when special events are coming well in advance of the occasion.
Unfortunately, we learned very early on to procrastinate and wait until we’re right up against it to actually take action
Remember cramming for tests in school? Same thing.
Instead of doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results (the definition of insanity!), try a saner, more practical approach for the next event at which you want to look fabulous.
Actually, you could begin today, right now. Then when the event occurs, you won’t need to change one thing about yourself. Wouldn’t that be nice?
One reason it might be difficult to begin-and stay with-a healthy lifestyle is that so many Americans have become accustomed to immediate gratification and results. We want it all NOW.
And if we can’t lose 5 pounds in the next few hours, then we’ll eat a candy bar. But something had to make us feel better right now. Recognizing that this sort of thinking may be a part of your make up is the first step toward changing it.
To be slender and live that lifestyle, it behooves us to learn what those who have mastered that behavior know.
Delayed gratification is a skill that many slender people seen t

o have mastered. The next time you feel hungry, wait for a few minutes before eating. Waiting too long can lead to low blood sugar and the tendency to overeat, so make it a short period of time. Just play with it a bit. You want to interrupt the automatic responses that may have been leading to overeating or eating when you’re not really hungry. Creating the habit of delayed gratification requires that you be present and conscious more than you may be accustomed to. Listening to a hypnosis tape during your day will help you accomplish this awareness and patience. Ironically, many people believe that hypnosis make you unconscious. Actually, the opposite is true: Hypnosis and hypnotists help you relax to become more conscious so that you can decide who you want running your life-you or that doughnut!
Another way to insure that you will never again event diet is to simply become more active in you daily life. Remember, the most difficult step in going for a walk is the first one. After that, those steps become easier and easier.
Often people who are out of shape claim that exercise hurts. If this is the case, check with a physical therapist to learn what movements you can do that you will be able to do. There’s always something. You many even discover that as you move your body more and more, the aches and pains diminish and you are able to move your body more and more!
One of the dangers of going on a diet is that at some point you will be going off the diet. A diet by definition has a beginning, a middle and an end. No diet can teach you how to keep weight off when you return to your old eating patterns-which, being a human, you most likely will do. The best advice about dieting is don’t do it. It hasn’t worked so far in keeping weight off and remember our definition of insanity!
To prepare well in advance for you event, begin now to eat less food in general. To do this, eat a bite of protein with everything you eat and be sure you have some protein in the morning. Just eating protein in the morning can reduce the grazing throughout the day and especially at nighttime grazing. If you eat just 100 calories less per day at the end of the year you will have lost at least 12 pounds! Doesn’t that sound easy?
Your body is like a bank, in that the calories you deposit into it will accumulate unless you make withdrawals, which is your physical activity. It’s quite simple really. Just withdraw more then you deposit and you will be ready year round for any and every special event.
Now we just need to figure out why we never have any clothes to wear and what are we going to do with this hair!

Hypnosis for weight loss helps individuals to lose weight and keep it off by zeroing in on the reasons that underlie the overeating habit and the lack of control that is a part of the overall problem.
If this describes you then you’re not alone. If you’ve looked to diet companies in the past for help then you’ve probably discovered just following a meal plan or taking pills may help short-term but long-term rarely keeps the pounds off.
Simply popping a diet pill is not a solution for all of the emotional reasons that people eat too much. It is not only the craving but why the desire to eat more food than you need that is the real issue, and this is what weight loss hypnosis seeks to address.
DELVING DEEP TO UNDERSTAND DESIRES:
Unlike much of the diet industry which just produces a quick fix to start the weight loss process, hypnosis delves deeper into the subconscious mind. Once there, it uncovers the reason(s) why the individual desires certain kinds of foods and why they overeat.
Understanding the reasons why we overeat can lay the foundation to successful weight loss and unlike a diet pill, the benefits are long-term!
Through using hypnosis not only can the patient’s causes for overeating be discovered and eventually resolved, but the hypnotist can plant suggestions in the subconscious that will help to fight the cravings when they occur, and continue to fight them until they are gone for good.
POSITIVE AFFIRMATIONS OF HYPNOSIS:
Imagine for a moment having your very own life coach with you 24/7 and providing you with positive and uplifting thoughts. That is exactly what hypnosis can do for you. It can provide you with the daily affirmations you need to have healthy thoughts as opposed to negative ones. This can keep you on the track to losing weight and feeling great!
When hypnotized, the subject’s mind is placed in a state that is very open to suggestion allowing for ideas to be introduced that might otherwise be completely ignored. You might be told that the prospect of a walk is more appealing than the thought of a Big Mac.
Hypnosis works by modifying the triggers in your mind that left unchanged keep the pattern of your bad habits alive. By changing the way you think, and react, to certain situations, hypnosis boosts confidence and quells irrational fears that may lead you towards the bad habits that encourage weight gain in the first place.
USING HYPNOSIS TO ERADICATE THE ROOT CAUSE OF OVER-EATING:
Weight issues can be deeply rooted in painful experiences that occurred in the past. Hypnosis is a multi-layered therapy being capable of taking the unconscious mind to events causing barriers to weight loss and eradicating them by releasing an individual from those same experiences.
The experiences are what cause a person to perform bad habits; which are a way of masking true feelings and emotional problems. Healing both the inside and the outside is the most likely route to long-term success.
The eating habits you adopt throughout your lifetime must become a solid state of mind to which you’re willing to adhere. Changing your lifestyle and addressing the real issues can pave the way to true success at shedding pounds and keeping them gone!
Weight loss hypnosis is a solution that assists people in losing weight and keeping the weight off by finding out what caused them to overeat in the first place. Once the reasons can be brought out into the light and worked through, then the individual can discover a newer and more productive manner of living their healthiest life possible!
And who can argue with that outcome.
