According to the Research--Absolutely

Over 65% of all Americans are overweight, and despite a weight loss industry that cashes in to the tune of billions of dollars per year, Americans are putting on more pounds each and every year.  So what's the best answer to slimming down?  A number of research projects over the past twenty years have consistently shown that hypnosis is more effective in helping people lose weight and maintain weight loss than other methods.  Here are the results of a few of those research projects:

“Both hypnosis groups lost an average of 17 pounds in six months. The control group put on half a pound.”  (Hypnotherapy in weight loss treatment--Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 1986)

109 17-67 year olds completed a behavioral treatment for weight management either with or without the addition of hypnosis. Results show that, at the end of the 9-week program, both interventions resulted in significant weight reduction. However, at 8-month and 2-year follow-ups, the hypnosis subjects showed significant additional weight loss, while those in the behavioral-treatment-only group exhibited little further change. More subjects who used hypnosis also achieved and maintained their personal weight goals.  (Effectiveness of hypnosis as an adjunct to behavioral weight management--Journal of Clinical Psychology, 1985)

How Hypnosis Helps You Lose Weight

The reason you can lose weight more effectively with hypnosis and maintain that weight loss is because hypnosis uses your subconscious mind to change your habits and your attitudes toward food.  Your subconscious mind can deal directly with the self-sabotaging part of you to help you eliminate poor, unhealthy eating patterns and replace them with new, positive, powerful patterns than help you lose weight and keep it off.  Your subconscious mind has the power to end your struggles with food and weight loss and can help you learn to be in control of your cravings. 

The best hypnosis weight loss programs are those that are comprehensive in nature.  These programs can help you deal with emotional eating patterns that many of us have but are unaware of.  A good hypnosis weight loss program in conjunction with a good diet and exercise program can certainly give you a great opportunity to lose weight and keep it off.
