Nearly everyone trying to lose weight will consider dieting at some point. However, most dieters rarely achieve long-term success. This is because it can be difficult
to stick to a diet and stay on track with a weight loss plan. However, there are other options for people trying to lose weight.
Unlike a diet, hypnotism for weight loss will help motivate you to eat naturally
healthier and exercise more. Here, I will discuss some popular diet plans, the keys to real weight loss, and how you can achieve weight loss through hypnosis.
The high numbers of searches for free diet programs and free online diet plans show just how many of us are interested in losing weight. Some well-known diet plans are:
The Atkins diet, which is a popular low carbohydrate diet. It is based on the limited consumption of "refined carbohydrate" foods such as sugar and white bread. By restricting carbohydrate intake, this diet is supposed to help the body switch from burning carbohydrates for energy to burning fat (a process called ketosis).
The
Ornish diet is an extremely low fat, vegetarian diet. It is a completely
vegetarian diet, and when followed correctly, only 10% of total calorie intake
will come from fat. The Ornish diet also strongly encourages exercise and
stress-management, and has been used successfully to help reverse heart disease
in many people.
The
Suddenly Slim diet program consists of taking diet pills and meal
replacement shakes in hopes of increasing the body's metabolism to burn more
calories. The products contain many herbal ingredients typically found in diet
pills. The Suddenly Slim diet is supposed to work without increasing exercise or
making other major lifestyle changes, although exercise and healthier eating
will increase results.
The
Zone diet balances fat, carbohydrate, and protein intake, with 30% of
calories coming from fat, 40% from carbohydrates, and 30% from protein. Like the
Atkins diet, this diet is often considered to be "low carb." The Zone
diet pays close attention to calorie intake and physical exercise to deliver
results.
The
Cabbage soup diet can be found in many free online diet plans and is
largely considered to be a fad diet. It consists of eating only low calorie
cabbage soup for a week. Following this program may lead to a few pounds of
weight loss, but when you resume normal eating habits, the weight will come
back. In addition, continuing this unbalanced free diet plan for longer than a
week may lead to poor nutrition and poor health.
There are hundreds if not thousands of diet
programs all promising fast results, but what many of these popular diet
plans claim is not what they actually offer. They include meal plans that are
irregular, unsustainable over a long-term period, or downright unhealthy. The
truth is permanent weight loss is rarely achieved through a short, one-time diet
session.
Successful dieters will tell you that the keys to success are not in fad
diets or even free diet programs, but in portion control, selecting healthy and
satisfying foods, and exercising regularly. This sounds simple enough, but it
can be hard to stay motivated to keep healthy habits and undo years of bad
dietary choices.
We often lose our motivation
to exercise and eat right. Hypnosis can be used to change our bad habits and
lack of motivation. Hypnotherapy weight loss programs work by tapping into the
power of the unconscious mind to motivate you to exercise and treat your body
right.
Even the best free diet plans will not work if they are not followed through.
Research shows that most diets fail because dieters simply cannot stick to them.
After years of eating oversized portions, many of us are driven to overeat and
our appetites are out of control. This is where hypnotism for weight loss can be
especially effective. Hypnotherapy weight loss programs are highly successful in
helping to regulate food cravings and control the appetite.
For many people, another key to weight
loss is stress
management. Many of us are emotional eaters. We eat in response to
our feelings, such as when we are sad or angry. This emotional attachment to
food can make it easy to gain weight. We can use hypnotism for weight loss to
develop alternative strategies for managing our stress and break the habit of
associating food with our emotions.
It is easy to learn hypnosis by yourself with a good self
hypnosis program. There are weight loss hypnosis CDs specifically developed
to promote weight loss through hypnosis. With simple techniques from my weight
loss hypnosis CD programs, you can stop struggling to lose weight and become
naturally motivated to shed pounds.

B. Densky, CH has been a successful consulting hypnotist since 1978 when he
opened the Center For Applied Hypnosis. Later on he went on to also receive
certification in NLP, a sort of "space-age" hypnotherapy which relies
on training the unconscious mind to use the same thought patterns it uses to
create problems, to eliminate them.
