Weight loss is the decrease of bodily fluids, fat, adipose tissues and lean mass leading to a reduction of your body weight. Appetite is a desire to eat and drink for pleasure. It significantly differs from hunger, because hunger is felt when your body doesn�t have enough reserves to sustain itself and therefore calls for nourishment.

Appetite is often mistaken for hunger, but they are two different things with different causes. Hunger is a natural signal that your body needs nourishment and it would be unhealthy to try to fight it. Appetite, however, is mostly triggered by psychological factors and does not respond to any physical need.

Indeed, stimulation of the mouth is a source of comfort and pleasure, which is why some people like to chew gum for example. It is the same reason that might explain why people like to have a cigarette in their mouths, or why they can feel hunger without actually needing to eat.

This comfort and pleasure might be unconsciously sought after by the mind when experiencing a stressful situation, which is why stress and anxiety can often create the urge to eat. Our mind also often unconsciously associates two actions together, so that every time you do one of these actions your brain creates the urge to do the other at the same time. Thus you might feel the urge to eat when around friends, sitting at a table or watching TV. Weight gain is also a common side effect of many drugs.

Even a small appetite problem can be seriously disabling and a potential health hazard. Not only can it make you increasingly self-conscious about your body and appearance, it may endanger your health on the long term. Excessive appetite can cause obesity, respiratory difficulties, musculoskeletal problems, high blood pressure, cholesterol and life threatening conditions such as cancer, diabetes and gallbladder disease.

Having control over your appetite would allow you to easily get back in shape and get significantly healthier. You would not have to constantly worry about dieting anymore, nor about the nutritional properties of your food. You will be able to eat what you want, when you decide to.

Many different drugs claiming to help control appetite or lose weight have been put on the market over the past few years. A lot of these miracle pills will at best only have a placebo effect. Others have shown better results but sometimes had to be withdrawn from the market because of their dangerous side effects. Most of these drugs have a chemical structure similar to that of amphetamines and present the same dangers. But there are also natural ways of achieving weight loss that do not have any adverse effects, such as weight loss through hypnotherapy.

Most people will tell you that only diet or exercise are effective ways of losing weight. This is true to a certain extent, but it is nearly impossible for an active person to stick to a diet or find the time to exercise and it is also hard to find the necessary motivation. Moreover, neither dieting nor exercise can fight the psychological factors triggering appetite. This means they will not reduce your appetite, and that you will have to suffer from this urge to eat all the time, without being able to satisfy it.

This is why weight loss hypnosis has seduced many people trying to lose weight. Weight loss through hypnosis CD's will work on a psychological level and can help you lose your appetite. But hypnotherapy weight loss CD's can also give you the willpower you need to go out and exercise. Through suggestion, weight loss hypnosis will help you find this motivation effortless!
