PARADE – Michael O’Shea had 4 Diet Mistakes on Sunday, January 27, 2008. Michael O’Shea wrote that diet sabotage doesn’t always come in the forms of chocolate layer cake. Some dangerous diet derailers are unexpected.

  1. You’re Not Eating Enough: I see this frequently with weight loss clients. Not only are you slowing down your metabolism but you are setting yourself up to eat too much too fast and grab what ever is available rather than making healthy choices.
  2. You Want a Quick Fix: There are no miracle cures. Diets do not work. You must burn more calories than you take in. At Slender For Life™ clients learn self-hypnosis as one of the tools they use to get to their healthy goal weight and stay there.
  3. You Let Friends and Family Tempt You With Bad Choices: 65% of the U.S. population is overweight. It is abnormal to be at a healthy goal weight. friends and family want you to stay overweight to justify their own behavior.
  4. You’re Skimping on Sleep: There are several theories on this – it may be simply that since you are up longer you just eat more.

Hypnotherapy is a powerful tool that is often misunderstood. Hollywood has portrayed hypnosis as something that causes people to surrender control to the hypnotist.  This myth is so far from the truth. All hypnosis is self-hypnosis. No hypnotherapist can make you do anything you don’t want to do. Hypnosis is the ultimate display of control. Using hypnotherapy, you can avoid these 4 Diet Mistakes and DRABBLE‘s as well!
