How to deal with the cause of the symptom





Lifestyle affects how we put on weight. This interesting chart was developed by Dr Sharma of the University of Alberta.


His view is that being overweight is the clue to the symptom which is overeating. What is it a symptom of?
(By the way, he means coping patterns, not copying patterns.)


Understanding why we follow these eating, exercise and coping patterns is the start to regaining control. Hypnotherapy can help you find out the cause of the symptom, and then help you deal with it.

Don't drink your calories

The excellent Dr Sharma of the University of Alberta has pointed to research from Purdue University which shows that calories taken in a drink do not register with our brains as a meal. We feel just as hungry as if we had taken no calories at all. Some of these drinks can be as much as 200 calories - 10% of our daily allowance.

For calories to register, they need to be in solid food.

If you are wanting to lose weight, the easiest thing to give up is calorie filled drinks, such as fizzy drinks, and it could help you lose one pound a week.
