Shellie Nelson, an executive producer at ABC Action News in Kansas City is documenting her experience with hypnotherapy for weight loss. Here’s an excerpt from the report posted on the ABC site:
More than a month and several sessions later, Shellie says the thoughts planted in her subconscious are changing her behavior.
“I think it’s adjusting my attitude about myself and about food,” Shellie told us.
She added, “I’m not sitting at my desk thinking, ‘Boy, I’d like to go over to the snack machine and grab something real quick’.”
So far, she’s lost more than ten pounds.
“Now I’m just going through my day and when I’m hungry, I stop and eat and I eat something that I want. I don’t just sort of fill myself with whatever happens to be handy,” Shellie explained.
“I’m paying a little bit more attention to myself and taking better care of myself; I’m sleeping better at night and I’m a lot more at peace with things that would sort of bug me a little,” Shellie added.
“It may take a little bit longer to drop some of the weight that I would like to drop; but feeling better is a good exchange for a slower weight loss,” she said.
