Phone Coaching for Weight Loss
Alice attended two of my Hypnosis weight
loss groups, and then after a few weeks
she started slipping back to her old eating and self-critical thought patterns.
We began a series of short phone
coaching sessions; She called me on her way home
from work a few times a week for a couple of weeks. We worked
out a plan, which included
her maintaining a range of weight. When she found herself at
the highest number in the range;
she began consciously using her 10-second self hypnotic tool
for instant gratification whenever she got the urge to binge,
cheat or found herself thinking about the 'issue' excessively.
She calls for tweaking and/or
support less frequently now but likes the idea of help being so accessible.
Her weight has stayed within her range and her negative
thinking has been at a minimum for five months now.
She says it is the longest time in her adult life, (41 years)
that she has been able to accomplish this.
My thought is that if she can keep it going
for a year, she is on her way to establishing a permanent
change in her attitude toward food, her body and her self-image.
Alice's strategy might not be right for you
but I am reasonably sure that if you call me,
we can work together to get you started on your personal plan.
