New way to lose weight!

Could you use a weight loss program that gets you off the dieting band wagon and onto a comfortable eating regiment that uses real food to achieve your weight loss goals?

Sound impossible? Sound Good? Sound different?

It is, and it's a weight loss program you have not tried. The Palmer Weight Control Program, isn't a diet. You eat regular food, the kind of food you go back to after you blow your diet, the food you already like and crave.

How in the world could I lose weight doing that?

By cutting proportions. That is one of the things hypnosis can support very well. It's actually what all diets are trying to do by cutting down on what you eat but they are doing it with food you hate. With this program you should feel satisfied on half of what you ate before. Half the calories and all the fun and all the satisfaction of eating your favorite foods. Half the calories everyday should help anyone lose weight, right?

What is the catch? I'd eat chocolate cake everyday if you'd let me?

You could, but my clients surprisingly don't. Part of the secret to this program is how you use your favorite foods instead of being controlled by them. Your favorite foods have a psychological pick-me-up which can actually be measured in your brain. I call it the perk you get when you eat something special. Eating, identifying and using these perk foods is the secret ingredient of the Palmer Weight Program.

But I eat bad food, never exercise and I don't like anything that's good for me.

That's OK, and that is where many of my clients are starting from. You might have already learned that switching to diet foods and changing when you eat, only works for a short time. You always come back home eventually, so that is where this program begins. It starts with foods you already eat and shows you how to manipulate your old favorites. This opens the door to adding lower calorie, healthier foods as you go along. You already know what you are suppose to eat, this lets you introduce those foods to your eating style, slowly and comfortably.

With the Palmer Weight Control Program, you start by gaining control over the food that has been your so-called enemy all your life, the stuff you like. The second part of the program uses hypnosis to plug in your weight loss goals and this lets your subconscious direct your eating habits largely using regular food to achieve those goals.

What about exercise? Can you make me exercise?

Exercise even becomes a natural part of achieving your goal for most of my clients but not because you were told to exercise but because it feels like the right thing to do. You are using your minds natural ability to guide you in a positive direction toward the size and shape you want to become. Eventually you begin to eat and exercise the way you need to in order to reach your goal.

Sounds like magic.

It's not voodoo. it's using hypnosis in the way it has been used successfully in dozens of other areas such as sports performance, anxiety, phobias, pain control, etc. You are using hypnosis to plug in your goals and letting your own mind solve the problem, behind the scenes. It's one of the best uses of hypnosis and historically the bread and butter behind most hypnosis applications. (for more info see Why Hypnosis)

But I have used hypnosis before and it didn't work.

I know, and here is why. Every application of hypnosis I am aware of has tried to use hypnosis to try and make dieting work. That's what the client asked for. Aversion is another example of what they tried to force hypnosis to accomplish. You know, make you hate chocolate cake and love spinach and green peas. Nothing is going to make that happen. What you like to eat isn't going to change under any circumstances. Nothing is going to make diets work, including hypnosis.

Why is dieting a dirty word?

I don't want to take any more space than necessary to remind you that study after study in the past forty years has pointed to a better than 90% failure rate in some of the best diets, designed by the most knowledgeable people in the field of nutrition. We wouldn't do anything else that failed 90% of the time yet we still search for the perfect diet. Dieting is temporary, unnatural, sometimes unhealthy and usually uncomfortable. Is it any wonder people hate to diet and can't wait to get off of them.

Diets make me goofy!

Yes, they do. I'm sure you noticed that your personality changes while dieting. The more restrictive the diet the faster you turn into a basket case, right?

THE REASON: All the foods you love have a psychological value (the perk, remember?) attached to them. Candy is reward, cake is celebration and so on. Take away these psychological perks that you get from your favorite foods and you take away a good portion of what keeps you on a even keel and makes you a happy camper.

With the Palmer Weight Control Program you are using those psychological perks that diets ignore and cut you off from. You don't go through the personality changes diets put you through. When you are happy, everyone around you is happy. Your family hates your dieting moods as much as you do, this will be a pleasant change.

What does it cost?

The cost for two hypnosis visits at the Palmer Smoking Clinic and a CD of the second visit to continue using the program after you see me is only $275.00 (see Prices for more details)

While I always prefer to work directly with my clients, it's not always possible especially if you don't live in the Chicago area. That's why I offer to make you a hypnosis CD for $250.00 that you can order. It's got all the good stuff, you just don't get all the benefits of two office visits. Like any of my CD programs you need to be a good follower of directions, you can't do it your way and expect to succeed and you need to listen to the CD on a regular basis.
