Hi Ladies,
I have been reading your posts with interest and thought it was about time I joined in. Hope thats ok? I have been seeing a hypnotherapist for 5 weeks now and had my band fitted last week.
So far I have lost 8lbs
4lbs the 1st week then 1 each week since. Not a very fast weight loss but im happy with this. As I have found it really easy and dont feel like im on a diet
I really feel that my relationship with food has changed. I am now only eatting when Im hungry and my portion sizes had reduced even before the 'band' was fitted. I just hope to carry on the same way as I have been a yoyo dieter for years
Looking forward to keeping an eye on how your all getting on.

welcome tulip , its great to hear from someone else whos following this path . i think this is the key ingredient if you will for any one using this method , the dramatic change with youre relationship with food , ive said to mu oh if it took 3 years to get where i need to be then i really will be ok with that as im playing for life this time , no more diets no more upping and downing , just a continuous downward slope , howeverlong that takes .
patience is definately not my thing so this is a massive change in my thinking :0) but , hey if 39 years on this earth and 26 of them dieting has got me into this state then carrying on in this vein is just not going to bring the long term changes im looking for .
definition of madness. doing thge same thing again and again but expecting a different result !!!!
time to make that change :0) xx
good luck ladies , may we all be strong enough to break those dieting bonds xx

Thats exactly how I feel. If I continue to loose 1lb a week 12 months from now I will be 52lbs lighter
, and to be honest I would be delighted to have lost even half of that because it would be way more than I have ever managed before, and im usually gaining about 1lb a month .I also dont want to pass on any unhealthy attitudes to body image and dieting to my daughter who is 1. So it feels like this is the right time to not just loose weight but change my attitute to food. Before she becomes old enough to be aware of it.

That's exactly what it is. We are, by nature, programmed to eat only when hungry but influences and circumstances alter our relationship with food. It really is just going back to basics. Babies cry to be fed only when they are hungry and stop feeding when they are full and that's how we should continue (without the crying!)

so true , just shows how badly damaged we get by diets.
my mum put me on my 1st at 13 , been fighting ever since..... the awefull thing looking back is that i wasnt even particularly big . but i look at my mum at 60 still dieting and convincing herself she doesnt eat anything much whilst depriving herself the rest of the time and i think , oh christ no !!! so ive made the choice to stop and get off the diet train and walk a different way :0)
