I decided to see a hypnotherapist to help me lose some of my baby weight.
Now don't get me wrong, hypnotherapy has worked for me in the past, including hypnoconception and self hypnosis. I'm studying NLP so I know a bit about it too.
So I booked in to see our local hypnotherapy at the alternative dangly crystals and lentil centre (it's not called that but you get the idea what they are like) and in walks the therapist.
He's at least five stone overweight and has a COMBOVER. I know this is hugely shallow, but I could not concentrate on someone giving me suggestions of how to lose weight without thinking 'clearly this doesn't work for you then'.
As well as 'oh FFS CUT YOUR FRICKING HAIR YOU LOOK RIDICULOUS'
As it happens I am pretty sure I can do this weight loss thing on my own now I've worked out that I have to think thin to be thin. (duh!) But would you advertise yourself as 'specialisms include weight control' when clearly you don't do practice what you preach?
Feel free to call me a shallow cow. But honestly, you don't go to the gym and hunt out the trainer eating the cakes do you (except maybe to nick one).
