Virtual Gastric Band Hypnosis App?!

[cerealqueen]

I've just seen this in the Apple App Store - does anybody know anything about it or tried it? It seems to have good reviews but its not cheap a £7.49!

I need something to control snacking (eating DDs leftovers in particular) and my portions - which are huge. I also need inspiration to lost about a stone in 7 weeks for a wedding in June, for which I need to fit into a dress I last wore 6 years and 2 DCs ago.
Any thoughts? Shall I give it a go?

I find the three tow thing funny too - though I remember very little of what is said after the three toes talk so it must be important!

I listen to it on the iphone speaker, in bed.

Wait to you get on to part two and the bridge that mysteriously turns into a balcony (or vice versa, cant remember).

Thanks JimmyMac for the link! Just ordered - I live in Cyprus so may take some time to be delivered but hopefully they will send me the MP3 link - hope so! I'm raring to go!

I use headphones to listen. I havent fallen asleep during it yet, so it has been fine. Have steak! I want steak now too

Good luck bargainlil :)

Have you all joined the FB support page? They (Sue/James) are quite often on there, and Sue has a live chat coming up soon.

I bought this at the beginning of the week on everyone's recommendation and it's ace. My appetite has just disappeared, I don't really feel like eating. I normally eat a lot, I'm not doing any special dieting along side it, but not wanting to eat a lot is king a huge difference. I don't have the usual diet mentality of I wish I could have a biscuit/ packet of crisps/ full Indian takeaway but I can't. I just don't want to and focus on other things. I also don't fancy a glass of wine in the evening which is a big difference

I've been doing session 2 for 2weeks and when I weighted in this morning I have lost 1stone 1lb in total!! I'm amazed. I haven't needed to diet at all. All I've done is follow the eating habit guidelines they give you when you go to the website help page and I've been following all the advice they give on the FB page too.
I'm starting session 3 tonight- very excited.
Lobster, you should join the FB support page. Sue and James are going to be live on there on Monday evening to answer everyone's questions, it's really good.

I've lost two stone! In seven and a half weeks! I am completely bloody delighted,this app would be a bargain at ten times the price, thanks Sue! I wonder if I can do three stone in three months?

What fantastic stories.

Im only on my third day and, all Ive noticed is that Im drinking loads of water.

I really wish I could lay off the wine though, its really difficult when you are off work and its the weekend.

Thenightwatch I am allowing myself wine on Friday and Saturday's. If I stop losing I will cut that to Friday only. I am not missing it during the week at all,which is not like me.

Ahhhhhh where did that apostrophe come from!

Listened to it for the first time today-really relaxing. Fingers crossed it will work for me.

Fantastic Glasto :o Well done!

I'm a bit stuck on 25lbs this week, despite no snacking etc. I'm sure it'll start to shift again soon. I have noticed though that I'm not thinking "Stuff it, I'll stop" like I did with other diets and I had a standstill week, so it really seems to have changed my mindset.

Hi there can I join in? Just bought the app and listened last night and this morning, am feeling really hopeful. I'm a total Yoyo dieter, tried everything under the sun but always put it back on again! I've just joined the fb group too and I'm loving all the support!

Do you find that some days its harder to go under than others? Im finding the hypnosis abit boring now and I cant focus on what shes saying as my mind is making shopping lists.

Sue says that its fine to let your mind wander.

Allyouneed I was stuck on 25lbs for a week, then dropped three pounds overnight! That seems to be the way my weight loss is going,it's weird but I'm not complaining.

Ah thanks Glasto :) hopefully that'll happen to me!

Sadly today, I fell off the wagon (on the bright side though, I'm still vair fat, and bounced).
I've been helping to organise a fundraising day, which was today. I started the day with my usual breakfast, then a bit later had a bacon butty (oops!), then had a hot dog ( not really any other option, and I was starving, snoot too bothered about that), then ate loads a few chocolates whilst counting money, then had a mug of champagne (which broke a 2.5 year dry spell, and was delicious)
Back to it now though!

I usually read in bed at night - but not at the moment. I have every intention of reading for a while, but as soon as I get near the bed all I want to do is listen to the recording - very relaxing. (Week 1 day 5)

Tonight was my second listen to the first session, I'm sure i remember some things from last night that I don't remember being talked about tonight???? No balconys or bridges so cant have accidentally listened to session 2. Maybe that just means I was really entranced, I didn't think I was but ?? Or maybe I had a snooze lol

Hi every one I am also inspired by all your stories and bought the app last night. I have a lot to lose and have tried many diets but give up all to easily .
I have listened to it twice and am yet to have breakfast, not like me and have been drinking lots of water - I normally prefer tea! :)

Well, I fell off the wagon at work, someone had been to the states and bought a giant bag of peanut butter M and M's. I dont even like M and M's

I easily drunk two litres of water though and Im planning on listening to it in bed. I think if I fall asleep it will be alright. Im finding the first part abit boring to listen to now and I cant concentrate on it as much.

I dont really bother concentrating on it as such, I just kind of let it wash over me. So far thats working for me, so I wouldnt worry about trying to hard when you are listening to it.

I decided to celebrate my two stone off with half a pizza! It was divine, and because I planned it (took a day pondering if it would be worth it!) I didn't regret it one bit! Usually doing that would mean I had fallen off the wagon and it would be bloody murder getting back on the wagon again, but not this time! I had my half pizza for my dinner, and that was a lovely treat, and sufficient. I got straight back on the wagon, so hurrah for me!

I looked back at my diary and realised that I had actually lost two stone in seven weeks, not seven and a half! Now for the next stone! Bring it on....

I started using this app two weeks ago, I lost 3kg the first week and last week I lost 2kg. Last night I had my 'surgery' and my appetite has shrunk again, I really feel full! I fall asleep listening to the app but it still works.

Been shopping and I don't feel like buying my usual naughty foods (chocolates, cheeses, crisps)
I have been logging my food on myfitnesspal.com and doing gentle exercise. So far so good my aim is to lose 3 stone but if I lose a bit more I welcome it :)
