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?

It's a weird feeling isn't it, as if you've just switched off or zoned out or something? I'll try it again tonight and see if it happens again! Success story wise - I seem to have resisted eating any biscuits in the staff room today which is fairly unheard of. Wasn't even really trying, I just didn't even look in the biscuit barrell!

Well done wash that's great.

Well I felt hungrier today than yesterday but didn't snack or anything. Just found it easy to wait.

I've now lost two stone (in six weeks :o)
I've completely given up sugar in tea.
I've listened to the third session twice now, yesterday I didn't feel any different, and ate how I have been doing. Today though, I had an omelette for lunch, and had to leave half of it, then I had steak tonight, and again had to leave half of it - I just couldn't physically eat any more!

I really can't believe how well this is working!

wow you guys!!! this is amazing. I'm so glad I found this thread. you totally inspired me and I'm downloading the app as we speak :)

I'll report back after listening tonight.

here's hoping it works!! can't wait to meet you all properly. I'll message a proper introduction tomorrow as its rather late now x

I bought this two nights ago after reading reviews on here but really struggling to relax to her voice - Im not sure how to describe it, but my brain feels too stimulated when listening to it vs the soft hushed voice of Paul McKenna (I have one of his, not diet one, dunno which though as I always fall asleep v quickly. Maybe its his sleep one )

Ive tried turning volume down as low as I can on the app, while still hearing it, but no difference.

Had no appetite for a few days prior due to illness so cant really tell yet if its working or not

2lbs off in three days!

I fell asleep while listening last night, what if I didnt put healthy food on my table?

I listened to it whilst drunk last night, will it have gone in?

Im also having difficulty deciding what diet to stick to. if I low carb (which works for me) it goes against what the hypnosis is telling me. Its not exactly choosing the healthy foods that are good for me.

I'm 5 days in and had lost 3 pounds a couple of days ago- havent re weighed myself, will do so on Monday.
I nearly always fall asleep but manage to come round at the end, it's lovely and relaxing.
I am hungry but I have made the right food choices, normally I give in to hunger and make toast or snack crisps, cereal etc.
I am drinking so much water and actually craving it - weird I normally dring tea.
I am a person who needs to lose at least 3 stone, constantly being fed up about my weight but never actually have the will power to stick to a diet.I am forever joining clubs and stopping going or never really addressing the problem- that I eat to much. Eg slimming world I do green days and eat and eat pasta, potato because I can not because I am hungry!

This feels different, my sub conscious is in charge , early days but a big thumbs up from me :)

TheNightwatch, I am low carbing and haven't found any conflict. There is nothing unhealthy about meat cheese eggs fish and veg, and lots healthy about avoiding sugar, processed foods etc etc. And I reckon surely it is always healthier to lose weight (29lbs and counting for me)!

I was reading another thread and someone mentionned mybodygallery.com. I have never looked at it before but what an eyeopener! I highly recommend it, very inspiring to get an idea of what you will look like when you lose 10, 20, 50 or more pounds.

I didn't fall asleep last night so I heard all the stuff about the table and the water etc. I think i was so determined to stay awake that i couldn't relax enough. Don't know if that's impacted on how well it's working though!

I can't think about cheese being healthy as it is the worse thing according to weight watchers. I need to cut the booze out that's my main goal. Not easy when I'm out three nights on the trot this weekend

Well I too jumped on the gastric bandwagon (geddit?) and bought it purely on what it's done for Glastocat.

You are amazing Glastocat!!

I need to lose at least 3 stone....

Ok, so maybe the cheese isnt so great (although in small amounts I see no harm TBH), but meat fish eggs veg and no sugar or processed foods is all very healthy stuff. I actually have no problem with cheese, I think its real food and so bound to be better for you than all the crappy articial low fat gubbins that weightwatchers tells you is good to eat (yes I know they encourage food and veg etc too, but the weightwatchers food products are dire IMO. Anyway, thats my two cents!

And toofattoorun thank you! I'm feeling pretty good today as I reckon I'll hit 30lbs off tomorrow - woohoo! That will be in 53 days, not bad at all! Lots to loose still though!

artificial
weightwatchers also encourage good food, not just food, FFS! [grin}

I wrote a long sad post on the FB page about following this and breast feeding.
My supply has dropped, particularly since starting the third session.
I've decided I'm going to make sure I have porridge for breakfast, and add more carbs to my other meals, and have a couple of oatcakes mid-morning and mid-afternoon.
Thought I'd run it by you all and see what you thought.
I'm paranoid about getting back into old ways!

Be careful Clicky. Did Sue come up with any answers for you on the FB page? Sounds like a problem for the expert to me. Good luck. How old is your baby?

She suggested I speak to my GP and HV. Ds is 17 months, and I know for a fact they'll encourage me to stop being weird feeding him.

I've sent a message to Analytical Armadillo, so hopefully there'll be some advice there.

I can't give up listening, as I don't want to go back to where I was, but I'm trying to be sensible and eat a bit more (I never thought I'd hear myself say that! :o), and stop low-carbing.

The weird thing is, I feel great in myself, and don't feel hungry at all, but my portion sizes are now tiny compared to the giant mountains I had before!

30Ibs in 53 days? That's the most amazing weight loss!
I listened to it today and fell asleep! Must. Try. Harder.

I am going abroad for six weeks and I am worried that I will drop a dress size whilst I am away and will be stuck without clothing!!!

Have some advice from analytical armadillo - someone thought I was advertising the app :o I think my reports were too glowing!

could someone tell me the actual name of the app! please

does the app only work on apple phones? can you get an mp3 version? i have found it in app store are there other formats- ive googled but there seems to be lots of different ones? cna anyone help?
