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've downloaded it but it's now asking me to subscribe either £2.99 a month or £34.99 for a year

I got the EasyLoss one for a flat fee of £6, or thereabouts. The 12 Weeks To Wow is a special program they're promoting via the FB group, I think. Just start with the basic EL one, that's what most people seem to use, me included.

Thanks @Makemineboozefree I'll start with the Easyloss one

Hi there, i downloaded this a week ago and am down 4lbs. Delighted. It has been a revelation. I knew all the rules about only eating when hungry, mindfully etc etc but found them impossible to.follow. Its so easy when using the app and has become 2nd nature very very quickly. I cant quite believe it and its early days I know.

Well done Chocolatepeanuts, that's brilliant! I weighed myself this morning and I'm down 3lbs. That's from starting last Thursday! I'm finding it a revelation as well. I've been trying to embrace mindful eating for a while now but have lacked the willpower to keep at it. This app has been the trigger for it to finally click into place. As you say, it very quickly becomes second nature!

Thanks for resurrecting this thread makemine.
Well done to you and chocolatepeanuts on your weight loss so far!

I'm on here somewhere, probably quite near the beginning, under my old MN account. I used the app for a few nights when I first got it but then went off to some other diet and had completely forgotten about this method. .

I've just checked and I'm still in the FB group although not looked at the page for years so I'll go over there and have a mooch round, I'm getting desperate to lose quite a lot of weight but nothing has worked for me so far.

Welcome back LaBurraRioja! Did you lose any weight first time round? I'm amazed how how easy I've found it so far - the urge to eat healthy food doesn't feel at all forced like it does with other diets.

Thanks Makemine ! I lost a few pounds but only stayed with it for about 10 days. I read the Guidelines again before lunch and whilst eating lunch I remembered the main reason that I gave up last time. Eating slowly is hard!

I have the original app which is called 'Easy Loss Virtual Gastric Band Hypnosis.
I was just looking at the 12 Weeks to Wow too but for now I'll stick with the one I have.

I need to read back through the whole thread to find my original post on here. I wish I'd stuck with it as I weigh at least 1st more now than I did back then.

A few lbs in only ten days sounds like a great start, LaBurraRioja! I haven't noticed the slow chewing being an issue, but putting my knife and fork down between mouthfuls takes some getting used to! It's the original Easy Loss VGB one that I'm using - the 12 Week To Wow feels too much like a diet regime for me and at the moment I want to steer clear of those.

I know what you mean about sticking with this one - every time I follow a traditional diet I end up heavier than when I started, and more.

How's everyone getting on?

How's everyone getting on?

Are you people still doing Easyloss ? I ask because I'm thinking of buying the app and would like your views on wether I should or not ?
