How do I calculate by Body Mass Index (BMI)?

The Hypno-Band weight loss system has been shown to be incredibly effective at helping people who have failed to get ordinary weight loss systems and diets to work for them.

HOWEVER, Hypno-Band Treatment is NOT a miracle cure, the people who succeed using this system are those who are DETERMINED to lose the weight and recognise that they MUST take responsibility.

Your Hypno-Band weight loss treatment sessions will address many facets of your eating habits and together, we will help you to make PERMANENT changes to those habits so that you can finally achieve that slim body you’ve always dreamed of!

Initial Consultation

The Initial consultation is all about us understanding your current situation, your current weight, your target weight, what your emotional “triggers” are and how you respond to those triggers

We will be looking at your current and prior medical conditions to ensure that we take full account of these within the programme.

By the time we have gone through this detailed intake Session you will already be thinking differently about the WAY that you eat and your relationship with food!

Treatment Session one - “Changing Habits”

Session ONE really gets into the details of your “habitual eating” (This is the snacking that you do without really THINKING about it). Together we will formulate some “sensible” alternative reactions to your emotional triggers and you will experience your first wonderfully relaxing Hypnosis Session during which we will give you some post-hypnotic suggestions for your new responses to snacking!

You will be visualising yourself at your target weight using your “Slimming Mirror” and you will also begin to feel your stomach beginning to shrink down in size!!

During the next week you can expect to feel quite different about your food and about your own personal control over food which is reinforced by CD one which we provide at this point.

Treatment Session Two - “Preparation For Surgery”

Session TWO is held roughly one week after session ONE

We will measure your progress to date, weigh you, examine your Daily Food Diaries and thought processes that you will have recorded, show you an animated version of how a Real Gastric Band is fitted under Surgical conditions, and prepare you for the Surgical Session at treatment session THREE

You will have another session of Hypnosis in which you will decide who both your Surgeon and Anaesthetist are going to be when you have your virtual gastric band fitted!

Treatment Session Three - “Surgery Session”

Session THREE is held approximately one week after session TWO

Again, we measure your progress so far (by now you can reasonably expect to have lost about 6-7 lbs. (Research on Hypno-Band clients shows a National average weight loss of 3 lbs per week.) Once again we will examine how much your thinking has changed. Thinking and behaving differently to food is now starting to become your NEW HABIT and before long your new relationship with food will be “automatic”.

Its now time for your Surgery Hypnosis - Whilst under Hypnosis you will hear the sounds of the Hospital as well as the Surgery Team as they perform your Keyhole surgery to fit your Gastric Band and adjustment port.

Many people report being able to “feel” their stomach getting smaller and tighter during this session!

Your work-pack contains your Post Operative Diet sheets which tell you, in detail, the way to adapt your eating to your new Virtual Gastric Band.

Treatment Session Four - “Band Adjustment”

Session FOUR is held a few weeks after the Surgery Treatment Session so that you have a chance to become used to your new “habitual eating style”.

At this stage you may have lost quite a significant amount of weight and your clothes should be getting looser!

Based on your experience of the last few weeks you may opt to either have your Virtual Gastric Band tightened or possible loosened if you are losing weight too quickly.

This is the last time you will see us for your Hypno-Band Treatment Sessions, but we hope that you decide to keep in touch with us and let us know when you achieve your Target Weight.
