Virtual Gastric Band Hypnosis

You can have a new relationship with food for the Holidays!

No Deprivation No Denial

Virtual Gastric Band hypnosis is a non-surgical technique developed by Sheila Granger in the UK that works by conditioning the client to believe on a subconscious level that a gastric band has been placed around the top portion of the stomach, creating a small size pouch.

It doesn’t take long to feel comfortably full this way. As the client becomes use to not being hungry they have new freedom to make choices that lead to the weight loss they desire.

During the 6 session process the client will determine what factors play a role in their food intake, ways to change those behaviors and develop and maintain new healthy eating habits.

Virtual Gastric Band hypnosis provides the benefits of weight loss surgery but without the risk of an invasive procedure and recovery time.

It is a lifestyle change.

It is a new way of life, not a diet.

Announcing the result of the recent Virtual Gastric Band Hypnosis study
Discount on upcoming 6- session Virtual Gastric Band group starting in January.

Hypnotherapist, Jane Conboy recently completed a study that helped a group of 23 out of 24 people to lose a total of 226 lbs in 4 weeks. She used a hypnotic weight loss system, which incorporates the Virtual Gastric Band, developed by UK clinical hypnotherapist Sheila Granger.

Following training with Ms. Granger, Jane Conboy conducted the study at Asha Integrative Wellness in NE Portland in July 2011.

The Virtual Gastric Band is designed for people who desperately want to lose weight but either don’t want surgery or don’t qualify for the surgery. The process mimics the results of the surgical procedure at a fraction of the cost. There is no eating restriction; no invasive procedure; no pain, no side effects, no recovery time or time off from work.

The participants believe that they have undergone bariatric surgery in the first session to reduce the stomach to the size of a small pouch. This is followed by three to five further sessions, which deal with the emotional triggers, and habits that might result in a person overeating. It helps establish new healthy habits around food and eating.

Feedback shows that the hypnotherapy is like ‘flicking a switch in the brain’, turning off cravings and eating only until satisfied. This is not a diet; it is developing a new relationship with food that people can live with. It is about learning to recognize the difference between physical hunger and head hunger and making different choices, which soon become automatic and natural.

Here are a few comments from those who have experienced the virtual Gastric Band hypnosis:

“Immediately after the initial session, I could feel a change. I went home and prepared dinner and was completely full after eating only a small portion of food….I found myself preparing smaller meals without even thinking about it …..I am still eating the same delicious foods I like, but I am eating smaller amounts of them. This program is exactly what I wanted for myself because it is possible to sustain these habits for life. “

Ken A, lost 16 lbs in 4 weeks

“I would like to tell you that you have made a huge difference in my life in the way I think about food. I make better choices on what I eat now and I cannot eat as much as I could before hypnosis. I truly believe that I am on the way to a better life health wise. My blood sugars have been lower and I have not had to give myself as much insulin as before.”

Janice S

“I love feeling full and the feeling that I’m not dieting. I’m just listening to my body. I don’t feel deprived because I’m eating what I want, just not as much of it.”

A testimonial from Amanda from the July group.....

Virtual Gastric Band with Jane Conboy

For the past 2 and a half years I have been trying to take off weight. I have set goals every week, month and year. I have tried diets, point programs, calorie counting and pretty much every weight loss trick in the book. For the past year I have yo-yoed on the same 10 pounds. Everyday thinking to myself it’s coming off today, and being sadly mistaken after stepping on a scale. After trying so hard I began to feel like I was never going to loose weight. All the work at the gym and reading labels at the grocery store was for nothing. Worst of all the feeling of failing every time I was on a scale was driving the negativity and lack of motivation.

When I was told about the Virtual Gastric Band I thought to myself well I'll try anything. I went into my first session with no expectations just the will to try anything to change my health. Jane was wonderful. She explained hypnosis and the real gastric band process. When we left we were given 8 simple rules and a CD. The rules were so simple I had my doubts but I figured I'd give it a go. I followed the steps and listened to the CD and felt good all week finding myself with the energy for the gym and eating less. In my first week I lost 10.8 lbs something I had been trying to do for at least a year. Over the next 3 weeks I noticed I was eating less, there were no more stops at the refrigerator, I was looking for quality food at the grocery store, I had motivation, an a huge decrease of negativity, drive to exercise, feelings of satisfaction with less food, 95% decrease in head hunger, 95% decrease in cravings and for 3 continuous weeks I lost weight and saw a visible change in my body type. All of this and I ate what I wanted.

The Virtual Gastric Band has changed my relationship with food. Given me the power to feel great and stay motivated. I exercise every day doing something I really enjoy. I feel confident when looking at myself in the mirror. I can look past what I would have said was wrong with my body, to see what I have changed. This is a complete lifestyle change that I choose because my life no longer lives around the refrigerator. If you’re looking for a safe healthy way to change your life this is it.

I am now about 7-8 weeks into my new lifestyle and I feel great. I have continued to loose weight week to week; I have not gained even 1 pound. I have continued to eat small meals of foods that I like. I steer clear of foods that are not healthy for me because of my new relationship with food. I prefer quality foods like fresh fruit and vegetables. I am exploring new ways to prepare meals and cut portions down.

I have so many wins that I do not know which to share. On the worst day of the month for me, what I refer to as the "oh NO not a dressing room" days I tried on a pair of pants once again a size smaller that 2 weeks ago. I purchased a dress for a wedding about 6 weeks prior to the event and on the day of I had to tailor it in a hurry. The bride didn't recognize me from a year ago. I started walking, LONG walks 5-10 miles. In one week I walked 26 miles and it was fun and easy. I have to find someone to take the clothes I have shrunk from wearing and am not afraid of the racks at the department store. I allowed a photo to be taken of me and I looked at it without cringing. I have been more active in the last months than I have in ages. My goals have been set but I have not beaten myself up over poor decisions.

This (virtual) band has changed my life for the better. I will be doing this everyday for the rest of my life. I am doing this for me and am so thankful that Jane has given me freedom from the old way of life.

And another from her mother..........

Freedom … that’s what this program has given me … Freedom from counting calories or points, Freedom from shakes or pills, Freedom from deprivation … complete Freedom to eat anything I want, but in controlled amounts, and in a way I don’t even notice … Additionally I am now FREE from 17 pounds since I began this program in June and I am FREE from the worry & stress of regaining them … I know in my heart I know I am Free of them FOR GOOD!!! With my newfound Freedom from the weight comes the Freedom from larger (and less attractive) sizes and a new desire to exercise (suggested NOT required) which I usually choose to walk.

Most of my life has been spent in the “Fat Lane” and now I truly feel like that lane is “under construction” and once completed will be renamed the “Thin Lane” … for truly “Nothing Tastes as Good as Thin Tastes.”

… and by the way only 4 pieces of licorice TOTAL since our last get-together … with no feeling of deprivation …

The Virtual Gastric Band has received much attention in the UK, attracting people from all over the country to undergo the sessions, which have a very high success rate.

Sheila Granger says: “ I am passionate about promoting the benefits of hypnotherapy and allaying the misconceptions associated with stage hypnosis. I believe that the ‘Virtual Gastric Band’ can revolutionize weight loss in the United States. I know this because I have proven its effectiveness in two trials conducted in the UK.”

Her first trial saw 24 out of 25 candidates lose an astounding 190 lb. in 5 weeks. This result attracted the attention of a General Practitioner in Beverley, East Yorkshire England and a second trial was conducted with 12 of his patients who had been removed from the bariatric surgery waiting list on the UK’s National Health Services (NHS) list. Again 95% of the group experienced a positive result.

Ms. Granger has been in discussions with the Humberside Obesity, Nutrition, Education and Innovation Centre (HONEI) in East Yorkshire and is pleased to announce that provisional arrangements are now underway for a pilot study to be carried out in October in the UK. One of the partners of this organization is The University of Hull, Hull York Medical School.

People are amazed that this is not a diet, and that it is a mindful lifestyle change they can live with. They feel satisfied and content on much less food. And people can use it no matter how little or how much weight they want to lose.

The Virtual Gastric band process can be administered in individual sessions and in small groups in office or a place of business. And in some situations it can be done over the phone.
