Can’t stop gorging on chocolate? You’re not alone
Hands up if you’re one of those people who simply cannot get through a day without a dose of chocolate.
Do you feel you are addicted? At the mercy of that delicious taste?!
Would you like to be free from this grip?
Today I’d like to introduce you to Yvonne from Derby who was – I don’t think she’ll mind me saying – slightly obsessed with chocolate!
She would hide it all around the house and use the excuse that she was buying it for her family when in fact it was only really her eating it all.
Since being hypnotised last year to manage her cravings, she has lost nearly 2 stone just from cutting it out of her diet.
And she says she’s not that fussed about eating chocolate at all any more!
So here is Yvonne in her own words; I wonder how many of you recognise this story?
“I always had to have chocolate in the house. I would panic if I didn’t!
I would use the excuse that I was buying it all for the children; multipacks of 6 or 8 bars. But during the day I would eat quite a lot of myself. And then because there wasn’t chocolate in the house any more I would go out and buy another pack.
It was a vicious circle.
I would take chocolate to work, leave it in the car, in the draw under my bed and because I am a nurse and work nights three times a week I would eat a bar of chocolate to keep me going when my sugar levels dropped.
At Easter I would go totally overboard buying the children ridiculous amounts.
I almost made a mental connection with hot drinks, because if I had one I would HAVE to have a chocolate bar with it. It wasn’t hunger it was just compulsion.
I couldn’t live without a few bars a day.
But then it got to the point where I was the heaviest I had ever been; heavier even than when I was at full term pregnancy!
So after seeing the story of Emma and her weight loss in Women’s Own magazine I booked up with Russell.
Since those sessions I haven’t touched chocolate!
A few weeks ago I was at the hairdressers and I would normally have a hot chocolate to drink but this time I asked for a coffee. Only when it came back it had chocolate sprinkles on the top. And I couldn’t drink them. I had to scrape them off and put them in my husband’s empty cup!
I can buy chocolate now and it doesn’t bother me at all. At Christmas when all the chocolate selections come around the office I didn’t have one. Not one.
No one can quite believe it because they’ve never known me not eat chocolate!
But since my hypnotherapy sessions in July, I’ve lost 1stone 10lbs – and that is literally from cutting out the chocolate bars.
I am utterly delighted.”
If you are in the grip of a food craving you want to be freed from, I can help.
There are many others I’ve successfully treated for addiction to chocolate; check out the chocolate addiction page on the website for more testimonials.
This is Yvonne before and after her treatment – she’s smiling because she knows she’s no longer in the grip of chocolate any more!
