We are all really suggestible - surprisingly so - click here to see how when students are told that chocolate flavoured yoghurt is strawberry, they really believe it! This is based on research by Brian Wansink, of Cornell University.

This is very helpful. It means when your eyes see your meal served on a small plate, you will feel satisfied when you finish the plate. Likewise, when you see a huge plate filled to the brim, you eat it as well. Somehow, being served a large full plate gives you permission to overeat. On the other hand, when your portion is placed in the centre of a huge plate, you feel rather done down. You can harness your suggestibility to your own benefit!

Hypnosis is all about suggestion. If you have decided to give up puddings, that decision will be reinforced by suggestions that you no longer wish to eat a pudding, that it is unnecessary and that indeed you prefer not to.

Now that you realise just how suggestible we all are, you can be confident that hypnosis for weight control is going to help!
