Dieting can feel like a mind game. Being in a constant state of deprivation is often just as much a mental struggle as a physical one. Really, there's nothing like wanting that chocolate biscuit when you know you can't have it! But without sounding all airy-fairy, you could use your mind to stay on track and shed those extra pounds. Here's how your brain power could help you get your waist back...
Better than a jab
The latest diet craze is semaglutide, aka Ozempic or Wegovy, but this drug isn't suitable for everyone, warns clinical hypnotherapist Juls Abernethy. It stops working soon after you finish taking it and, adds Juls, even the medication manufacturers say you'll need to create behaviour changes to keep the weight off.
Then there are the side effects - nausea, bloating, constipation. No, thanks. Instead, we're rather taken with the 'hypno-jab'.
This natural, needle- and medication-free way of losing weight involves listening to a 30-minute guided hypnosis (which doesn't cost a penny, by the way) to help you change your approach to eating. It's low-risk and without side effects because you - not drugs - are doing the work.
