Success Stories

My name is Susan Meyer and I live in Coulee Dam, WA. I have currently lost 54 lbs in 6 months. I was a 1x and now I’m a size 6. My husband and children are very impressed. I’ve been overweight for about 5 years but the last 2 is when I became my heaviest. I didn’t feel good about myself. I would look in the mirror and felt so unattractive. I felt that it reflected upon a deeper level of who I was.

I called Positive Changes Hypnosis because I had tried to lose weight by myself but was unsuccessful. I would lose 10 lbs but would put it right back on. I decided to call because I had had a previous positive experience with hypnosis and felt I needed assistance in reaching my goals.

I would describe the Positive Changes program as wonderful. It helped me beyond my expectations; it helped me get me where I wanted to be. I wasn’t sure deep down that it was going to work, but to my surprise it did. Going to the sessions was absolutely fabulous; it was my time to go in with no worries. I had minimal results for the first 4 months of my program, but with the continuous help of my hypnotists, it really started coming off. I joined in September and I lost most of my weight between January and March.

I used to have sleep apnea but when I had lost quite a bit of weight it stopped occurring. I noticed a change in my behavior; I noticed that I was more regular in my exercise and I was more careful about how I ate. Even though I wasn’t losing weight right away, I felt a lot better. I started drinking water and my headaches even went away. I used to have migraines a couple times a week but after drinking so much water, I don’t have them anymore. It’s really wonderful; it gave me energy and just a better attitude all together. I was educated enough to know that dieting doesn’t really work, that’s why I wanted to go into a program that really changed my mind set rather than just put a bandage on it. Instead of changing what I was eating for awhile, I needed to get to where I changed my attitude on health and fitness.

I was completely out of control when it came to sweets. I could easily sit down and eat a box of cookies, not even really enjoying the food, just waiting to get the next one down. It’s really a bad state to be in. You really get more satisfaction by leasurly eating a few of them. I feel in control of my eating now. Hypnosis eliminated all the binges and poor eating habits.

Losing weight has given me more confidence in my appearance; I can wear cute clothes again. I don’t like wearing elastic band clothing. I would rather wear more modern styles. I feel more confident with my sexuality and I feel more beautiful. I even have more energy to do the things I enjoy doing. I don’t tire as easily and I no longer wait for activities to be over, I’m just out there enjoying them. Positive Changes changed my outlook on eating and my whole outlook on health and fitness. I have more of a holistic view of being a healthy person and living a healthy lifestyle. I thought that dieting was what you did to lose weight then I would go back to my old habits. I found that really enjoying myself entails a healthy lifestyle.

I would say the most valuable benefits that I have received from Positive Changes are the headaches and sleep apnea being gone and the new confidence I feel about myself. I feel beautiful again. I feel my weight loss is permanent and I would recommend Positive Changes Hypnosis to anyone who wants to lose weight. The staff is absolutely fabulous and very professional. They gave me great positive re-enforcement and support.

If anyone in the program is not getting the results they want, I encourage them to stick to their program and to change the little voice in your head that says, “I am going to fail, this doesn’t work, I wasted my money”. Instead, truly believe that you can make positive changes.
