Success Stories

My name is Jan Turner, and I live in Culver, Washington. I'm a dental hygienist. I've been married for 18 years and have two teenage sons. I'd been yo-yo dieting since high school. My weight made me feel sub-human and I felt even my children were embarrassed of me. Then I lost 43 lbs. in 7 months with Positive Changes. I went from a size 14 to a slim 6. Now my kids say I'm 'hot! I feel better and know my yo-yo dieting is over for good. Positive Changes really works. I would have spent double to get the results I've gained.

I was a big snacker. I'd sit down after dinner and have popcorn or a big bowl of ice cream. I made excuses. If someone told me I was eating too much or eating the wrong things, I would argue I just had a slow metabolism. Still, I tried many different strategies to lose weight. I exercised fanatically, did the point system, pre-packaged food, the low-carb diet'¦I tried them all! I felt totally out of control. I had clothes in every size imaginable' thin clothes, getting-chubby clothes and fat clothes. I was afraid to commit to getting rid of them in case I gained my weight back. I remember one night when I got dressed up and wore a dress that was a little too tight. I went downstairs and my oldest son had a look on his face like, 'You're going to wear that? I proceeded to wear something to cover up the dress. I was tired of feeling like a bad person because I was overweight. I'd seen the television commercials for Positive Changes, so I called them and went in for my free evaluation. I was skeptical. It sounded too good to be true, but my evaluator was very upbeat and personable, though, and she did a simple test that proved I could be hypnotized. I felt the fee was reasonable.

Hypnosis wasn't what I was expecting at all. My first session was very relaxing. My weight loss was work in the beginning, but Positive Changes gave me a lot of support and reinforcement. I sometimes felt I slept through my session and didn't get anything out of it, but I saw the results on the scale. That took away any remaining skepticism. My cravings vanished and I could go for longer periods of time between meals. I just didn't think about it. I no longer have to eat all the food on my plate and I started to crave water and fresh garden vegetables. It was wonderful. My weight loss was slow and steady, but it seemed fast. I don't deprive myself of anything, but I enjoy my meals and don't need anything else, so I no longer snack between meals or have a bowl of popcorn in the evening.

I started to see myself through new eyes. I became more relaxed and let go of my stress, and I'm less uptight and get along with my coworkers better. I used to come home at the end of the day dragging because I was so tired. Now I feel healthy and energized. My kids are proud of me, too. I just went to the mother/son dance at my oldest son's high school. It felt great when my son told me I was beautiful. I no longer feel I have to hide in baggy clothes. I've gotten rid of all my fat clothes' I'm never going back there. I've changed my way of life. I look great for 50!

Everyone wants to have a thin and trim body. I'd tried everything out there. I thought I was always going to have to keep my fat clothes so I'd have something to wear when I gained the weight back. Not this time! Hypnosis put me back in control of my eating and my life. I'm happy I took the chance and called Positive Changes. Set a realistic goal for yourself. Ask yourself what you want to accomplish with your life and where you want to be a year from now. Positive Changes can help you get there.
