Success Stories

Hello. My name is Mary Owens. I live in Austin, Texas. I am a retired secretary. I am married and have 2 adult children, 2 grandchildren and one great-grandchild. I was overweight off and on for many years. I hated dieting, and diets didn't work anyway. I didn't think I would ever lose my weight. Then I found Positive Changes and lost 52 lbs. and 5 dress sizes in 9 months. I went from a size 20 to a size 12. The best part is, I've already kept my weight off for two and a half years. There were no diets or points to count. It was simple. I am in better shape than I have been since I was young, and my doctor now suggests Positive Changes to his other patients who need to lose weight. The program was definitely worth the cost. Positive Changes is great!

Sweets and desserts were my weakness. I also ate out of emotion. For me, to be overweight was to be out of control. I was embarrassed by my weight, but the more I tried not to eat, the more I wanted to eat. My knees bothered me and I had trouble getting up out of chairs and walking. I got out of breath easily. I didn't want to see myself in a mirror or have my picture taken because I didn't like the way I looked. I wore clothes that hid my body. I never told anyone how much I weighed. Even my husband didn't know. I tried to lose weight with different support groups. I went to a doctor who put a staple in my ear and talked about a low-fat diet. I lost weight, but once I started backsliding, I couldn't stop. I didn't want to diet. I didn't want to count calories or keep track of everything I ate. I was about to give up. Then I thought about my health and realized I didn't want to give up. I had to give weight loss one more try.

One day my life changed forever. I was reading the newspaper and saw an ad for Positive Changes. I decided to call. My evaluator explained the program and gave me all the information I needed to make a decision. There was no sales pressure and I felt the fee was reasonable. From the time I left my first hypnosis session, I immediately stopped my emotional eating habits. I stopped snacking between meals or while watching television. Hypnosis makes it easy to make the right choices. I never feel there is any food I can't have. I simply enjoy eating healthy foods as much as I used to enjoy eating candy and sweets. I enjoy eating, but it is no longer the center of my life. I am in control of my life. I can even leave candy sitting around the house for my grandkids and not be tempted by it. I never dreamed it could be so easy to lose weight. I find it easy to exercise. I do water aerobics 3 days a week, and walk and stretch at home. I never believed I would enjoy exercise the way I do. It's easy to stay motivated. Even though I can walk miles with no trouble, it still surprises me how easy it is to get up and walk across a room. I feel good!

I am comfortable with my body and like the way I look. I have much more confidence. I enjoy wearing nice clothes that fit me. I no longer have to hide my body in my clothes. I make better use of my time. I enjoy my time more because I do things I wouldn't have attempted before. I know I can do anything. My blood pressure is lower and my cholesterol has improved. My doctor is amazed and my family and friends think my weight loss is great. I get compliments all the time. Hypnosis has also helped me be a better wife, mother and grandmother. I have more energy to put toward my family. I spend a day a week with my great-granddaughter, playing with her and taking her for walks. I couldn't have done that before.

I would do this all over again. Positive Changes was a smart investment. Thanks to hypnosis, I don't have to worry about my weight ever again. The program was structured for my success. Losing weight with hypnosis was far easier than any other program I tried. When I hear about people going to other places to lose weight, I feel like they are playing games with food. Other programs don't change how you think about eating. You just substitute points for this food or that one. I no longer play that game. If you go to Positive Changes and follow the program, then the program will work. I'm proof of that. So don't struggle with senseless diets or deprivation any longer. You can be a success like I am. Just call and schedule your free evaluation. Why put off the call that could change your life?
