Gastric Band Hypnosis Now Available Anywhere in the World via Skype Hypnosis

Forget yo-yo dieting.  Gastric Band Hypnosis is what everyone is talking about.  All the benefits of Gastric Band but without the surgery!  

When I first heard that, I was really sceptical, but the results keep coming...7 kg in a month and another client has lost 98 lbs in 15 months – that is 44kg!  Gastric Band Hypnosis works and it can work for you too.

I offer Gastric Band Hypnosis as an easy four session programme and you have two choices:

-         Individually tailored programme just for you, in the privacy of my home office in Portsmouth, Hampshire, UK or over Skype anywhere in the world with Skype Hypnosis.
-         Or a group programme for at least four people.

This is perfect if you can find some friends, relatives or co-workers as you will motivate each other and pay one quarter of the programme price.

It is also a great way of raising funds for schools, churches and clubs, especially with sponsorship.

Just contact me, Antonia Harrison, via my website at EnglishSkypeHypnotist.

You have nothing to lose except the weight. 



Why Diets, Slimming Clubs and Low-Fat Foods Keep Adding on the Pounds

FORGET DIETING…
Diets only work in the short term.  The US$ 40 Billion diet industry knows that yet they keep allowing you to waste your money.  You might lose a few pounds but then you put even more weight back-on.  Yo-yo dieting! 

             
           
FORGET STARVATION…
If you restrict your calorie intake you starve your body and become obsessed with eating.  Starving your body slows down your metabolic rate so you actually lose weight at a snail’s pace.

FORGET” LOW-FAT”FOODS & “LIGHT” DRINKS
“Low-fat” foods and “light” drinks only make your body hold on to the weight.  The artificial sweeteners in these drinks raise blood sugar thereby worsening the effect on diabetics and lead to a host of chronic illnesses.  Fat is not a bad word as your body needs a certain amount of fat for essential functions.  The hidden sugar and salt are far worse.

FORGET DIETING CLUBS
Dieting clubs are great for mutual support but they focus on calorie counting and ultimately want you to buy their brand of restricted foods.  Go for friendship, not for their system.

Do You WANT to Count Every Single Calorie… For the Rest of Your Life?

10 Tips for the London to Brighton Bike Ride

On Sunday 16 June, approximately 27,000 people will cycle the 54 miles from London to Brighton in the annual event in aid of the British Heart Foundation.


Men's Health magazine published a list of 10 tips for anyone taking part which of course are good tips for cycling in general so here they are:

This is what you’ll need to stay ahead of the pack and avoid the dreaded ‘bonk”.

I want to ride my bicycle...
Are you psyching yourself up to sign up for the 54-mile sprint (with optional pub pit stops) from London to Brighton’s Palace Pier? If so, read the 10 essential tips to guarantee you reach the finishing line in good shape, courtesy of MH’s resident bike nut Rob Milton.

1 Health check your bike

A few days before the ride, check your bike. Oil your gears to make sure they are running smoothly, check you don't need to replace the break pads and that there’s no excessive wear on the tyres.

2 Stay hydrated

Take two water bottles and fill up when you can en route. Try to take a drink every 20 minutes (or sooner if needed). The rule is to drink before you are thirsty. That way you’ll stay hydrated.

3 Get storage

Buy a waist bag for essentials. We recommend the canvas utility version from Ripcurl.com.

4 Eat a little, often

Remember you could be on the bike for at least five or six hours. Take dried fruit, bananas, peanut-butter sandwiches and if you feel like splashing out, some energy bars. Stash them in your bag and try to eat something every 30 minutes. If you feel hungry it could be too late and you could suffer “the bonk”. That’s bike parlance for the lapse in energy when you have not eaten enough.

5 Get salty

Bring a bag of salted peanuts or an energy drink with electrolytes for replacing the salt you will lose as you sweat. You will need to replace salts just like you replace water.

6 Pack a puncture repair kit

Be prepared for a puncture. Make sure you can fix it yourself, and bring spare tubes, pump and puncture repair kit. There’s nothing worse than being stranded.

7 Don’t forget waterproofs

Bring a rain jacket. It is England after all, and nothing is worse than being wet, cold and tired. For the same reason, don’t wear jeans.

8 Sort a lift home in advance

Get yourself a space in the organiser’s coaches for the return trip. You’re not allowed to take your bike home on the train, and parking in Brighton is tricky at the best of times.

9 Bring cash

If you get stuck behind a slower group of riders, you might want to wait for the traffic to die down in one of the many pubs en route. You’ll also need cash for some well-deserved post-race fish and chips on the pier.

10 Wear padded shorts

That seat may seem nice and comfortable at the beginning of the day, but it probably won’t be your friend at the 50-mile mark. Invest in some padded shorts (like this budget offering) and sitting will be much easier in the days following the ride.
