Have you tried numerous diets and failed?

You are not alone. A high percent of people try weight loss diets hoping for quick results and they don’t work. While initially they may lose a few pounds, often they get bored on the diet and gain it back, plus more! There are a number of reasons underlying weight gain that are not addressed by quick weight loss diets. When the reasons are not addressed and resolved, it becomes difficult to achieve and maintain your weight goals. If there is no change in how you think about food, your eating habits and the underlying psychological reasons as to why you are overeating, or put on weight in the first instance there can’t be any real change made in your weight.  In fact some diets may even leave you feeling hungry and thus create powerful cravings for food.

  • Have you found it difficult to lose those extra pounds?
  • Would you like a process where you are happy, relaxed and can eat whatever you like?
  • Are you tired of feeling deprived when dieting?
  • Do you lose weight only to gain it and more back again?

 

The Virtual Gastric Band For Weight Loss Is A Great Alternatibadge-lgve And May Be The Answer That Can Change Your Life

What is the Virtual Gastric Band Procedure?
The Virtual Gastric Band (VGB) is a procedure of hypnotherapy developed to train the brain to sense that the stomach has been reduced. The sensation is similar to the actual Gastric Band (Lap Band) surgical procedure where a band is placed around the top portion of the stomach creating a small pouch. This results in feeling fuller with less food consumed and significant weight reduction is achieved. The VGB procedure is natural, safe and non-invasive.

Debbie Lane C.Ht. trained with Sheila Granger who developed the VGB program in Europe and conducted clinical trials.  The first trial conducted in 2009 produced a 95% success rate*.  Debbie has conducted trials in Tampa Bay, FL with similarly impressive results.

If you have considered Gastric Band (Lap Band) Surgery to lose weight, you want to consider Virtual Gastric Band first!

The weight loss you’ll achieve with the  Virtual Gastric Band Program is steady, sustainable and healthy. You can expect to lose between 1 and 3 pounds a week. This amount of steady weight loss does  not result in burning up muscle, like so many fast loss diet fads. This is because unlike so many diets, it doesn’t affect the body’s metabolic rate, so there’s no artificial weight loss where the body burns muscle instead of fat.

With this program, you will easily be able to understand what’s a real physical hunger rather than an emotional hunger. No more eating due to boredom, anxiety, frustration etc. You will learn how to deal with those feelings without turning to food.

Virtual Gastric Band is
•   Safe
•   Non-invasive
•   Natural
•   Has no negative side effects
•   Effective!

What does the Virtual Gastric Band program involve?
•    The VGB program involves a minimum of four hypnosis sessions. (see below)
•    The client is expected to listen to a 15 minute audio daily, for 28 days.
•    A commitment to follow eight simple rules is necessary.
•    A strong desire to make changes that last is a must!

Four Sessions: The first three sessions are scheduled in advance a week apart; the final session will be conducted according to the individual clients needs and progress. (Clients who are more than 50 pounds overweight may desire additional sessions.)

Gastric Band (Lap Band) Surgery
As with any major surgery, gastric bypass, gastric band (Lap Band) and other weight-loss surgeries pose some serious potential health risks, both in the short term and long term. Patients commonly suffer from these Complications with Gastric Band Surgery.
•    Nausea and vomiting
•    Reflux
•    Slipped band
•    Difficulty swallowing
•    Constipation

Some of these symptoms combined can lead to re-adjusting the band, therefore more surgery.

Not everyone is a good candidate for gastric band (Lap Band) surgery. In order to qualify, a patient:
•    Must have exhausted other options for weight-loss through diet and exercise
•    Must have a BMI of more than 40 (morbidly obese) or more than 35 (obese) with other medical problems such as type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure or severe sleep apnea.
•    Must pass extensive medical screening
