Basic Principles• Diet & Nutrition is more important than exercise.
• Not just ‘calories in vs calories out’.
• How the body-mind processes the ‘fuel’ is important.
• Unless there is an overriding medical factor, all above will be driven by Beliefs, Habits & Identity.

2 Different AimsTraditional Diets - Attain & Maintain!
• Attain - Body has to use up more than it takes in to get down to ideal size and weight
• Maintain - Body has to take in about the same as it uses to maintain ideal size and weight
• Attain = short-term, Maintain = long-term

Achievable Or Not?
• Short-term “attain” diets can often achieve their aim.
• Long-term “Maintain” diets rarely do …
• … Unless there has been a shift in Inner Identity & Beliefs

Coués Law Of Reversed Effort/Effect
“Whenever there is a conflict between the WILL and the IMAGINATION, the IMAGINATION will
WIN.”!
Émile Coué (Born 1857)!
(Result = The harder you try, the more you will fail)

What do we mean by “Imagination”?
Any aspect of a persons internal “Imaging” such as:
• Self-Image - how they see themselves (Identity).
• Imagined Outcomes (If I get slim then “x”)
• Emotional Responses (I feel “this” so I do “this”)
• Conditioned Responses (Pure Behavioural)
![Page 11: Hypnotherapy & Hypnosis For Weight Loss & Weight ...presentation.pdf• “If I get slim and look more attractive I’m scared of the attention that might create.” (Fear & Anxiety)](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022052519/5f27033448eb8a12d42f5bf8/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Self-Image• Set-Point (Like a Central Heating System
thermostat)
• “ I am fat” “I am overweight” type self-fulfilling beliefs. (“It’s what I am”).
• I am not good enough, worthless, etc - so use body to reflect that. (e.g. Overeating creates more worthless feeling).
• I am unsafe & vulnerable - being fat will protect me.

Imagined Outcomes• “If I can’t have cake, sweets, etc I will feel
deprived”.
• “If I eat that cake I will feel Goooood!”
• “If I get slim and look more attractive I’m scared of the attention that might create.” (Fear & Anxiety)
• “If I finally get slim I’ll have no more excuses for not doing what I say I’m going to do”. (ie “I can’t do [x] until I lose weight) [“If Only” syndrome].

Conditioned Responses (Pure Behavioural)
• “I always have a glass of wine at 6 pm and finish the bottle throughout the evening”.
• “I always have a chocolate bar for morning and afternoon snack”.
• “I always finish what’s on my plate”.
• “It’s just what I’ve always done”. (Habit).

Emotional Responses• Eating as a “reward” or “treat”.
• Eating when bored.
• Eating to feel better when upset, sad, angry, anxious, etc. (ie to change how a person feels)
• Eating to suppress feelings & emotions.
