Before making the decision to go to SlimQuest I was getting into bad habits with food and not able to find the motivation to do anything about the weight I was putting on.

I looked on the internet at possible ways of losing weight when I come across SlimQuest. I attended the classes with a friend, which was a good idea, as we were able to share the experience and help each other out.

Within two weeks of the course I felt I was gaining control of food and motivating myself with the techniques that Amy taught us. My confidence was growing and I was actually enjoying every part of the “hypno experience” mainly because I didn't feel that food and exercise were the enemy anymore. I eat when I am hungry and exercise because I know I have to, the difference is I didn't have the person in my head battling with me to not go!!!

I cannot recommend hypnotherapy enough and especially with Amy leading the class. I really looked forward to attending the weekly group sessions as we also had the time to speak about how we were feeling and if we felt that we had not been doing so well Amy was always able to reassure us or teach us another technique to help us on our way.

Since I have taken on board all the techniques and with Amy's help I have lost 11lbs and go to the gym at least 4 times a week. I finally have control over what I eat and how I feel.

Slimquest really has helped me in so many ways and I would like to thank Amy and the programme for helping me.

SlimQuest gives a whole new outlook on life, as you re-evaluate what you have been doing, and you don't really notice the small changes until you suddenly notice you have lost weight and feel more confident.

I was a chocoholic, not a day went by when I didn't eat at least one bar now I am indifferent! It has been 3 months since I ate it, and I still can't believe it!!

I, like many other women, have tried numerous different diets that have enabled me to lose a couple of pounds but as soon as the diet stops I have gained more weight.

After having my baby I found it extremely hard to lose weight and lost my self confidence. I was in a vicious circle, having a daily battle with myself, I wanted to lose weight but couldn't and considered there was no point in trying and would give up.

Having watched a television programme about hypnotherapy for weight loss I thought I would try it. My friend and I booked onto the SlimQuest program not really knowing what to expect but completely with an open mind.

I found the course completely refreshing as it was not a diet at all but a new way of thinking and living.

I was completely amazed at how I didn't even think about food and how these crazy techniques were actually really working, because not only was I actually losing weight, but I was gaining confidence and had a goal in sight that felt achievable!!

Altogether now I have lost 19lbs (9 weeks) since being part of Amy's group and would recommend this class to anybody who wants to lose weight and feel good about themselves.

I love how it feels to go clothes shopping now and not think everything looks awful because I'm fat!!
