From: Anne 

          I hope this letter will help other people understand how hypnosis can change their lives as it did mine. As you know I am retired and I drive all the way from Hollister to San Jose to participate in your program. When I started the program, my goal was to loose 35 pounds or more. Most of all I wanted to stop the snacking in between meals, especially sweets. I had gained and lost weight on and off for 15 years and because of my heart attack 5 years ago, my cardiologist encouraged me to take off the weight.

          Like most people, I tried all kinds of diets. I would loose weight at first and then give it up and gain more weight. I had used hypnosis for giving up smoking and for weight loss years before but this program was different from my previous experience. I liked the idea that the program did not just end after so many months, that they stayed with you until you reached your goal and still were there for you through the maintenance period.

          I feel hypnosis works for me. I’ve lost 27 pounds so far and gone down 2 sizes in clothes. I feel I have more energy. I don’t feel the need to snack. I eat real food but I’m in control now, no more “bingeing”, and I believe these changes will be permanent. I walk 2 ½ miles at least five times a week. My blood pressure is low and my cholesterol is low.

          I started noticing the changes after the first couple of sessions, it was very powerful but at the same time it’s not overwhelming, it’s subtle, small changes at first. Almost at once, everyone noticed I was eating much slower and making better food choices. My family is very pleased because they know I’m a much healthier person.

          There have been other benefits you should know about. I have more energy and I am more positive about my life. I am involved in more exercise programs. I want everyone to know that hypnosis has not just changed my life, it has saved my life! And the quality of service and support I received was very professional, the whole experience was positive. I have already recommended several people to the program.

Thank You,

Anne

My name is Donna.  I am retired and live in Grants Pass.  I first came to H.T.I. to lose weight after my doctor recommended I do so. 

As I had been overweight for many years, I had tried every kind of weight loss program that came out in a magazine or a book, including Atkins and Weight Watchers.  I even ordered one from the TV, but none of them ever worked.

My husband heard the ad on the radio and wanted me to try hypnosis.  I had tried hypnosis years and years ago but there was no follow up and I put the weight back on.

I started out very slowly as far as losing weight.  But now I have found by eating a balanced every-day type eating plan, I do much better and my weight is coming off faster.  One of the biggest benefits is my body is finally starting to shrink and that means new clothes.  I am feeling a lot better, not so sluggish, and I’m moving around better.

I started to notice changes after the first 30 pounds came off (I have now lost a total of 46.5 pounds) and my friends started telling me my clothes were way too big.  My face also lost its puffy look.  My family is saying “mom, it’s time to buy some new clothes.”

At first I told only my best friends and my son  that I was using hypnosis.  I needed the extra help that hypnosis has given me and I feel confident that the results will be permanent.  Now that I am able to walk better and move around more, I can take walks with my grandson and have a better quality of life.

My husband is very proud of my results and a couple of my good friends are more concerned about their weight now.  The most important benefits, in addition to weight loss, is the positive input you get from the program.  It gets your thinking on the right track – that you are a good, worthwhile person.

John, you and your staff have been like angels in helping me.  You’re very nice, helpful and friendly too.  I have recommended H.T.I. to others and will continue to do so.

          Hello,      

          My name is Irene, I am 82 years old and of course retired.  A few months ago the doctor told me I needed to get down to 135 pounds or less, so that was my goal when I saw the ad in the newspaper and decided to use hypnosis.  My doctor was very encouraging.  I had had a weights problem all of my life, and over the years I had tried just about everything to lose weight.  The only one I liked was Weight Watchers.  I could lose the weight but it would come back and at some point I would have to start all over again.  I just never finished solving the weight problem.  I decided to try hypnosis because I knew that I just couldn’t do it by myself.

          In the beginning I only told a few people I was using hypnosis because I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to follow through with the program.  It turns out that it was very easy and I am very happy with my success to date.  I have lost 23 pounds at the rate of a pound a week.  I only have 5 pounds to go and I’m working on it.  Also, my cravings have gone away.  I just don’t feel hungry.  I have changed my eating habits and I am exercising.  I walk a lot now and I plan to do even more exercise.  I seem to have self-control now, I come to all my appointments and I listen to my tapes.  I know the changes will be permanent.

          I started to notice the changes when I discovered that I like myself now.  Other people started to notice that I was smiling, and my family is very happy.  The hypnosis program has changed my life.  I think the most important benefit is that I know that now I can change my life so I don’t worry about anything that I can’t change anymore.  I enjoy coming to my appointments, everyone is very helpful and I have the feeling everyone is on my side.  I recommend the hypnosis services to others.

          Thank you,

To Whom It May Concern:

Hello, my name is Arlene, I am 74 years old, retired, and I live in Eagle Point.  I first came to the Hypnosis Technology Institute to lose weight.  I was unsuccessful due to my own reluctance to take the time to properly take care of myself.  However I realized right away that I was benefiting in other ways with the hypnosis and so I continued coming in for treatment. 

As a result of working with John and the hypnosis program I began to realize that I had been under a great deal of stress the last 50 years of my life.  These 50 years of my life revolved around constant care for my husband who became paralyzed from the waist down in the sixth year of our marriage.  Over the years he continued to have other health complications which made caring for him difficult and confining.  I loved my husband and I lived with the constant fear that I could lose him at any time.  He could see that the hypnosis was helping me and encouraged me to continue.  He was always wonderful and very supportive.

I began my treatment for stress in May of this year and as fate (or the Good Lord) would have it in June my husband passed away.  Thanks to the hypnosis treatment of the prior months I was able to cope with his death much better than I had thought I would all those years.  As a result of the hypnosis treatment I am more calm and relaxed now, and I have gained back my confidence. I am more active in church and able to enjoy my life.

I enjoy coming to HTI.  For me, it was more of a treat than a treatment.  Due to my husbands medical problems I had to make frequent appointment changes and they always accommodated my needs.  I feel the positive changes in my life will be permanent.  I definitely recommend their services.

Sincerely

Arlene

To Whom It May Concern:

My name is Les.  I’m an Administrator for a senior care facility and I live in Medford, Oregon.  I came to the Hypnosis Technology Institute in January 2004 with the desire to lose 30 pounds.  My physician recommended I lost the weight.  I had seen a TV ad about the positive results using hypnosis and since I had already tried a host of different diets, exercise plans, and even skipping meals with only temporary success, I decided to try it.  I am very happy to say that I’ve lost 29 pounds and I feel a lot better about myself.  Clothes that I have not been able to fit into for many years suddenly fit great.  I have six or seven suites that I can now wear.

I found the changes with hypnosis to be subtle and I began to notice changes within 2 weeks after starting my program.  I noticed that I was eating less and choosing the inappropriate foods less frequently.  My family and others began to notice the changes within a month after I began treatment.  They are all very proud of my weight loss achievement.  So much so that my daughter has now begun her own treatment program at HTI.

There have been additional benefits.  I feel better, look better, I can do more than 5 pushups, and I also learned some good techniques for relaxation.  The excessive weight was simply not good for my health so losing it was a real improvement.

John was a pleasure to work with.  My schedule is erratic and he was accommodating and worked with me.  Because of this and other factor my weight loss took a bit longer than expected but they stuck with me until I reached my goal.  I recommend the HTI weight loss program. It is a far better way to lose weight and the personal attention given to each client is very supportive.

Sincerely,

Les

To Whom It May Concern:

My name is Judson. I’m a Pharmacist and I live in Medford, Oregon. I came to the Hypnosis Technology Institute on March 8^th 2004 with the desire to lose 10-15 pounds. I am very health conscious and had read an article about the possible beneficial effects of hypnosis in a medical publication. Since I tried to lose these extra pounds through exercise, dieting, and eating smaller portions and was not having success, I decided to explore hypnosis.

I must admit I was skeptical during my initial consultation that it would actually work on me, however after hearing and seeing how the process was carried out at HYI, I decided to try it. I continued to be skeptical for the first couple of weeks and then began to notice that something was happening. I found the changes with hypnosis to be very subtle and so I can’t pinpoint exactly when the actual turnaround occurred, I began to notice that I was snacking less and choosing inappropriate foods less frequently.

Well, much to my surprise I have lost 15 pounds and also learned some good techniques for relaxation. I have also stopped taking anti-depressant medication.

I recommend the HTI weight loss program. It is a far better way to lose weight over yo-yo dieting, Atkins, etc. And the personal touch given to each client was very supportive.

Sincerely,

Jud

To Whom It May Concern:

My name is Marty and I live in Medford. Prior to my coming to the Hypnosis Technology Institute, I’d been on so many diets that I could have qualified as a “professional dieter”. I tried Nutri-Systems three times, Weight Watchers, the Omnifast Diet, diet counseling, pills, pills, and more pills. They all worked but inevitably the result was that the weight always returned.

I came to HTI because I have known for years that hypnosis works, but until now I had not been able to locate a hypnotherapist. When I began my program in July my goal was more than just weight loss, I wanted to once again fit into my size 10 clothes, because within the last 3 years I had reached the point where I was rapidly outgrowing size 14.

Guess what? Now my size 10 slacks are too big! I’m within a few pounds of my final weight goal but I met the “inches goal” some time ago. I am no longer waddling and ashamed of my appearance. Through hypnosis I gained the confidence needed to succeed in many other endeavors as well. Finding myself without the negative feelings that once held me back, I can now tap the power within to successfully meet new challenges in my life. I’m no longer a diehard procrastinator.

I noticed the changes immediately. I first realized a change in my attitude in the grocery store where I was no longer tempted by bakery goods, candies, or chips. I headed straight for the produce, fresh fruits and vegetables. Food tastes so good now! Slowing down eating has allowed me to enjoy what I am eating. Within a few weeks others were noticing a change in my demeanor (a new glow on my face) and not long after, the weight loss started to be apparent. I began telling my friends about HTI and in fact a couple of them have since joined as well. It is one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself. Daily brisk walks with my partner have helped reduce his blood pressure and now both of our eating patterns have improved.

I am totally confident the changes are permanent because I have replaced old bad habits with good habits and completely changed my attitude about food. I have higher self-esteem and confidence in my ability to succeed at whatever I want to do.

The support at HTI was excellent! John Dabaco is very skilled and knowledgeable in the art of hypnotherapy, and he was so positive and encouraging every step of the way, it would have been difficult to fail. For me, his Lifetime Guarantee was evidence of his desire to help me succeed. Hypnosis is not magic, it’s a marvelous tool that I absolutely recommend with the reminder that you have to want to make those changes and actively participate in accomplishing your goal.

You can do it!

Marty

To Whom It May Concern:

My name is David and I live in Grants Pass. My goal when I began the hypnosis program was to loose about 30 pounds. I’ve also been working on my golf game off and on for over 40 years, taking lessons, tapes, and other training aids. I needed better concentration on the course, so I signed up for the golf program and now I’ve met my goal and play consistently in the upper 70’s.

I am pleased to say that I have lost at least 30 pounds so far, and more than 10 inches and 5% body fat in the past 4 ½ months! I began noticing changes within the first week of my hypnosis session and others began noticing changes in the first month. Some people have been amazed, some surprised, and my family has all been supportive.

I am proud to tell people I’m using hypnosis. In the past, I had tried plenty of diets and exercise, none of which I could stick with. I lost weight in the beginning, but it was not a life change, so eventually I gained it all back and stopped exercising. However, now I am very confident that the changes I’m making now will be for life.

I have joined the YMCA and do water aerobics 3 times a week and use the exercise equipment when I can. My wife now joins me at the YMCA, so she is also getting more exercise. With the lower weight I am now walking the golf course rather than taking a cart and I feel so much healthier.

The most important benefit I have received from my hypnosis program is the confidence that I am making a permanent life change for the better.

The quality of service at Hypnosis Technology Institute has been the very best. I am getting support at each step along the process to a permanent life change. I have recommended H.T.I.’s services to my overweight friends and will continue to do so.

Sincerely,

David

From: Jim

          As you know I began my weight loss program in June of 2001. At that time I was at 275 pounds and my doctor recommended, and in fact, strongly encouraged me to loose some weight. I had been overweight off and in for 40 years and as a schoolteacher my life didn’t include much exercise. Prior to starting my hypnosis program I had tried to loose weight by missing meals, liquid protein, meal replacement drinks like metrical, the Cambridge diet, and assorted pills. They all seemed to work for a short time but as soon as I went off the diet my weight returned and went even higher.

          I saw the newspaper ad for hypnosis and it seemed exciting. At the beginning my goal was to loose 60 pounds. To date I’ve lost 35 pounds down to 240, and my fitness level is better, my self-esteem is better, and I’ve lost 4 inches in my waist. I am learning how to curb my appetite with water and protein. This program is centered on knowledge. Lots of information is provided. I know what it takes to get the weight to come off. I’ve learned not to jump up and eat whenever hungry, and to drink water, and to eat only a sensible amount.

          I noticed the change within several weeks, but others noticed probably after 20 pounds or so, especially those I haven’t seen regularly. The weight doesn’t just pour off. It is coming off slowly but with some regularity. I believe the results will be permanent. I really do, I’m being educated, and I don’t even feel starved. I feel confident I can keep it off. My wife likes having a husband that is easier to hug. She wants me to live a while. The kids see me smaller and equate that with longer life also. Whenever the subject of my weight loss comes up, I tell people about hypnosis and the program.

          I look forward to exercise! Now I’m going to get a “Bowflex” machine to help get fit. I can’t think of any new activities I’ll get involved with, but what I do, or have done is getting easier. I may try my bicycle soon. The program has helped me physically but even more mentally. I am more optimistic. I am happier and look forward to the future. I’m even more generous in my praise of others. My wife loves her new husband. She looks forward to an even smaller one.

          The most important benefit I received from the hypnosis program is hope for the future. I was at 275 pounds and determined that I would never go on another “diet”. I recommend your services highly. The support has been great. You, Kookie the receptionist and Jane the other therapist have always encouraged me. And I might add, scolded as the situation warranted. The tapes I get from our “personal sessions” sooth and encourage me. When I was first introduced to the program it sounded expensive, but when it worked for me, it seemed reasonable at twice the cost. I am not a great subject, but I am still enjoying the journey and looking forward to the destination. I know that this is a way of life, and will be a part of me forever.

          Thank you all,

          James

To Whom It May Concern:

From Fred

          Please accept my letter of endorsement for John Dabaco and the use of hypnosis for weight loss. I am a retired podiatrist. When I started my weight loss program, my goal was to loose 25 pounds in order to get back down to 195. I had been up and down like a “Yo-Yo” with weight loss for years. I wanted to improve my general state of health and I wanted my clothes to fit. One day I noticed my good suit and pants just became too tight to be comfortable.

          I saw your ad in the newspaper and realized my subconscious mind wasn’t into it so I made up my mind to act. I had experience with hypnosis when in practice and even performed minor surgery after putting patients under hypnosis. I knew it would work. My office fire in 1973 burned all of my notes and books from lectures I had attended with Dr. Erickson at Highland hospital in Oakland California. Dr. Erickson as you know is considered one of the fathers of modern hypnotherapy. So I decided to learn more up-to-date methods and see if I could change my subconscious attitudes.

          I started noticing changes about 3 weeks into the program. I had lost about 10 pounds and my pants were more comfortable. My wife was the first to notice the change, then our children. The kids had seen me yo-yo through the years so they didn’t even comment. I have reached my goal and lost the 25 pounds and I think this time it might be permanent. I truly believe that. I told friends that I was attending nutrition classes with hypnosis to accelerate the program. I also told those who were interested in my experiences with hypnosis about my using hypnosis in my office practice.

          In addition to the weight loss, there have been several other benefits. When walking I have less knee pain. I can still hunt and fish, and do gardening with my wife. I’ve had knee problems for years as a result of horseback ridding which was very hard on the knees, hands, and shoulders. I had been active in hunting and fishing, and I am grateful that I can once again do it with minimum discomfort. Beyond this there hasn’t been any change in my lifestyle.

          The most important benefit for me is that I believe the change to my subconscious mind is there forever and I have much better knowledge of food relative to weight loss. The service and support has been excellent and I have recommended the program to others.

Thank you,

Fred

To Whom It May Concern:

My name is Shirley, I’m a 66-year-old housewife and I live in White City Oregon. My goal in coming to the Hypnosis Technology Institute was to lose about 50 pounds. I had carried the extra weight on my body most my life. I tried Weight Watchers, diet foods, pills, Weight Dr., and other diets. In some cases I was able to lose weight but I always gained it back. I learned about hypnosis from a friend of mine who said she had gone for hypnosis once and liked it, so I called to go in to the Hypnosis Technology Institute.

I have to say that it took me a while but I lost most of the weight. I lost a total of 46.2 pounds, reduced my body fat by 7.5 percent, and shed a total of 39.5 inches from my body. I started really noticing changes after a couple of months. My family also noticed the changes and they love it. I feel good about myself and I’ve gotten involved with the “Red Hats” and I’m going on an overseas vacation.

I got very good support at HTI and began telling other people about how the hypnosis was working. In fact I got two other people to start going to HTI. The most important benefit for me is that I learned to eat differently and I’m pretty confident my changes are permanent.

Sincerely,

Shirley

To: John

From: Dianne

          I would like to recommend hypnosis and John to anyone who may be considering loosing weight or may have stress related difficulties. These are both issues I can speak of with qualification. I am a teacher and I live in Santa Clara, California. My goals when I began my hypnosis program in late May of 2001 was to loose weight and reduce the stress in my life. I had allowed the situation to persist for 15 years and I just knew I had to get both issues under control. I had tried various weight loss programs like Weight Watchers, Optifast at Stanford Hospital, and Redux at Kaiser. The good news was that at one point I lost 40 pounds, the bad news is that as soon as I was off the diets I gained it all back.

          I decided to try hypnosis as a last resort. I began to notice changes immediately. I found immediate relaxation, stress reduction, and a steady weight loss. I went down 25 pounds and I have been able to maintain my weight easily. I have not lost more in the last couple of months due to my own inability to maintain a regimen. It is my fault… Let me tell you, the hypnosis program definitely works. Other people began noticing the difference within 2 to 3 months. Particularly my family who all reacted very positively to the results I was getting. I had no hesitation telling people I was using hypnosis, and I believe that all the changes in my life will be permanent.

          In addition to loosing 25 pounds, I am enjoying clear thinking, less stress, and I have totally quit drinking coffee and soda. I am thinking much more positively. My relationships have improved, and I’m enjoying my life and the people in it much more.

          I’d also like to say that John has been a most supportive therapist. He is caring and very good at his art. The office staff was also most accommodating and caring. Once again, I highly recommend the program and services.

Thank you,

Dianne
