Barbara Lathrop Lost 63 Pounds of Depressing Fat
Capital Hypnosis: What was your life like before you came to
Capital Hypnosis?
Barbara Lathrop: I was depressed. I had sleep problems, and
I just had a general down feeling. I guess that is depression anyway.
Can I ask how much you weighed before you came here?
I weighed well over 200 pounds. I actually don't know how much I weighed because I don't
like the scale. But I did know how much I weighed at... at the doctor's office. And
then it was months after that before I came in here. So I knew I had put on weight.
My clothes didn't fit. I didn't feel good about myself and I had every right to feel
good about myself. My life was great. The only problems were within... within me and
that is why this program has helped so much.
And how much weight did you lose initially with Capital Hypnosis?
Well, I considered myself all my weight has been lost through Capital Hypnosis. But that
is the beauty of the program although I don't see you on a regular basis any longer I still
continue the program. And to date it has been 69 pounds. And a few more inches... ounces,
but, well, we'll round it out.
And when you reported to me last year that you lost 63 pounds in eight months, that was
accurate, wasn't it?
Oh, yes, very much so.
Ok, how did you know?
Because I had been to the doctor's office and had my annual physical and then that is
what the weight was.
And I do... I do weigh myself once a month just to... to keep myself on track and to...
not because I am worried about the scale, it is just that it helps prove to me that
I am doing what I need to do.
And what were the other successes... what were the other secrets that helped you succeed?
The other secrets... well, I bumped up my exercise program and, frankly, I love it.
I really do. It is so nice to be able to move and do things that I feel good for me.
The other secrets are eating the correct foods and enjoying them and not liking the greasy
stuff anymore. The program has given me so many tools to deal with what used to be my
nemesis. No, oh boy, I just want the good stuff.
And how long have you kept the weight off?
Over a year, way over a year. Let's see. I would say it is... 11 months, no 13 months,
13 months. I don't know.
Capital Hypnosis: Are you... are you sure it is 13 months that
it is...?
Well, yeah.
Ok. It has been over a year.
Yes.
Ok.
Barbara Lathrop: And I think the 63 pounds was in August of
last year and this is now September so...
And would you say that it has been worth the money?
Absolutely. Absolutely. It is not only the weight loss that has been so successful, but
it has been my whole... my whole lifestyle is so improve. I no longer take the... the
medications I used to take. I... I sleep beautifully. I have enthusiasm. I am much more outgoing
than I used to be. I have a lot of pride and life is very good.
How has, you know, hypnosis helped you improve your marriage?
Well, it has allowed me to think in terms of a global aspect and not pin point just
certain things, you know. I used to sort of hone in on. Now I think of broader perspective.
I see things more globally and that is very helpful when trying to understand another
individual. I don't limit myself to certain areas. I... I try to see the whole picture.
And what else has improved? You mentioned sleep. You felt sad before.
Yes, oh, no longer sad. I have no depression whatsoever. And I... it was all self-induced
depression because I was feeling so bad about myself not being able to control my life.
Now I have control.
And... It feels good.
Have you been clothes shopping?
Yes, yes, yes.
What is that like?
Oh, it is fun. It is wonderful to find clothes that fit my new body and not to hide under
my clothes. I used to hide under boxy shapes. I don't do that any more. Now I show off what
I have.
So how has that improved your life?
Well, it makes every day much brighter. Every day is a positive thing. Every day I greet
with... with thanks that I am here to enjoy it and that I have something to look forward
to, because every day is a blessing.
Would you recommend Capital Hypnosis to people who want to lose weight?
I would recommend Capital Hypnosis to anyone who has a concern. Weight loss is one thing.
And that was my biggest problem I thought when I came here. But I have also been able
to deal with other issues that were concerning to me. So I... yes, by all means. If you have
a weight problem, see if it will help you. They won't accept you as a client unless you
can be helped.
Oh, yeah. You had mentioned the screening that is true.
Yeah, that's right.
And did you... did you feel good that there was a guarantee as well?
Absolutely. I felt like I was spending my money at the right spot and that I had someone
there who was rooting for my success.
