I meet so many people coming doe hypnotherapy for weightloss, where the problem has become the cure. Weight gain can be due to sexual trauma or just normal trauma. This can happen due to the numbing disassociation or due to the protectiveness for women that comes from sexual attention when they are overweight. This is all done subconsciously as a protective measure by the subconscious. The way forward is to deal with the trauma and then weight loss is possible. This can be done using EMDR.
