Mum who comfort ate her way to a size 20 sheds staggering 7st in her SLEEP
At her heaviest the 27-year-old tipped the scales at 17st - but she says a hypnosis app changed her relationship with food for good
A MUM who gorged on junk food - regularly scoffing crisps, chocolate and takeaways – claims she hypnotised herself slim in her sleep using a £6.99 app.
Janine Dooley turned to food for comfort after a terrifying home invasion in March 2010 where she was confronted by an axe-wielding stranger.
“By this point, I’d spent hundreds on dieting. The app was only £6.99 – I had nothing to lose,” she said.
Downloading it in November 2017, it was the miracle Janine had been looking for – helping her to drop five dress sizes to a 10 and to slim down to just 10st 4lb.
She has also rediscovered her love of exercise.
“I would play the hypnosis app every night as I fell asleep, so its message was being relayed to my sub-conscious,” she said.
“The app teaches you four main things – eat slowly, only eat when you’re actually hungry, eat what you want, not what you can and stop when you feel full.
“It’s completely reprogrammed my thinking. Everyone is so amazed. But I have finally learned when to stop eating.
“Much more relaxed, I can also deal with my teenage trauma now. I have more time to enjoy my family, friends and my work, too, now my life is no longer controlled by food.”
