"I’ve always had a sweet tooth for chocolate, sweets, and sugar in my tea. No matter how much I tried, I couldn’t resist grabbing something sweet after every meal. It wasn’t just a craving, it was an addiction. For as long as I can remember, I hid my stash from my kids, tucking it into teacups at the back of the cupboard or deep in a drawer, hoping no one would find it.
Diabetes runs in my family, and as my weight kept climbing, I could feel my health starting to slip. I knew I was headed down the same path, but I couldn’t stop the constant need for sugar. Sugar in my tea. Custard creams with my tea. Strawberry jam on my toast. Dessert after dinner.
The wake-up call came when my mum was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. Watching her take daily insulin injections hit me hard. I realised that I was on the same dangerous track, but I was still living in denial. My weight was steadily increasing, and I couldn’t control my cravings. I knew I had to change, but nothing I tried had worked. Cutting sugar from my tea wasn’t enough. My relationship with food had got out of hand and I didn’t know how to fix it.
When I found Clear Minds, I didn’t expect it to work. I was still sceptical. But it did. After using their hypnotherapy sessions, something shifted in me. Slowly, the cravings for sugar started to fade. I no longer needed that sugar rush with my tea or a custard cream. I could feel my control returning. I wasn’t hiding sweets anymore. I didn’t feel guilty about food. Instead, I felt at peace and empowered, with a healthier mindset. My fear of diabetes no longer looms over me, and I can honestly say I feel better than I have in years.
I used Clear Minds’ Hypnotic Gastric Band sessions and the Controlling Sugar recommendations. These tools were incredibly effective and helped me break free from my sugar cravings. The team at Clear Minds was amazing, supportive, and knowledgeable. They guided me through the process and the community encouraged me every step of the way."
