Jacqui - Weight Loss Chronicle Update - May 5, 2006

It's been barely 8 weeks since I saw Dr. Helle for weight loss.

I have lost 16 pounds! I can't stop grinning! I'm thrilled, as are my doctor and her staff. The ladies reading this will probably understand: I feel like my heart is smiling. I've lost more inches than those 16 pounds would indicate. My clothes are hanging on me. I wash everything in hot water and using the hottest setting on the dryer because I don't want to purchase any new clothes yet.

This is such a miracle.

You may see a little of yourself in my life-long, frustrating struggle:

All my life, I've had a difficult time losing weight. I always seemed to have 20-40 pounds to lose. Since menopause, my weight ballooned. I didn't stop working at it, though. I tried many of the popular programs out there. I even tried a wildly popular prescription about 6 months before it was pulled from the market. (No heart damage, thank God.) It didn't matter what program I joined or prescription I took, or how much I exercised - I never lost more than 15 pounds no matter how long I was on a particular program (usually at least 12 months).

Over the years, I had a difficult time coping with the disbelief on the faces of medical staff as they looked over my food and exercise diary. One doctor told me, "Look on the bright side - if there was a world-wide famine, you'll outlive everyone." He actually smiled. Lord only knows what was going through his mind as he said this. I did not find it amusing nor reassuring nor kind. I don't see him anymore.

There's a phrase for people like me: weight loss resistant. (I heard it on good ol' Dr. Phil's show, so it must be true . I thought if this is the way it's going to be, then I'll work at being the healthiest fat lady I can be. I was walking 5 to 10 miles per week. I also worked at resistance training 3-5 times per week for at least 30 minutes each session, getting my heart rate up to between 120 and 138 for those 30 minutes. I took off some inches but the scales didn't go down.

In early February, I had a medical scare. I'm found out I'm diabetic. Well...my doctor's diabetes educator looked at the report and told me she considered me "pre-diabetic, but conduct yourself as if you were diabetic." For several weeks, I experienced anxiety attacks. Then I gave up. I was so tired of the constant struggle, and told God I can't do this by myself. That's when I thought of Dr. Helle. I felt a glimmer of hope as I thought of how she'd helped me stop smoking over 17 years ago.

Jacqui – Spokane Valley WA

I’m healthy today in large part because of Dr. Jane Helle.

I started smoking when I was around 13 years old and smoked for almost 30 years.  For several years, I smoked almost 4 packs a day, which is not impossible when you take deep drags and chain smoke.  My addiction would wake up in the middle of the night for a cigarette.  During the years I smoked, I was constantly fighting colds, sinus infections, bronchitis and pneumonia.

I switched to a lighter cigarette, believing the tobacco companies “line” that a light cigarette would do less harm, and thinking this would be a good interim step to wean myself off them altogether.  Well, that didn't happen.  I tried so hard to stop on my own.  I failed each time, which made me feel like a failure no matter how successful I was in other areas of my life. 

I was at the end of my rope and finally admitted I needed some serious help to overcome this nicotine and menthol addiction.  I thank God for my co-worker who recommended Dr. Helle and hypnosis.  I stepped out in faith and made three appointments with her.  By my third appointment, I forgot I’d been a smoker. 

That was in July 1988.  I can’t even begin to estimate the financial savings in doctors, prescriptions, and sick days from work, let alone the priceless savings of my health.  But I can tell you this:  I just did some rough calculations and estimate I would have spent over $17,000.00 on cigarettes if I hadn't stopped smoking.

Hello my name is Eric and I bought your stop drinking cd and listened to it when I went to bed on DECEMBER 5th 2005 and to this day I have not had a craving for any alcohol. I just wanted to say thanks and I will be purchasing another cd from you in the future. My girlfriend and all my friend think it's weird with me not drinking anymore, I think that I will never touch a beer again and knowing that for me is the best feeling that I could have. Now I want you to help me with a strong mental game for disc golf if you have anything that could help me there that would be great

Thanks again the non drinking Eric

Dear Dr. Helle:

Before visiting you and experiencing your method of hypnotherapy, I attended a group session and also a private session with another therapist. Neither impressed me nor provided success in realizing weight reduction.

Since our first session, I will attest to having been thrilled at the results you were able to produce. I had hoped to lose as much as 35 pounds. Happily, I have lost 27 and now realize that I can lose as much as I want. I've experienced no cravings or desire for more food or for foods that are unhealthy or detrimental to weight control.

I am more energetic, feel better, and am told I look younger.

What more can I say? I'm happy, thrilled, and will be glad to confirm all this to anyone whom you may want me to provide a testimonial or reference.

Sincerely,

Bob Irish

Ten years ago I came to you for help in quiting smoking. At that time I could hardly make it up the three flights of stairs to your office I had to stop to catch my breath. My Doctor had told me I had to quit I was runining my health. My lungs were shot, I couldn't breath lying down and had developed a horrible cough and each winter had become one bout of bronchitis after the other. I had tried to quit many times and had used the gum , patches and support groups to no avail. When I walked in I was a two pack a day smoker and had been smoking since the age of 14. I loved the whole ritual of smoking from the first one in the morning with coffee to the last one at night. After my first session with you I walked out of your office and heve never smoked again. I did come back for a second visit and purchased the tape and did listen to it for several weeks. I have never had the desire to smoke again and cancelled my third appointment I had scheduled with you. I just did not need to come in again this worked so well.

Well here I am again and this time for weight management and again with my Doctor telling me I had to get some weight off for health reasons. I was diaganoised a few years ago with arthritis and because I can't take any of the anti-inflamatory drugs due to allergies my physical activity level had decreased to the extent I moved only as much as I had to and I had packed on the weight as a result which was causing considerable pain in my legs. Like a lot a ladies I have been engaged in the basttle of the bulge for many years and tried one diet after another and always gained the weight back but could still stay in good shape because of the type of work I did (very physical).

About 5 years ago my manfacturing job went to Mexico and I went back to school to brush up on my office and computer skills and transiitioned into office work. So I came to you with classic secretarial spread (self inflicted) and very painful joints. When I limped up the stairs to your office this time I could barely bend my left knee. While we were discussing my reasons for comming to you again and what I hoped to gain you mentioned that you could also combine some touch healing with the weight loss session. I had no idea that you were doing this as well and thought why not, so that was blended into the session as well. At the end of the session I could bend my knee and was almost pain free. I had very little pain going down the stairs from your office and the pain continued to abate over the next week with a sensation almost of flowing out of my leg thru the sole of the foot. I slept thru the night for the first time in weeks. In our second session I still had just a little pinch of pain in the knee and you worked on that and I'm pain free. I am so pleased and grateful. Ilisten to my tape for weight control every night and I have just a couple of funny things to pass along about that. I have never been one to measure food, but the next morning I measured a cup of breakfast cereal and thought where did that Idea come from, so I'm thinking the suggestion was in there somewhere. Also my husband asked , during dinner, what I was doing and said if I didn't pick up my fork and stop talking I was going to be eating all night. What I was doing was taking a bite putting down the fork and chewing and then talking and not picking up the fork to eat again. I was taking my time and not rushing. There has been no in between meal snacking, no late night snacking, no candy, no pastry and this is no small accoplishment. At work where candy is everywhere and birthdays are always celebrated with cake I just am not tempted the interest is not there and I don't miss it. The weight is slowly comming off I can feel the body changes and I have started my TaiChi classes again with no pain. Another thing that is very different for me is that the compulsion with the "number of pounds lost" just is not present. I'ts not about the numbers it's about the way I feel and that is very liberating indeed. I just feel good. Thank you so much and please feel free to post this on your web site.

A last minute comment...

Dr. Helle.

Thank you, Dr. Helle. As you know, I have been coming to you for healing treatments for my liver disease. (Hep C). I contacted this disease in 1982 from a transfusion and was diagnosed in 1992. I was devastated and was told that most people with HVC, either ends up with liver cancer or cirrhosis of the liver.

The only medical treatment to try and kill the virus is a treatment called interferon, which is a chemically treatment. This treatment can cause many horrible side effects. In some cases death.

I was recently told I would have to start to consider doing the interferon treatments. My liver was showing signs of the disease progression. I had heard that you do healings, my thoughts were, I would give it a try before going to the treatments that could potentially end my life.

After going to you for only 5 healing sessions,(painless) I want you to know; I recently had blood work done. All of my levels were at normal range; I had not seen my liver panel at a normal range for 5 years. I went home and looked at my entire past tests, to be sure I had not looked at my numbers wrong. Dr. Helle they are truly at the normal range once again.

I was amazed; I made an appointment with my Dr. for him to review the results of the blood work. He had the tests run again; they came back with the same readings. All of my liver tests are normal again. His words were WOW, what have you done differently. I informed him of the healings. To my surprise he is very open to alternative methods of healing.

I didn't know if I should cry, laugh or scream for the world to see what has happen. I can't thank you enough and thank god each day for your gift. In the words of my Dr.     WOW!.

Thank you Dr. Helle.

Dear Dr. Helle;

You truly have a healing touch. I had Arthoscopy Surgery on my left shoulder on January 14 because of injuries and arthritis. The Doctor had told me that I would not be able to use my arm for 3 to 4 months. I saw you the day before Surgery and you used your "healing touch" on me. Two week after Surgery I was using my arm. The Doctor couldn’t believe how fast I was healing. The Physical Therapist that I’m seeing can’t believe how fast I’ve healed. I have all the strength and movement back in my arm and shoulder. It has been at least two years since I have had this much use of my arm and without pain.

Thank you so much...

Sincerely,

Helen Sargent

I have known Dr. Jayne Helle for more than twenty years. I first went to her when I was going through burnout. I was so stressed out from a demanding job, three teenagers, and an invalid husband, that I was walking around with tears running down my face all the time. I credit Dr. Helle with helping me out of that black hole I was in. With Hypno-therapy, I was able to let go of the things that were causing me so much stress and get on with my life. I can enjoy life again. Now I am going to her for Weight Loss and it is working. I am very thankful to God and Dr. Helle for helping me out when I needed it most.

I was referred to Dr. Helle by my doctor to help me to quit smoking. I had tried the patches, the gum and even cold turkey. I was unable to quit totally. I always went back to smoking after a few days.

My health was starting to suffer due to smoking so I was willing to try anything. I made my appointment with Dr. Helle and thought its worth a try. I had my last smoke on my way to the session.

It has been a little over 4 weeks and I have no desire to go back to smoking. I actually have a sense of freedom I haven't felt for a long time.

Thank you Dr. Jane for your help! I highly recommend your program.

Truly -- you have a magical gift and you are very very special. The healing forces of people like you (how very rare they are!) keep people like me from crossing that strange line into depair and self-destruction. I can't begin to tell you how many days, how many hours I have spent with your soothing voice on the "Stop Insomnia" tape. I can never begin to understand. Or battle the problem by myself.

Again, I am so thankful for your power and your grace -

Your CD on Positive Thinking and Bringing Love into your life are the best.  They taught me to believe in myself.   I have learned with the help of the CD and Tapes to take responsibility for who I am and why I am where I am at in my life.

I found my attitude was everything.  I have done a complete change in my life.  I am no longer the wounded person walking around.

Thank you for all of the great self series and I look forward to a bright and healthy future.

Sincerely,

Dr. Jane

I wanted to thank you for the wonderful self help series.  I have purchased several different CD's within the series for friends and family.  We have all had exceptional results and will/have recommend them to others.  The CD/tapes can be listen to almost anywhere, they are upbeat and positive.

I purchased the"Stop Drinking CD" several months ago and listen to it as instructed and to this day I have not had a desire to have that drink of alcohol.  Please continue with the wonderful work you do.  I can't tell you how much you are helping myself and others.

Thank you Dr. Jane.

My warmest thanks,

Sue

Dear Dr Jane Helle,

I can not begin to express my gratitude for your help.

As you know I have been in sales for a very long time and had reached a point in my career where I was starting to doubt my abilities and skills.

Through your wonderful talents I have gained my confidence back as well as my technique. Within the first week my cold calls doubled and were more effective. I was able to close on some larger accounts and this will increase my income.

I am having more fun at work and feel like nothing can stop me from being a success.

Thank you for your help.

Sincerely

I have found a miracle woman. Dr. Jane Helle has helped me deal with relationship issues, self-confidence issues and health issues. I can honestly say that, without her help these past years, I would not be happily married, confident and pain free. Although I don't understand how Dr. Helle accomplishes all these miracles, I am living proof that she can help anyone eliminate negativity and start moving in positive directions. When you think and feel with positivity, you can be sure that all areas of your life will become clear and fruitful. I urge others to embrace Dr. Helle's teachings and support.

RE: Dr. Feel Good

Dr. Feel Good has helped me take the time to reflect on what my priorities are and make sure I remember what my focus should be. It's a good investment of an hour to maintain focus.

Joan Hubbard

Dr. Helle has been instrumental in driving my Type "A" personality down to a calmer state-of-mind. The ability to get in a calmer state-of-mind by managing stress has improved my health and general well-being. Dr. Helle balances body and mind for a calmer, more peaceful way of living life. She's made the rest of my life!

From Carrie Garner

Since going to Dr. Helle, I have been self motivated to lose weight, which I had not been able to do before. Dr. Helle instills within the person a desire to accomplish that which had not been foremost in the mind before. I truly believe by sessions and the various tapes that you can acquire your desired goal weight without taking dangerous drugs and starving yourself. Also, she teaches you to take care and love your body.

Sincerely,

From Vern L. Potter

July 1st has become a new birthday for me to celebrate. I have been smoke-free for the last eight years and I have Dr. Helle to thank for this. She worked on my smoking habit (two packs a day for twenty years) and since that first session I became a non-smoker. I wouldn't have believed this was possible if you had asked me before I went to her.

I am so thankful for her skill and I highly recommend her to you.
