Default MommyStyle.com 's Smart Technique ? Anyone tried these audio tapes?

Of course I am interested but I am the sucker who paid a doctor to put staples inside my ears and then had to pay another doctor to take them out when they ran the first doctor out of town on a rail.....

I want to believe right now that listening to these tapes will change my mindset and make it automatic to eat right and exercise....I don't want to be taken in by another scam that makes my bank account lose $100 but my scale stay the same.

If you have ordered these tapes and used them please share your experience. I am holding my breath hoping that someone has had success with this program.

TIA

I just got them and would love to find others who are using them! I think they are relaxing and like it so far but of course this is day 1 for me! I have yet to pick out a sensible diet plan yet!

I will tell you what I did. I bought the tapes last fall, but sent them back for a refund, and then bought them again this past spring. I really liked them and felt much more calmer and in control, BUT had a difficult time finding 30 minutes of quiet time to listen. After I sent them back I missed them!!!!

You really need to have an eating plan in place when you start, this time I do. I don't think you can lose as easily as they claim, but they are defiently VERY relaxing. I am more aware of what I am eating and am now thinking about exercise.

They do have a web site for messages and support, I think it is www.providia.com.

Just my 2 Cents here.

If you are going to order these tapes, at least try to get them off of Ebay used from someone else, that way if they don't work as they claim, at least you didn't pay full price for them!

I just purchased these tapes off of e-bay. Why you may ask...well I know what I need to do, I'm just not doing it. I also know that they only plan "for" me is Weight Watchers. The great thing about these tapes are they aren't the weight loss plan, they are the key to making whatever plan you choose work. Ok, so maybe I shouldn't say the word "great" yet. I've only just finished the introduction. Tomorrow I'll start the first disc. I'd like to hear other's opinions of how it's working for them.

Tia: There are more scams out there than people on this website that bought them so don't feel bad! I used to drink that nasty liquid protein back in the late 70's. It was gross and certainly never helped me! I agree with one of the posters. I would definitely use these secondary to a program and not put all your eggs in one basket. They may indeed help you to relax and help gain control of your eating, but you should have a program of eating in place. Good luck to you and success with your weight loss!

girls~
i have them too. i will admit they are very relaxing, but i was listening to them in the am, after my son went to school. i would fall asleep, then not wake up right away. wasted my mornings. so i guess i will drag them back out and try before bed time. i didnt have a diet plan in action at the time, so no results, but you've all inspired me dust them off and try again. thanks!

I bought this program months ago (maybe even a year ago), I didn't have a real diet plan at that time other than tryng to eat vegatarian. Then in June I went on the Atkins Plan and in the beginning of July, I started on the South Beach Diet. I was losing slowly and I mean slowly. Last week, I managed to find the CDs but not the workbook. Decided to listen to the programs on the CDs anyway. By then, I understood what the SBD was all about. The Mommy's program seems to reinforce the diet and it seems to be convincing me to keep up on an exercise regimen. I'm doing some in the morning and another set when I get home from work. I'm seriously thinking of joining Curves. Talk about a real about face, because I have been anti-physical anything for the past 30 years. I think the Mommies Program helps.

Default MOMMY STYLE CD'S

Hi everyone. I have been using these cd's since the end of March and have lost 21 lbs BUT I had the Michael Thurmond plan already in place. These tapes are hypnotic in a sense and for changing bad habits and encouraging new choices for a healthier way of eating etc. I use them before bed and the machine turns itself off. I also remember what is said because I listened to them when awake. lol I found it helped me with cravings and learning how to just say NO to people. There is a lot of info at that www.provida.com site and plenty of people there to ask. You can get any question answered. Good luck to all of you. Oh and yes I got mine on e-bay too. A lot less but no 30 day trial. Take care~ Mel
