 It's the oddest thing! |

| I received the DVD/CD program on 5/18/10 and now one week later I already feel compelled to write a review. First of all, let me say that I do believe in subliminal programming. I have use some other subliminal weigh loss CD's in the past and felt some differences but I could never stick with them for as long as needed, one reason may have been because you had to use headphones and that just was practical for me. In only one week I noticed changes that seem odd for me and out of character and I know the changes are because of this program. Actually I would say the changes started after only 2 days of watching the DVD and listening to the CD. I sleep with the cd on repeat and have found it actually helps me sleep. I work overnights and often have difficulty sleeping during the day; I sleep so much better when I have the CD on. The CD is very soothing and relaxing to me, the audible affirmations you hear don't bother me in the least. I was never able to stay asleep with other programs I tried, maybe because the waves/tones/sounds were unnatural. I love the sound of the running water in this program. Maybe it's a nature thing since before this CD I often slept with my sound machine on the thunderstorm setting. I missed watching the DVD one day but since I listen to the CD so much it seemed to have no affect. For several hours during my shift at work when it is slow and I have nothing to do, I put the CD in my laptop and keep it on repeat and go about my normal bored-at-work routine of playing online, shopping online and reading a book. Oddly enough, I usually have trouble reading at work because I can't focus and it makes me tired, but for some odd reason I can read much easier with the CD on. I do find myself getting antsy for the DVD to be over sometimes, maybe I just have a short attention span but the CD is much easier for me to listen to. Don't get me wrong, I love the DVD, I just have to be in the right setting (which for me is lying in bed relaxing) to fully appreciate it. I am a visual person so the DVD is helpful, I like having something to look at. I feel this program works because of the DVD/CD combo, which makes it so unique compared to all the subliminal CD's floating around out there. Steve Murray knew what he was doing creating a sumbliminal DVD to stand out from all the others, and it works! So here is where the odd part comes in, I now need A LOT less food to feel full and I'm no longer eating "just because". I feel much stronger in my food choices. I also just read "Breaking Free from Emotional Eating" by Geneen Roth and that also helped me to better understand if I'm actually hungry or feeling something else. I often have a feeling in my stomach that I contributed to hunger but after reading Geneen Roth's book I now am understanding and learning the difference and I can let that feeling go and know it's not hunger. When I do eat, I eat much smaller meals. I recently discovered Healthy Choice All Natural Entrees and I love them. I know, I know, processed food... but they work for me. They taste good to me and help with portion control. Its hard for me to cook for myself like I had to with South Beach, they make is easier for me with my lifestyle the way it is. Anywho, normally one small meal wouldn't satisfy me, but now I'm ok after I'm done and sometimes don't even finish it entirely. Please understand I'm a big girl and regularly consume large amounts of food or snack constantly for no reason. I haven't had the desire to binge at all this week, which is not normal for me, you might even say odd! The food aside, I would say the reason I'm writing this right now at 2:30am in the middle of my shift is that because last night at work I WANTED water but the water I brought with me was gone so I bought a Vitamin Water from the vending machine and it did not satisfy me, I just wanted plain water and in fact only drank about half of the Vitamin Water. I should have just bought the plain Aquafina that was in the machine, but I have this mindset that I refuse to pay 1.50 for a bottle of water, in hindsight I would have been happier with the Aquafina and the pop in the machine didn't even appeal to me. Tonight at work I'm sitting here and I'm actually CRAVING water! So I went and got some water and felt that "ahhh" feeling when I took a drink and then I laughed and thought to myself "it's the oddest thing!" I RARELY ever drank just plain water, I always had to have tea, coffee, pop or put drink packets in my water. I hated drinking water plain except for when I was really thirsty or my throat was dry. I would try to choke down plain water whenever I dieted but always ended up using flavor packets after the first glass or bottle. For the first time, I am wanting just plain ol' ice cold water with nothing in it. I gave up pop (or Soda for you weird people :-) several weeks ago and have cheated many times since then, but now I'm not even craving it. If these changes are already here after only one week, I can't imagine how things will be a 3 weeks from now. I don't think I'll stop after the 30 days, maybe I won't watch the DVD after the 30 days but I love the CD so much I would probably still continue to sleep with it on repeat. I will come back after my 30 days are over and leave an update. Oh btw, I weighed myself yesterday and I had lost 2 pounds since the week prior. 2 pounds is not a miraculous number for someone who is an overweight person like myself, but it's been a while since I've seen the scale go in that direction, so I'm happy about it and I know the numbers on the scale will continue to move in the right direction from now on :) |

| I have not had this Subliminal DVD long and I already see a difference in my actions. I find myself making different choices. Healthier choices. This DVD is only 20 minutes long. Perfect to watch on a daily basis. I am smiling each day after I watch it and am ready for a healthier day. I love this DVD |
THIS ONE WORKS!!! I've tried 8 or 10 others that didn't work!!!

| I watch the DVD once a day, on my computer or TV, and listen to the CD as I drive. I have to remind myself to eat!!! After eating just a few bites, I'm full!!! 30-Day Subliminal Weight Loss Program: Lose Fat While Your Unconscious Mind Does The Work (DVD & CD) I've lost 35 pounds so far in about a month and a half. This is an awesome program. I've tried other subliminal weight loss programs before, 8 to 10 times, and they didn't work. THIS ONE WORKS!!! |

This is a CD/DVD set, produced by Steve Murray (hypnotherapist, with 24 self-help DVD and video programs) in 2004. The back cover states that "if you can watch a 20 minute DVD every day for 30 days and listen to a subliminal music CD at least every 3rd day, you can reprogram your unconscious mind to lose fat and live a healthier life.
CD
The 20-minute CD is gentle music with embedded subliminal messages. You do hear some messages, such as "I eat fruits and vegetables; I release all my tension and stress; I eat less sugar and fat; I have fun and enjoy life; I eat smaller portions of food; I do enjoy exercising; I eat until my body is nourished, then stop; etc. Allegedly, the messages repeat while buried within the music, and your subconscious mind will hear them. (I found the audible sentences on the CD could be just a tiny bit clearer, but were still sufficient.)
DVD
The 20-minute DVD provides 4 selection options:
-- Subliminal, How it Works;
-- Directions for the Program;
-- The Subliminal Suggestions; and
-- Subliminal Program.
You will likely only watch the first 3 once, then just go right to the Subliminal Program each time.
You hear mainly gentle piano music, mountain streams gently flowing over rocks, and the same messages as on the CD. First you see the words of the message across the screen, and then you watch the screen while the music plays. The messages are apparently being repeated for your subconscious mind while you watch the scenes. These are pretty scenes, by the way--very peaceful. My first time I watched it, I was really craving fresh cool water.
Will this product help you lose weight?--possibly. I can't say for sure. I have been very successful with subliminal programs in the past. Since 1985, I have successfully used several subliminal programming tapes and CDs to improve my shortcomings (yes--it's true). Once you find a good product, the key is to listen to it/view it for 30 days straight. The program feeds you the same message(s) for 30 days. After 30 days straight, the message usually becomes part of your reality. So, if you listen to something that says "people enjoy being with me" for 30 days straight, you usually accept it as your reality and you become more confident in yourself and you begin to behave in a warm friendly way that attracts people to you and they enjoy being with you. That is how these programs work. They re-program you. But, unless you are prepared to do this for 30 days straight, don't buy it. It takes that commitment to make the behavioral change effective. The good thing is that this program requires almost no effort, except to put a CD/DVD into the player and sit in front of the viewing device. So, every day you pop in a 20-minute DVD and every couple of days you pop the CD in the car while you commute to work (or play at home while cooking). Many people buy something like this, watch it for a couple of days, stop watching, and then complain that it doesn't work. Good subliminal programs do usually work, if you use them correctly.
I must honestly say though that of all the subliminals, the weight loss has been the most difficult program for me.

| I can't tell if the underlying subliminal thing works or not because it refuses to play on any computer DVD drive to which I have access. It ONLY plays on the DVD drive on my TV, which is hopelessly impractical. I tried asking Mr Murray about this and got a prompt but dismissive answer "you must be using old technology." I'm the opposite of impressed, right now. |
