Yes, I believe they are. I've been using myself as a guinea pig and have been blessed with positive results.
From age 19 onwards I struggled with my weight and would go up and down like a yo-yo. I controlled my weight in my 20's with dangerously low calorie crash diets, anorexia and bullemia. Once I gave up the eating disorders, my weight crept up to 250 or so pounds.
It never interfered with my career (computer consulting, at the time) or ability to find boyfriends but it was always a thorn in my side. It wasn't until I turned 40 that I realized how much weight I carried was directly related to the relationship I was in. For example, if I was in a relationship where the boyfriend had the potential of physical violence, I put on weight. If the boyfriend was mellow and nonviolent, I stayed the same, ate normal, even dropped some at times. It was evident the weight would come on for protection.
To make a long story short, over time I made peace with being a size 22, however, I really didn't like it. I prefer to shop in normal stores for a size 12 or 14, even a 16. Over the years, sexy plus sized fashions and boutiques have popped up but they are still in the minority. I am being honest, ladies (and gentlemen). I don't want to remain plus sized for the rest of my life.
However, what do we do when we want to lose weight? We diet! Diet is a 4 letter word. I associate it with starvation and deprivation. I hate counting calories. I hate counting carbs, fat grams, what have you. And when I want a chocolate bar, I fucking want a chocolate bar, ok! We have hormones and cravings are a natural part of being a female.
I am a spiritualist and "working witch". I am often asked for weight loss spells. And to be honest, I have worked with different things during the Waning Moon with promising results but they were never quite what I was after. They felt like a quick fix and did not feel right.
Until recently. See, I practice Santeria as a religion, a magical system and a way of life. We have various dieties and forces of nature that we can invoke for good or for bad. I personally choose to work good or constructive magic but that is a personal choice. One of our goddesses rules the 4 winds, change, the cemetary, etc. It occurred to me that perhaps I needed to work on the INTERNAL CHANGES within myself because I found that even though I resolved enough issues to slowly drop to the low 200's, I could not get below.
And again, I hate dieting. I like swimming and aerobics but I hate deprivation and unnecessary mathematics (i.e. counting fat grams, etc).
It occurred to me to invoke this goddess and ask for the INNER CHANGES required to drop below 200 lbs. In this religion, we have to work. We don't just say "Bring me a million dollars, please". We have to do offerings, prayer, do money baths, blow money powder, do ongoing ritual, etc.
I was prepared to do whatever it took. When I petitioned this goddess to help me with the INNER CHANGES required INTERNALLY to drop below 200, which I had not been in over 20 years, I knew I had to accept the consequences. I knew things could be painful, especially if the shit keeping on those last so many pounds was intense. But I was up for the challenge.
The results? I am now 198 pounds!
I did not diet. I do not have time to go to the gym. I did not have time to do those bellydancer dvd's I spent a fortune on. I ate when I felt like it. I even ate pizza when I felt like it. And chips.
However. (Yes, there is ALWAYS a however). I did not feel like a lot of pizza or chips. I have automatically added a lot of fresh fruit and salad to my daily consumption. It was natural and effortless and it is what I want to eat. I know there are times, maybe for hormonal reasons, I want popcorn, chips, salty or sweet things but so what. I am not gaining from these things. My cravings have changed. Painlessly and effortlessly.
I don't know when I will drop below 190 but it will happen when I am ready. Right now I am dealing with the stuff that is coming up for transmutation NOW, that being the stuff that 200+ pounds was hiding and keeping down.
And I am now ready to start helping other people with this type of thing. However (here we go again with another HOWEVER), I feel at this time I can only offer my services for those who are struggling with their weight from abuse, violence, etc. If you have gained 10 lbs over the winter from lack of outdoor sports, I cannot help you NOW but maybe in the future. For now, I can only help prisoners and you all know who you are.
Please feel free to contact me if you would like to know more or think I can help you. If you don't know why you have the weight or have any clue about its underlying issues, I can help you too. I am also a spiritual councellor. I can find out in a reading what happened to cause you to be in this situation.
A lot of you have a long way to go, weightwise. The spiritual work I do is on a monthly basis. For how long, you ask? I have no idea. We are all different and a lot of us are going to be in this for the long haul. Internal change can be quick or slow, depending on the person, but it WILL be permanent.
I will not turn anyone away due to cost. Talk to me. That is why I am here.
