But in some cases such 'warnings' in childhood can lead to a lifetime of overeating, says Lois Tilbrook, who practises hypnotherapy and psychotherapy in Cambridge.

She explains that hypnotherapy can help with overeating where countless diets have failed because it gets to the root of the problem.

'Weight control does have an emotional component and often the reasons why a person eats a lot goes back to childhood,@ she says. 'In one case a woman was overeating and couldn't understand why.Through hypnotherapy she discovered that she had been told as a child to 'eat up' or she'd die.So for the rest of her life she 'ate up.''.

People with weight problems often talk themselves into eating more than their body needs, Lois explains. 'They say things like 'I don't each much, I've only have one orange all day.' They deceived themselves at a conscious level.' They can be helped through positive visualisation and then being encouraged towards their goal.

Lois says: 'People know that if they want to lose weight they have to eat good things and exercise. :But if they are depressed they might not be able to do that on their own.'

I thought hypnotherapy worked by making a person feel repulsed by the sight of 'bad foods' such as chocolate, but it is much more subtle. 'it's more about recognising what your body needs, so you might find a box of chocolates unappealing.It's about realising the connection between your body and mind.

IF YOU'VE got the hump, a visit to Lois Tilbrook could be just the ticket.

Dr Tilbrook, an all-rounder if ever there was one - anthropologist, psychologist, painter, sculptor, and now psychotherapist, has launched a new practice in Cambridge which she hopes will help stressesd-out businessfolk.

"I am very interested in working with people who feel they have a hump and want to get over it," she says, "and it is very rewarding to see people achieve this."In less stiff-necked countries, like the US and Dr Tilbrook's own Australia, what she is offering would be described as a visit to the shrink.Her leaflets currently circulating in Cambridge call it "better outcomes therapy", including hypnotherapy.

Her targets are the stressed executives who feel themselves to be under attack, eat and drink too much to try and feel better.

They may be close to opting out of work or they may be battling on, almost literally, fighting everyone in sight.

Word is getting round about Dr Tilbrook and her appointments book is filling up.She is married to super boffin, Dr Tony Hooley, founder of 1 ? Ltd at St John's Innovation Centre, and is already a well-known figure in the tech circuit in her own right - she has been commissioned to create etchings for the London Stock Exchange's Techmark Awards.

As an artist she runs classes and special weekends and is an expert in art history as well as the hands-on stuff.

One of the aspects of being an artist has guided her towards psychotherapy, the sitting for long periods with her sculpture subjects, talking in depth about the important things in life."Men in particular come to see me," she says, "sometimes after carrying one of my pamphlets around for a while.

Lois trained in psychotherapy and hypnotherapy and now has a practice in Cambridge.Her academic background includes anthropology and history, and she has wide working experience including business, education and organisation.She is particularly interested in the application of creative solutions to stress, especially as this affects prformance.

"The therapeutic relationship, based on total trust and cofidentiality, is the cornerstone of successful therapy.The dedicated personal attention by someone who is outside of the situation, and trained to listen and to spot and relate patterns of thought and behaviour, can prove invaluable to an individual seeking to draw their thoughts together and sort out their emotions.Life experience of the therapist helps, there is nothing like it."
