Can't speak specifically to Positive Changes, but wanted to share a little information about hypnosis and weight loss from the National Women's Health Resource Center Inc.
Weight loss: Hypnosis seems to help with low-to-moderate weight loss, but generally only when combined with some sort of behavioral weight-management program.
Not everyone can be hypnotized. Susceptibility varies, and about 10 to 20 percent of us can't be hypnotized at all. For most uses, however, it's not essential that you be highly hypnotizable to achieve results.
Hypnosis may not be for you if you have certain psychological conditions—particularly those caused by chemical imbalances in the brain. If you suffer from psychosis, severe depression (or another organic psychiatric condition) or antisocial personality disorder, you should probably not attempt hypnosis. These conditions require different forms of treatment; hypnosis is not considered an appropriate treatment option.

Have you tried other weight-loss programs with any degree of success?
