On second thought, having to "hook your finger behind the bars to keep from sliding forward" is not a solution. I can't believe a professional fitter would suggest such a thing, especially to someone planing on riding long distances. Go get your money back and find a fitter that knows what he/she is doing.
^^^ This.
Three of my bike offer great ride comfort without any unwanted pressure on the hands, but my newest bike is creating a tingling sensation which is an indicator of a serious problem.
You should feel balanced in your saddle without the issue of sliding forward. In-fact you should easily ride no-handed even with your torso angled forward. You hands should be operating the bike, not resisting gravity.
