"Great all round health book."
5 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

I did do my research before buying this book so I thought I knew what I was in for, and yet it still managed to blow my expectations.

I have tried a lot of weight loss techniques before (along with the writer of this book) and to begin with you lose weight, but it would never stay off. The Gabriel Method is the most all round weight loss scheme I have ever come across, it covers everything from why you are fat – the emotional and physical reasons, to how to go about identifying and changing these reasons. It explains how factors like stress can cause you to be fat and goes on to give advice on how to lower your stress levels.

I call the book a wight loss scheme because the author states early on that it is in no way a diet, which is true no where does it say what you should and should not eat. Instead it looks at the bigger picture and goes from there.

In the introduction Jon Gabriel lists three things he is going to ask you to do:

  1. Never go a single day without adding the nutrients your body is starving for.
  2. Spend at least ten minutes a day practicing visualisation techniques talked about in the book.
  3. Listen to your heart and to your body.

I looked at that list and though “eat every day, think for ten min and listen to my body, I can do that.”

I am please to say that within the first week of reading this book I lost 1kg, without dieting or exercise. I cant tell you how much I have lost in total now because I reached a point in the book where it said not to weigh yourself for the first six months. I can say that I know I have lost more weight because I can see the changes.

I highly recommend this book to anyone who has ever struggled with weight loss, I have already recommended it to friends and family members and am looking forward to showing them the long term results of The Gabriel Method.

Description

Jon Gabriel lost over 100 kilos without dieting or surgery and amazingly his body shows almost no sign of ever having been morbidly obese. His totally unique and groundbreaking approach to losing weight is backed by solid, cutting edge obesity research from over four years of full-time investigation of the roles of biochemistry, neurobiology, quantum physics and human consciousness in weight-loss.

The result is a method that defies "common sense wisdom" and yet achieves dramatic lasting benefits. After reading The Gabriel Method, you will learn:

  • Your body has a reason why it's holding on to weight--and it's not your fault.
  • Fat is a cushion--a protective barrier that our mind believes is helping to protect us.
  • If you can change that belief, you can change your body; Stop the cycle of crash dieting and start eating what you want, when you want it.
  • How to choose healthy, nutritious foods that nourish the cells in your body, not starve them.
  • Delicious shakes and smoothies, and super-power supplements, that can jump start your success.
  • The simple way you can train your mind and body to work with your goal of health, not against it.
Eliminate the emotional and mental reasons your body holds on to weight in just 10 minutes a day.

Celebrity obesity survivors like Muhammad Ali's daughter Khaliah and Robin Moran, star of The Discovery Channel's show Super Obese, are strong advocates of Jon's Weightloss approach, which has also been featured on A Current Affair and Today/Tonight in Australia as well as on numerous radio shows and newspaper articles internationally. In addition to telling Jon's own story of his amazing transformation, the book reveals why diets don't work and explains a truly unique and revolutionary diet-free way to lose weight. It's based on the fact that your body has an internal logic that determines how fat or thin you will be at any given time. The way to lose weight is not to struggle or to force yourself to lose weight but to understand this internal logic and work with it so that your body wants to be thinner. When your body wants to be thinner, weightloss is inevitable and becomes automatic and effortless. You simply crave less food, you crave healthier foods, your metabolism speeds up and you become very efficient at burning fat, just like a naturally thin person. And that's the real transformation - to transform yourself into a naturally thin person, so that you can eat whatever you want whenever you want and still be thin, fit and vibrantly healthy.

Author Biography

Jon Gabriel has a Bachelor of Science in Economics from the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania. While there, he also pursued extensive coursework in biochemistry and performed research for the internationally recognized biochemist Dr. Jose Rabinowitz. In 1990 Jon started gaining weight for no apparent reason. He tried every diet and program he could to lose weight but in the end, he just kept gaining. The more he dieted, the more he gained. The situation became critical in mid 2001 when he became morbidly obese and reached a weight of over 400 pounds (182 kilos). On September 11, 2001 he was scheduled to fly from Newark to San Francisco and it was only by a fluke of fate that he was not on the United Airlines flight 93 that was hijacked by terrorists. This event, as well as some equally life changing events that occurred in the weeks following 9/11 affected him deeply. It was this wake up call that made him realize life was precious opportunity not to be wasted. He decided to start 'living the life of his dreams'. He also decided to apply all of his research skills and scientific background toward understanding and eliminating the real reasons he was fat. The result is arguably one of the most remarkable physical transformations of all time. Jon lost over 225 pounds (103 kilos) without dieting and without surgery. Amazingly, his body shows almost no signs of ever being overweight at all - a fact that has astounded many professionals in the medical community. Using the approach that has worked so well for him, he has now made it his life's mission to assist others in achieving tremendous success, not only in weightloss, but in every aspect of life.
