Author Jon Gabriel uses his own remarkable transformation--from 409
pounds to 184 pounds--to show the solution to changing the inner belief
systems that keep our bodies from thin.
The pile of recent dieting books is growing faster than the average
American's waistline. From the well-known programs that deprive and
restrict to ones that rely on juice alone, it seems that everybody has
an answer to the growing problem of obesity.
When Jon Gabriel's life took an unexpected turn, he suddenly was
awakened to the marvelous gift that he had been given -- the opportunity
to live -- and was disgusted at how he had treated his body. At over
four hundred pounds, walking, sleeping, and working was a struggle
against gravity, and his life was a constant battle between emotional
and physical satiation. He was slowly killing himself with food.
Like the estimated 58 percent of Americans, and rising numbers in other
countries, Jon was trapped in what he came to call the FAT - Famine and
Temperature - trap. By studying biochemistry, Gabriel learned 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, weight loss 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.
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.
It certainly worked for Jon; he lost 225 pounds in two-and-a-half years,
going from 409 pounds to 184, without suffering, dieting, or anguishing
over his body. Unlike most people who lose an extensive amount of
weight, his skin tightened up and now is indistinguishable from that of
a person who has been healthy his whole life.
