Anyone else tried this? My friend recomended it to me after having some great results with it. I have been overweight all my life and I trust the friend, so I dove in.
I can honestly say its the single best method of diet and health I have ever read. Never have I felt like this that I can remember; even when I was losing weight before, it was a chore, a hassle, a non stop battle of cravings and will power. I got down to 190, my lowest weight to date (since like, grade 8) and over the course of 4 months, a full course load at college, a part time job and financial woes, I gained back almost 25 lbs. That is because I never got past the MENTAL reasons that I was overweight, but that is a lot to get in to. Needless to say I was devastated. It took me over 6 months to get in to that shape, and to go from that to not being able to wear certain clothes was just depressing. I cannot stress how powerful the Gabriel Method can be IF you allow it.
His method is simple: if your body wants to be fat, it will be fat, and if it wants to be thin, it will be thin. This is just my interpretation, and he has a much more intelligible way of putting it. He also has a strong biochemistry background. His biggest asset though, is his achievement. He went from 425 lbs in 2001 to 180 in 2 years and has kept it off for close to 5 years. He has no loose skin, and did not diet once. He eats very healthy, but as he will explain, his body WANTS to be healthy. He did tonnes of research on the chemistry of starvation, and what causes our body to put on fat. He calls them the FAT programs, or Famine and Temperature, and claims if these programs are on in your brain, it doesnt matter what you do, you will stay fat. You can exercise, eat well, but there will be a binge or a relapse and it is not out of weakness, laziness or stupidity, but that your body is ultimately in control, and if it wants to be fat in order to be safe, there is nothing you can do about it.
Again, I am simplifying. He is also huge on visualization, and his book comes with a cd to listen to at bed. He also recomends meditation, de stressing, positive energy, and is big on eating live, organic foods and taking omega 3 supplements. It is a very Eastern approach, and he mentions energy, vitality, and other "intangible" things that to some may seem like bs. I am very open to that though, and am familiar and open to the Law of Attraction, as illustrated in movies like The Secret and What the Bleep do we Know, and the premise that our thoughts and emotions have an energy to them. His method is programming your subconsious mind to WANT to be thin, so that your body takes control. It craves live, healthy, organic, vibrant foods, it has a strong desire to run, to jump, to get to the gym and destress, or jsut head to the park and sprint. Once you program your brain, rewire it so to speak, weight loss is effortless and acheiving your ideal body, without dieting or struggling, is attainable.
This post may be long, and muddled, and will most likely not do Jon Gabriel justice. I am hoping that a few people who have struggled with weight and obesity will check it out, with an open mind, and change their lives. I cannot stress enough how good I feel, and how I am finally in control of food. I never, in my 20 something years of conscious life, have been truly in control until recently.
check out the site, thegabrielmethod.com, and there is also a good torrent on Download music, movies, games, software! The Pirate Bay - The world's most resilient BitTorrent site called The Complete Gabriel method. I originally dled it, but am ordering a CD from the site instead of downloading it because I truly beleive in the value he is giving, and it has literally changed my life. Its a completely different approach then I have ever seen, and I say that in the best way possible. It is not just about fat loss, its about living the best life you can live.
I feel like I should end with a "God Bless You" due to my zealousness; I sound like a religious fanatic. But its just so beneficial in all areas of life that I wanted to share it, with hopes that even a few others, like myself, the people on the fence, who still have the occasional staredown with a slice of pepperoni pizza despite their fitness progress, will change their lives.
