HOW OVERCOMING RESISTANCE HOLDS
THE KEY TO WEIGHTLOSS

I had a great conversation last night with Jon Gabriel. He was my guest on my BlogTalkRadio show. Jon is the author of a new book called The Gabriel Method. It’s about a “non- diet”, diet program. Jon once weighed over 400 lbs (181 kgs). He is 6’2” (1.9 m) and now weighs 185 lbs (84 kgs). Many people emailed me wanting to know how he lost over 200 lbs (91 kgs)—all without dieting. And Jon is more than willing to talk about it.

He’d been working on Wall Street in New York City and was under a tremendous amount of stress. He was supposed to travel on September 11 on Flight 93, which was the plane that crashed into the field in Pennsylvania. This near fatal experience had a profound effect on his life and he credits it with the epiphany he had about his weight.

Suddenly, Jon had the realization that he wasn’t a “fat person” and recognized that was a thin person in a fat body. When he realized this, he knew that he could lose weight without dieting because he had “reset” his belief systems. After his epiphany, everything became a lot easier for him. He knew exactly what was preventing him from losing weight and was totally clear on what he needed to do to get rid of the extra weight. The stronger his beliefs and understanding of his own, personal truth became, the faster the weight came off.

Anyone who struggles with weight loss experiences some form of resistance. The precise form it takes will vary from person to person. The ability to explore and understand one’s source of the resistance is the key to unlocking the door to weight loss. Jon’s book explores this concept in depth as well as its relationship to the power of the mind-body connection.

Maintaining high body fat is a primitive response to stress, which has been programmed in all of us since Paleolithic times, but we live in modern society. Everything we experience on a physical or emotional level will cause our “primitive” bodies to react exactly as they were programmed some 75,000 years ago. So, maintaining high body fat originally evolved as a means of protection against the cold or of some kind of bodily injury. But, this archaic message to our bodies motivates us to store extra calories. It makes perfect sense, therefore, that once the body has the protection signal removed, it will allow weight to be shed. The key here is to discover the “trigger” that informs the pituitary gland in our brain of impending danger.

If we can send the brain such a signal, then it follows that we can also send the brain a message that in order to survive, we need to be slim, fit, and agile. Obviously, this is a very different signal to the brain and one of the best ways to deliver it is by the type of exercise we do. If we are just walking for exercise at a leisurely pace, the body does not receive the reinforcement of a need to be slim and fit. One can be quite obese and be capable of walking.

However, if we do burst training where brief intense periods of high intensity exercise are performed repetitively, the body will get the message that slim and lithe suits us better for survival. This kind of exercise is what our primitive brains might perceive of as the same reflex we once occasionally used to out run a predator. Understanding how our primitive brains and genetic ancestry works is critical for weight loss and optimal health.

The hour interview with Jon flew by in what seemed like just a few minutes. I thoroughly enjoyed talking to him. He is a passionate and engaging man, who has gone far beneath the surface of weight loss resistance to find a truth that we can all share and put to great use!

Naturopath Recommends Gabriel Method

“I have read your book and agree with EVERYTHING you said.

I am a Naturopath ...

... After much research and my own experiences, I have concluded that your method is the only one that I want to recommend on my site.

I spent hours reading and researching different diets and none of them I agreed with or could show long term results because no-one can stick to a drastic diet change.”

Kristin, Naturopath

More praise for The Gabriel Method...

“For years I always thought people were fat or obese because they eat too much or in some instances eat very little, either way eating the wrong things.

I have now discovered (thanks to this book) why most people don't lose weight no matter what diet or exercise program they follow.

Most people will never lose weight UNTIL you address the underlying cause of your hidden "mental and emotional stresses"... and if you were born in the last 100 years you've got em...

GET THIS BOOK, it's for real, it's brilliant and yet so simple and sensible to follow...

It's all good - and good gets even better!”

Grant See

Your book gives what my work is, HOPE !

“I actually have not been on diets for many years. Ironically, my son Gabriel, the certified nutritionists, tells me I don't eat enough volume of salads, veggies nor do I eat proteins at every eating. Being solo for so long, I just don't prepare that much food anymore.  The biggest challenge for me is actually eating! 

Exercise used to be more a part of my life.  Since my accident in 05, it's been up and down due to movement issues.  I suspect my body is truly off in terms of enough volume of high fiber or right proteins. 

For three months I walked 5 miles faithfully 6 days a week.  Felt greatly energetic, but lost little weight at all. Truthfully, eating more bulky veggies and a variety takes more practice with me since I now cook only for me.

I shall keep using your book and method, slowly but surely over time.  You proved everything I've ever thought about my weight and body. Thank you so much.  And being "thin" doesn't make any of us more great or loved if we already love ourselves well, but it can help with right living for health and well being.

I am telling everyone about your book because in my work I see so many women hating their bodies for many reasons, which goes back to hating self or shame.  Your book gives what my work is HOPE. Many of my clients who have weight as a "cover up" issue are using your book, feeling finally more free of guilt and self hate AND they are dropping lbs without so much diet panic!  Your whole mind body/spirituality connections are great. THANKS

My son Gabriel laughs every time I say Gabriel Method.

People thought it was his!”

“I read your book in May 2009, did the daily audio for 30 days.

As of today, September 29th, I have dropped 49 lbs (22 kgs), lost over 40 inches (101 cm) and I am virtually pain free from fibromyalgia pain I had experienced for 10 years in my muscles.  

I am 59 yrs old and have struggled with weight since the death of my husband 12 years ago.

I am so ecstatic I cannot tell you. I saw my family doctor a month ago and her jaw dropped.

My cholesterol was not high but now it is amazing with my total triglycerides dropping from 150 to 66, (Canadian values).

I continue to succeed thanks to the Gabriel Method.

This method has revolutionized every part of my life.  I am no longer anxious to get on an airplane; I am more confident and cheerful than I have been in years.

Many thanks and gratitude.”

Gabriel Method address Real Crux ...

“First of all, let me congratulate you on your method.

From what I have learned about it so far, your approach seems to have a real potential to actually help a lot of people with their "food problems", including not dealing with extra pounds, but also normalizing our perpetual anxiety about eating in general.

As a scientist, albeit not a nutritionist (I am a theoretical nuclear physicist), I am particularly interested in the scientific underpinnings of your approach.

One of the great (and, as far as I know, unique) features of your method is that you explicitly address what I see as the real crux of the fat loss problem: the psychological aspect. Thank you. Sincerely,”

Serge

“I loved your book and your story.

I have been immersed in the field of Natural Health now for over 10 years and I have understood and experienced weight loss as a natural good consequence of balancing my own biochemistry!

I want to thank you for getting this info down on paper and backing it up with science....what an incredible thing you have done!!!

THANK YOU! THANK YOU!!!

I have just finished my second holistic nutrition certificate and intend to use your principles with my future clients. Warmly,”

Sherry Dawn Rothwell, RHN, CD

“I am a graduate student in cellular biology studying appetite and obesity. I am with you completely -- the body is fat when it NEEDS to be fat, and the signals from the body to the hypothalamus will make sure you are hungry. Few of my professors and classmates really get this, but I'm hopeful. Thank you for looking at so many pieces of the puzzle and presenting it to a wider audience. Best regards,”

Sonya Trejo

“I recently purchased and read your wonderful book and listened to the CD. You have done something absolutely marvelous for people struggling with their weight problem.

Very early on in the book...you state outright that "emotional issues" MUST be dealt with prior to using the book and it's methods and visualizations for them to work - ABSOLUTELY!

The Mind Body Institute of America was formed to assist people deal with physical and emotional health issues. I am both a practicing hypnotist and also an Advanced Practitioner of EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques).

I'm also a Veteran and member of the Vietnam Veterans of America and am in the process of building a Pilot Program and Center for Vietnam and Iraq/Afghanistan veterans suffering from PTSD.…

Type 2 Diabetic Lost 60 lbs

"I am a Type 2 insulin dependent diabetic.

Last May 2009, I was diagnosed with Insulin Resistance Syndrome and was requiring 500 to 700 units of insulin a day. I was instructed by my doctors to go on an insulin pump.

Last December I read your book in great relief because; finally someone who has actually lost weight through a permanent life style change had written a book on exactly how they accomplished such a monumental task.

Since December 2009 I have lost 60 lbs (27 kgs) and need to lose approximately 60 more.

I am also now only requiring about 30 units of insulin a day. My doctors look at my A1C records and tell me it borders on miraculous, I have you to thank for my life style change.

I now have wheat grass growing in my dining room.”

“… Everything that you state makes perfect since to me …

I already feel a difference in my body in just a week! 

It's awesome. 

I am not severely over weight but I have been battling my weight for years. I am letting go of all the negative thoughts and feelings and I am so much happier.

But more than that you have opened my eyes to the real reason people are over weight.  I am a Sonographer (ultrasound tech.) and when a really large person would come in for an exam I would think, "Oh, great this is going to be awful, why can't they just lose weight" along with some other very negative thoughts. 

But now after reading your book I look at my overweight pt differently.

I am not bitter toward them.  I can respect them much more as a human being and I refuse to give them ‘the LOOK’ when they come into my exam room.

Thank you for opening my eyes!!”

IN A WORD, REVOLUTIONARY

“I just finished reading your book and have listened to your CD for the last three nights.

To summarize it in one word, it is REVOLUTIONARY.

As a health care provider who has read extensively both lay and scientific publications on weight loss.... our book resonated very deeply with me.
It completely shatters all the conventional medical protocols on weight loss, and inspires a fresh and natural approach for long term sustainable weight loss and overall good health....

Your knowledge of biochemistry is so profound, and you explained it in such a simple way, that it all makes so much sense. I can feel that your life purpose is to share your astounding discovery with the world. It's like you following your heart to change the world.

By allowing your light to shine brightly, you help many others.”

Doctors Gave me 3 months to Live,

But Now ... a Normal Life

“Today I celebrate what I consider to be an enormous milestone.

I am allergic to salicylates, have been ever since I was a little kid.

In the last nine years my allergy got sooooo bad that I became allergic to 99% of foods.

7 years ago the doctors gave me 3 months to live.

Then one of the doctors looking after me tried some experimental meds to see if that would help. It did as I am still here today but it has been a rollercoaster of a ride.

In the last nine years I have had 68 anaphylaxis (same reaction to what some people have to peanuts and beestings) the only trouble was they could resolve them with a epipen that administers .3ml of adrenaline. When I have an attack, usually 3 within 6 hours, I require 56 ampoules of adrenaline equaling 150 or so epipens.

Everyday for me was a nightmare, if my levels were low I could manage to eat a small amount of vegs or salad maybe once every two or three weeks. Lived on boiled meat and eggs most of the time but if my levels were high or very high lived on milk 6-8 liters a day and purified water. So you can imagine how my body interpreted that famine all the time.

Living with the knowledge that the mouthful of food you have just put into your mouth may be the mouthful that will kill you was no fun I can tell you.

Friends, family and colleagues kept their distance often saying we would love to have you around for a meal but we are too scared what we give you, will kill you. I would even react to the steam off micro-waved vegies and have a rip roaring attack that would land me in hospital with everyone going flat out to keep me alive.

Consequently I have lived a very solitary existence for the last nine years. I started on GM at the beginning of June this year, my doctors and there are lots of them were all very skeptical and thought I was totally mad to take such a chance but agreed it couldn't be worse than the Life was I was living.

My cause for celebration is that I have not had an anaphylaxis for over 8 months now and that in itself is a record. More importantly I am eating foods that they told I would never be able to tolerate, on a daily basis.

My illness caused me to get type 2 diabetes which until the last few weeks has been totally out of control. I still take diabetic meds but I am now looking forward to getting my diabetes under control and being able to get off all the meds. In combination for my allergy and diabetes I take 46 meds a day, now the omega 3's and probiotics and digestive enzymes.

My doctor said yesterday that he hasn't seen me looking so well in about 12 years and is totally gob smacked with the food I am now able to eat.  I haven't lost any weight but that will come when my body heals itself.

So here is a BIG THANK YOU JON GABRIEL for giving me a chance at a normal life. I have tried all the spectrums of health including naturopaths and the like all to no success.

But GM has done the trick and I am jubilant that I'm getting my life back.”

Thorough Approach to Understanding Cellular Reasons for Obesity

“Thank you so much for your efforts to produce such a well written book- a rigorous and sound approach to understanding the cellular reasons for obesity, which is completely accessible for those without scientific training.

I particularly appreciate this as I trained as an RN so understand the biochem and mind-body strategies you are using but also know from experience that the real challenge is in communicating this effectively to the general population.

Personally, I have benefited from both- although rationally I get the biochemistry and the general psychological approaches you discuss… what makes the difference for me is that you have presented them in a holistic way.  Kind regards,”

“I just want to tell you that I think your Gabriel Method is the best weight loss technique that I have ever seen and now use. 

One thing that has made it easy for me is that my eating habits were already healthy so my diet did not have to change...

I felt better after the very first night of listening to your sleep meditation.  I don't know how much weight I have lost, as I don't weigh myself.  But I do know I am slimming down and in my mind am already at my target size.

I am a massage therapist and see a lot of overweight people complaining of back and joint pain.  They always tell me of the diets they are on or have been on that haven't worked.  Now I am able to give them the name of your book and tell them a brief outline of your method. Thanks Jon. Sincerely,”

My Clothes are Falling Off Me - Lost 50 lbs (23 kgs)

“I began using the GM in mid Sept 2009. I am now 50.7lbs (23 kgs) lighter. Many people have commented that I "look well" or "look relaxed". Only 1 person has commented that I "look like I may have lost a little weight".

My clothes are falling off me and I have had to get rid of quite a lot of things as there was no way I could wear them any longer. I can also fit into tons of things I thought I never would again….

26 March 2010: I am now 59.5lbs (27 kgs) lighter – 8.8lbs (4 kgs) more since I sent you my first success story. Many thanks.”

I Don't Know What To Do With All This Energy !

“I cannot tell you what a pleasure it is to read your book and listen to the Visualisation CD.  I have been struggling with my weight for the past ten years… I could not understand because I don't eat deserts, cakes, chocolate, sweets and cook most of my food.

After reading your book I realized that I was actually nutrient deficient and could not lose weight because my FAT programs was on. I have read up to the chapter on Mental Obesity and I have realized my mistakes.

Since I have been listening to you CD every night, I don't feel hungry at all. I suddenly have this craving for WATER, something that I had to force myself to drink.

I don't know what to do with all this energy. I don't worry about my weight anymore because I feel great within myself and with the result, I can see on my clothes that I have lost some weight but I will not get onto the scale for the next 3 months. I LOVE THIS BOOK. THANK YOU.”

“My husband and I run a complimentary therapies clinic from our home in Lincoln UK.

I am a reflexologist and my husband is a hypnotherapist. We were so excited to read your book as it supports everything we believe in! Just about ALL our therapy (and our own personal development) starts from a point of relaxation and letting go. So to find a book that deals with obesity based on those principles was great!

I am a trained nurse and get so frustrated trying to explain to my clients why they SHOULDN'T diet! I have been telling people for years that dieting makes them fat. I now have your book to back up my view! …

I just wanted to thank you for writing your book - it is a valuable resource for us.  Very best wishes.”

 Lost 5 Inches Off Stomach

"I just started your system roughly 2 months ago.

Thus far I am amazed by my results. I feel better, I look better,  and I am starting to see more and more positives in my everyday life.

Your book is an exceptionally great read. It explains the science of why I am fat, and also helps to understand the scientific processes of losing weight. I have failed with every diet I have tried.

However after 2 months of using your method, I am still going strong. I have found several of your nutritional suggestions to be both reasonable and delicious.

I have lost roughly 5 inches off my stomach, and inches other places as well. I love seeing people that I haven't seen in a while, and they all tell me how great I look, and ask me what my secret is. When I tell them that, I am not dieting, but rather adapting to your system, they always ask me more about it.

I just wanted to say thank you for changing my life.  I am very thankful that I found the Gabriel Method.”

Major Breakthrough Knowing It Is OK To Be Thin

"Since embarking on the Gabriel Method in May 20008 I have lost 37.5 lbs (17 kgs). My fitness has improved 150% ...

The key for me was the CD + visualization techniques, I totally believe that I have trained my belief system to be thin.

Knowing that it is OK to be thin has been a major breakthrough.

Training is easy now - no mental blocks get in my way because I am not fighting an internal war with myself …

I am sure you hear a lot of these success stories, but I thought you might be keen to hear from a long term Gabrieler.

I wasn't keen to give feedback earlier as I wanted to see the longevity of the process - and hey I am still here!!”

Melted Off 22 lbs (10 kgs) and Sleeps Like A Baby       

“At Christmas I was over 268 lbs (112 kgs), and was having a terrible time with my hip, knees and lower back was very painful too.

However since starting at the gym and now using your method, I am pain free and stronger than ever.

I have melted off over 22 lbs (10 kgs) easily since Feb, (the first few months hardly any weight shifted, but until I'd read your views on emotional obesity and made some profound connections between having' the weight of the world' on my shoulders, 'weight of sorrow' etc....

Once I started to change the 'fat programs' that felt very unsafe in the world I am steadily melting the weight between 2 – 4 lbs (1 – 2 kgs) a week since I received your book.

I am now feeling outrageously healthy, strong as an ox, pain free practically, developing great endurance, sleeping like a baby after years of poor sleeping…

I contribute a large part of my new found vitality to your brilliance! I love doing the visualizations evening and morning (and a dozen times during the day....”

I am loving the process and have got a lot of my friends to buy your book. I have also sent a letter to Oprah – see below.

I was a skinny kid and had a blessed childhood.  I had an unpleasant sexual experience when I was 11 and from that point on weight piled on and I had very high blood pressure.  I am now 48 years of age and can honestly say for the first time that I am on top of the weight and understand how that happened.

Also I used meditation for managing my high blood pressure. Your process fits so well into my life and I love the great way I feel when I use your mediation. It’s not just about loosing the weight – it’s great for other aspects of my life.

Thank you for taking the time to share your results. It was a huge step for me to reduce my daily walk from 8 to 4kms and the weight still came off.

Life is good being thin!

This is a copy of the email I sent to the Oprah show:

I have struggled many years with my weight for many years.  I probably eat less than the average person, don’t eat sweets and exercised 5 times a week (walked 8 k’s a day).  While I didn’t change my eating or exercise patterns, I did put on weight.

In Christmas 1996 I left the corporate world & went on a 3 month break.  I didn’t exercise, had lots of parties, ate pasta and loads of it (something I never eat now).  5 months later I went to put on my winter trousers I almost fell over as they were 3 sizes too big.  I had lost a considerable amount of weight and for the life of me didn’t have any clue on how I did it.

I stopped smoking & it was only then that I put the weight back on & never got into the clothes I used to wear unit now.

My doctor, life coach and nutritionist have all looked at me with doubt on their faces asking me if I was telling the truth about my eating habits or my exercise routine. I wanted to scream!

The Gabriel Method is the most amazing process and more importantly Jon explains why our bodies work the way they work gabrielmethod.com.au. He has put the science behind it. I have been using this method for a month, cut back my walking in half &  people are asking me what diet I am on.  I have complete pleasure in telling them I am on no diet and letting my body get me to where I need to be.

I can say with confidence that my weight will continue to fall off me if I stick to the methods that Jon has introduced me to.  I knew there was a key outside just the food and exercise.

I have sent this to you as I believe there are many people in the world like me and it has made such a difference in my life.  This is not just about loosing the weight – it’s a life plan.  The tools also assist you in other parts of your life.  It’s a bit like Robin Sharma, Randy Pausch, Wayne Dyer, Deepak Chopra, Jack Canfield tools all mixed into one.

Thin is safe!  I love my body and my life. AND THIS IS EASY!

"I ordered the book back at the end of December and downloaded the audio. I listen to the meditation every night and have had great success, losing 56 pounds (25 kgs).

Many thanks, Richard, a very happy British customer."

“I have been following your program for several months and have lost 25 lbs (11 kgs) ...

I have followed all the recordings that you have done on blog talk radio and enjoyed and benefited from them all.”

Anne Pettersen

California, USA

“I just wanted to say how amazing and true your discovery is. I am only a young 19 year old but I have had many weight struggles, as the pressure to look good starts younger and younger.

I have tried so many things including trying not to eat or forcing myself to eat foods I didn’t like and exercise that felt like it was gonna kill me but this method makes 100% sense.

If every person was given this book no one would be obese it would be an epidemic of the past it almost seems sad people are dying because of obesity when its so simple to be thin.

... I feel blessed to have found this site and have read this book. Thank you so much for saving endless efforts and my life. You were touched by an angel on 9/11 and now you have become that angel to many, God Bless.”

Physically Challenged lost 22 lbs (10 kgs)

“I have read your book and I’m disabled, over weight and on a lot of medications, with multiple illnesses.

However just with my own positive thinking and with what I have read, I have already lost 22 lbs (10 kgs), and as I’ve just had spinal surgery this is a miracle, as it literally has just melted away.”

Gabriel Method Has it Right in Relation to Weight Loss

“Since following the method for one month my husband & I have lost 22 lbs (10 kgs) each.

We can't thank Jon enough.  Before the method I had lost hope.

Thank goodness someone got it right in relation to weight loss.”

Eileen & Keith Humphry

Australia.

“… having read the book and enjoyed my first lunch I have to say I am a complete convert.

The book makes so much sense to me in so many ways. Having a scientific background it really wanted to hold onto the energy in + energy out theory and when what you said was first explained to me, I thought you were contradicting this - clearly nothing could be further from the truth.

I love food - good and bad at times - so I often feel that this is a futile pursuit. But after that delicious lunch, omelet with a little salmon and a salad picked from the garden, I am thinking this is so much better than the easy junk options.

Also the amount of water I have been drinking has helped.”

John Cruse

I was about to take the diabetes tablets and said to doctor wait

6 months and now I no longer need to take them.”

Beryl Murphy

“I have been reading your book and using the CD nightly - and I thank you for putting weight loss into perspective. I have been the same weight for the past 14 years not able to gain or lose a single pound and since receiving your book I have lost an amazing 15 lbs (7 kgs) and 2 sizes smaller. I cannot tell you how excited I am to finish your book and implement the entire process.”

Ivadeen, Canada

60 yr old Now Looks 32 !

“I have read and re-read your book and listened to your CD each night in bed.

This has been very successful and I have lost about 13 lbs (6 kgs) in 4 weeks, I sleep like a baby and have a very positive attitude towards food and life in general.

My relationship with food has relaxed (for want of a better term) and I no longer have any desire to eat chocolate (amazing!).

I no longer eat quickly, nor do I feel the need to finish everything on my plate.  All these desires have diminished and I feel free for the first time in many years.

I cannot describe what this means to me; my relationship with food has changed so much, it is exquisite freedom from the monster addiction that had dominated my life for so long.  I am 60 and a friend last night (not knowing what I have been doing) said I looked about 32!

The odd thing is that my husband is also losing weight and shares some of my ‘symptoms’. I can only surmise that your voice somehow reaches his ears despite the headphones!  It is really funny! My heartfelt thanks Jon.”

Linda Hong

NSW, Australia

It's fat Jackie....no more!

Last year 216 lbs (98 kgs)... yesterday 171 lbs (77.8 kgs). 

Slow I know but pretty steady and I did not have to diet... 
 
Thanks for the inspiration.  Your book is highlighted, underlined, tagged and quite scruffy.  I've read it many times. 

My sister bought herself a copy (she is a neato) and several nurses at work bought theirs after seeing my uniform sizes decreased a bit. I'm telling everyone about it.  Good job Jon!

Jacqueline Brown

“I am so happy to be using the Gabriel Method. This is my second day and believe it or not, it has already made a noticeable difference, maybe not in inches, but in joy, peace, and calm.

My husband asked me this morning why I was so happy. He said I never seem happy in the morning. I woke up rested, excited to face the day, and not completely crumbling with fear and anxiety! Jon, thank you for your courage to share your story and journey!”

Heather Schulze

Georgia, USA (April 13th, 2010)

“... I have dropped 13 lbs (6 kgs).

It might not sound much to a lot of people, but to me it is close to miraculous.  I have not done any of the awful things I used to have to do to drop any weight at all, & I know that it is all wonderful from here. Yours with love & appreciation.”

Jan McFarlane

“… since you came on the A Current Affair program in Australia, I began reading your book and must say firstly it is a brilliant book which makes more sense then any dieting crap ever has... At least you backup what you say with logic and common sense.”

On Insulin But Still Lost 11 lbs (5 kgs)

“I am on peritoneal dialysis, and on insulin, so weight loss is not easy, but since using your method I have gradually lost 11 lbs

(5 kgs).

Thank you - as I needed to lose this weight to get on the kidney transplant list. Cheers.”

Graham Jones

“I bought the book and have been listening to the tapes for about 8 weeks.

I had a problem sleeping and had been diagnosed with Hashimotos Hypothyroidism which had caused me to gain 33 lbs (15 kgs) over 18 months and I was exhausted all the time, yet I could not sleep.

I went to an endocrinologist who could not get my
weight off.

Since listening to the audio, my sleeping has improved and I have lost 11 lbs (5 kgs). Many thanks.”

Debbie Whiting

People Don't Recognise Me Anymore After Losing Weight

“I walk home from work each night and over the past month I continually have people being blown away with my appearance. 

One lady in a clothing shop stopped me and said that I would now be able to fit her European trousers and I look amazing. 

I was at a 52nd birthday party and a friend that I had not seen for 2 years walked right past me, I yelled out and he blankly looked at me and said can he help me, then the penny dropped and he recognized me. He said he didn’t recognize me, I look absolutely fantastic and kept coming back asking what changed me.
You did!

I have people blown away with how well I look regardless of the weight that I have lost as that is quite slow – but it works! 

My size 10 lovely work colleague has bought the book not because she wants to lose weight but wants access to the glow that radiates from me every day.

I walked past a friend yesterday and she said hi then took a double take and screamed out you have lost so much weight and you look fantastic. 

Thank you, thank you, thank you. 

What an amazing journey I am on and it is so great to see other people seeing there is hope for those of us that park weight. 

I only wish that your message could get out there to more people.”

Karen McRae

NZ

“I just wanted to add my thanks to Jon for opening up a pathway to a better life for me.

The book has helped to transform my thinking about weight.

I have been doing GM for 4 weeks and have lost 10.5 lbs (4.8 kgs) without missing a beat.

The CD is the best thing ever, as I now sleep right through the night, which I haven’t done for at least 5 years. I have energy and vitality and am not craving anywhere near as much. I stopped eating modern bread, and cut out sugar, and feel so much better for it.

But what I love the most is having my family ask "how many dinosaurs did you run away from today" I love it, because It just makes me so much more determined, and I know in 6 months time they will see my new transformed body and be oh so proud.

Thank you Jon for the work you have done, to help change lives for the better. It is the very best.”

Jan Mc.

Australia (April 6th, 2010)

“I have lost 11 lbs (5 kgs) in a week. I have such faith in my plans for further weight loss.

I was 251 lbs (114 kgs) and I plan to get down to 187 lbs (85 kg).

This seems such a sensible and sustainable approach to weight loss.”

Robert Charlton

Australia (16 Jun 2009)

“... I have been dieting all my life and have ended up with such a restrictive diet and yet still wasn't been able to shift any weight.

My ideal weight is 134 lbs (61 kgs). I’d given up dairy, meat, all bread or wheat products, eat mostly raw food, run, do pilates

4 hours per week and have daily saunas. I've stayed at 180 lbs (82 kgs) no matter what I did.

I felt different the first day after listening to the nighttime CD.

I just knew something was different.

I weighed myself this morning 8 days after staring and I weighed 171.5 lbs (77.8 kgs). That’s a loss of 9.5 lbs (4.2 kgs).

I'm happy beyond words. Not so much that 4.2 kg of fat has melted off my body but more that I feel my life of struggle is over.

Jon I can't thank you enough. In immense appreciation and gratitude.”

Heather

(March 30th, 2010)

“Just started reading your book and I am thrilled!

I have learned many methods of complementary healing, traditional medicine (nursing), and whole food nutrition.

You have developed a common-sense approach utilizing only the most important aspects of those teachings that resonate completely with my experiences and belief systems!

So glad to have found you and read your book!”

Patricia Pacheco Schryver

From ‘Facebook’ (August1st, 2010)

“I feel different since reading your book.

It is amazing that I am naturally craving live foods.

I know that I was weighing more than 150 lbs (68 kgs).

I also know that I've lost at least 10 lbs (4.5kgs) so far just from the way my clothes are feeling...”

“I purchased your book and CD about 6 weeks ago and have lost 18.7lbs (8.5 kgs) since following your method.”

Graham Allen

“Thank you for inspiring and assisting me to lose weight.

I lost 6.6 lbs (3 kgs) and I haven't even finished the book yet, and I've been eating whatever I want…. it was your book that has set me up for lasting and phenomenal success.”

Louise Glover

Australia (March 29th, 2010)

“I started reading your book when I weighed 314 lbs (142 kgs).

After reading and re-reading, visualizing, and listening to the CD, and consistently keeping my mind in the “safety” zone, I woke up 294 lbs (133 kgs) this morning.

It’s not so much but I haven’t changed my eating habits because I have been clearing the emotional baggage and deactivating the fat programs has made me much more aware and has influenced my food decisions. I am very clear about what I want for me, emotionally, as well as food… 

I will be documenting my result with people who are interested in the Gabriel Method and assist in confirming it is a worthwhile endeavor.

All my very best and thank you for such a wonderful gift …

You made me believe again … in myself and the world around me.”

Max (Macklin Crux)

“I have lost 6.6lbs (3kg) in 9 days … think the method has been a ‘eureka’ moment for me after 30 yrs of trying to lose weight (rapidly accumulated after getting epilepsy).”

Trevor

Australia

“A huge thank you. I admit I started because I wanted to lose

30 lbs (13.6 kgs). However I soon discovered that this was really not about weight loss but life gain.

Thank you so much for showing me the path towards reclaiming my life.…

In a nut shell the 30 pounds is no longer an issue.

If it goes, and it is according to my friends, all well and good the main thing is the almost miraculous discoveries I am making about me, my life and my future.

I will be 70 on my next birthday so it proves that it is never too late to wake up and start living. Thank you so much Jon.”

Jon Richmond

Canada

“I'm so enjoying my new life. 3 weeks now, can't say how much I've lost cause I was too afraid to weigh myself.

I was a yo-yo dieter for years lost thousands of pounds and then I would find them again. Then I ran across Jon's website and within minutes I ordered his book/CD, I've always been into yoga and meditation so what he said made such sense to me.

Now both my husband and I listen every night and feel absolutely fabulous.

I would guess that I have about 80lbs (36 kgs) to go, and my husband about 60lbs (27 kgs) to go but this time we are really enjoying getting there, I've gone from size 5X down to 2X. I'll step on the scales in 6 months or so.

Thank you so much Jon for being such an inspiration.”

From ‘The hairy potter’ at The Gabriel Method Forum

(April 25th, 2010)

“Your book is fantastic. It has completely changed my outlook.

My situation was very similar to yours and I am six weeks into it and people are telling me how good I look with the weight loss. I am on my way to losing 180 lbs (81.6 kgs) which is my visualization goal.”

Lost 14 lbs (6 kgs) Without Even Trying

“THANK YOU !!!!! Someone has figured out how to help me with the yo-yo diet life that I have been living with for 30 yrs.

As soon as I read the first few pages I was hooked, (mesmerized), I could not put the book down, I even cried. I felt as though you were talking about me in your book, I've read the book 3 times already and still enjoy reading it.…

Without even trying to lose weight, after reading the book and setting my mind in that mindset, I've lost 14lbs (6 kgs) in 7 days !!

Thank you so much Jon, and I plan to keep you updated with my success. God Bless.”

Rico Garcia

“Just wanted to say things started happening.

I have the most energy I have ever had in my life. I'm on the go all the time. I told my husband it is as if I'm on ‘happy pills’!

I am positive and in good spirits 24/7.

I have lost cm around the waist - my clothes are letting me know.

I'm almost afraid it’s too good to be true. However I have had various people telling me I look as if I've lost weight.

Thanks so much for being there and answering my emails and putting my fears to rest. I appreciate this very much.”

Meliza Romano

Sinnamon Park, QLD, Australia

“After 20 years of yoyo dieting…, I decided to try something entirely different: your book plus hypnosis.

I've lost 19 pounds (8.6 kgs) so far (about 1 to 2 lbs/week) and feel FANTASTIC! I still can't believe this is really working because it's so effortless.

From the bottom of my heart, thank you. I have hope for the future.”

Karen K

I am so pleased and I feel so very different. I am sleeping so much better and my knee injury is not waking me up anymore."

Kerry Sawyer

Brisbane, Australia (July 25th, 2010)

“Thank you so much for your book and your caring, humble and dedicated approach to helping millions of us turn off the fat switch.

I am 43, and was formally a chronic dieter. I have been overweight pretty well my entire life… I've just completed my first month on the GM, and am happy to say goodbye to approx 6 lbs (2.7 kgs).

However, what I'm most thrilled about right now are the other incredible mental and physical changes I've experienced.

The amazing thing is not that I was able to resist desserts. I did not have to resist. I couldn’t have cared less. This is a huge break thru for me!

My desire to exercise has increased.

Your program has given me a lot more insight to how my body works and the damage I have done to it along the way.

I now have a genuine desire to treat my body better, and to understand foods and how processed foods have caused unhealthy addictions and reactions causing all sorts of trouble.

My husband has seen my success and is starting the program as well.

Thank you again Jon, and I really hope you are able to find balance in your life as your book continues to take off, and the demands for your time get greater and greater.”

Connie Kamenz

Minnesota, USA

“… I had been suffering from quite painful arthritis in the ring finger of my right hand. The pain would wake me up in the night and it was also very stiff and swollen. On the second night whilst listening to your CD I had decided beforehand to include a visualization of my own where I saw my fingers being strong fit and healthy, as they used to be in my '20's. That night I slept soundly as I didn't experience any pain, and woke up the next morning with a 90% improvement in my finger's mobility, and without any of the usual pain whatsoever. Over the last 2 weeks the finger has returned to 100% health…

My energy levels and stamina have increased exponentially… After following your method I can now get back into some of my old "skinny" clothes, which is fabulous! PLUS I am eating a lot more and exercising less!

So, Jon...a big THANK YOU. How wonderful for you to be able to help people in this way!”

Janet Mitchell

You can imagine how ecstatic I am, as, like many, I tried every diet and weight loss product, health retreats and getting nowhere. I know your theory will and forever.”

Lila Chapman

Australia

“I'm 22, I bought your book in September 2008, I have followed your program on and off for the last 15 months.

I have lost 81.5lbs (37 kgs) now; I am currently 183lbs (83 kgs) now and feel so alive and full of energy …. my life has changed, I'm happy, outgoing, love socializing, I'm making lots of new friends, I eat healthy foods, (I only crave healthy foods), I love exercising now, I'm active, I have got lots of confidence and I love my life now, all thanks to you.

I started getting back into listening to your CD every night and visualizing exactly how I would like to look and feel, and I've noticed and everyone around me, a huge transformation, not just how healthy and slim I'm looking but how positive, friendly and confident I am.

Jon, you are an amazing person, you've changed my life and so many others, if it weren't for you I would not be where I am today.

So from the bottom of my heart thank you so much for what you have done for me.”

(5 May 2010)

“I just started your system roughly 2 months ago.

Thus far I am amazed by my results.

I feel better, I look better, and I am starting to see more and more positives in my everyday life.

Your book is an exceptionally great read. It explains the science of why I am fat, and also helps to understand the scientific processes of losing weight. I have failed with every diet I have tried.

However after 2 months of using your method, I am still going strong. I have found several of your nutritional suggestions to be both reasonable and delicious.

I have lost roughly 5 inches off my stomach, and inches other places as well. I love seeing people that I haven't seen in a while, and they all tell me how great I look, and ask me what my secret is. When I tell them that, I am not dieting, but rather adapting to your system, they always ask me more about it.

I just wanted to say thank you for changing my life.  

I am very thankful that I found the Gabriel Method.”

Jay

USA

“I am Portuguese and I am 23 years old.

I was travelling around the world, when in Australia I found your book and curious I decided to buy it.

I weighed 183 lbs (83 kgs) when I left home. I was always overweight as I used to crave food all the time.

I read your book within a month and soon understood why I had the desire of eating all the time. Then I started eating healthier and putting in practice all you said in your book.

Now, back in the UK I weight 165 lbs (75 kgs) …

Now I go to the kitchen and I don’t have the need any more to eat everything that it is on the shelves.

Thank you so much for your support and for understanding how hard is to get on diets.

I don’t do diets anymore. I just follow your method. Thank you so much again!”

Drika Lucas

Portugal

“I am 20 years old, I bought your book in 2008 when I was 18.

I was 90 kg and I started reading your book what an amazing book.

I went on for 8 months doing what you told me, in the 8 months I lost 30 lbs (14 kgs). I became 76 kg. I started play soccer faster, I love how I run now more powerfully.

I work in security and I think I need to share this book with many of my security friends who are overweight.

I am 76 kgs, that is less than when I was 15 years old.

This book is a gift from God.”

Robert Ishak

“I would like to thank you very much. I got your book about

7 months ago.

I was 365 lb (166 kgs). I have four herniated discs in my back.

I started gaining weight from eating the wrong foods. High blood pressure, type 2 diabetes. I was killing myself.

Since I have got your book the doctors cannot believe the weight is falling off of me. I am losing about 18 to 20 lb (8 to 9) every three months. I am feeling great.

Thanks Jon you’re a life-saver. Thanks so much.”

Ray Headley

“Your book is my bible. I carry it every day at work and keep reading it over and over.

I have followed the principles of this book for 3 weeks now and have lost 4 lbs (2 kg) and I have never felt so good.

I am never really hungry at night. And I eat so much less and there is not really any big effort.  I am not really a fat person, but I was struggling with my last 11 lbs (5 kg).

Even by going to the gym everyday and I have a personal trainer, it was so hard to even cut down more of my eating. I was struggling. Now it is so easy.

You have given hope to so many people and save many lives. The world needs you.

Keep up the great work and save this obese nation. Cheers.”

I have lost 11 lbs (5 kgs) so far and still have a long way to go but I wanted to keep you updated so you know that the Gabriel method HAS changed my life.

The program is amazing and I cannot speak too highly of it.”

Gaynor Kemmett

“My goodness, I have already noticed a difference in my own well-being since I started to read your book and that was only 10 days ago.

My weight has dropped ... and just my general outlook on life is more confident and even starting to be more productive.

I started with my own business 2 years ago and found it to be only a struggle until I started to read your book and listen to your CD.

Thank you Jon for your ongoing support and consideration.”

Sue Quantrel

“The combination of the CD plus enzymes/probiotics and migrating towards whole foods, plus not having to deprive myself all the time may turn out to be the most powerful approach ever to eating well and having a healthy body...

My pants are a little looser, I've stopped having heartburn, and I like what I'm eating...” 

Connie Howard

San Jose, CA, USA

“I’m especially excited by your method because it appears to dovetail with what my psychologist has been working with me on, which is emotional release psychology & I have lost 13 lbs (6 kgs) in last 10 weeks without weight even being a goal.” 

Phil Clear

“December 2009 was 262 lbs (119.3 kgs) and plateau out about 251-253 lbs (114-115 kg).

Well the good news! Last 2 weeks I have been doing the daily fresh ground linseed for my Omega-3 enrichment and make my own yoghurt, and also noticed my thin Mum eats tons of lettuce, so I’m doing that too!

I know you say throw the scales away, but I could feel something definitely happening, so jumped on, and WOW, now 246 lbs (112.3kg), so looks like nutrition is getting to the cellular level.... So I’m motoring along nicely.”

Mark Conway

Western Australia, (April 1st, 2010)

“The CDs arrived Monday and I listened right away. I have had an amazing breakthrough as a result! I am WANTING to eat and am eating healthy food in the first time in forever.

I have energy. I feel great! I feel myself already losing weight and it has only been a couple of days. My prayers have been answered.

Thank you to Jon for his kind and generous heart, talking to people and getting up so terribly early on Monday mornings for the radio show. Sending love and light your way.”

Lost 44 lbs (20 kgs) and is Now Off Medication

I just wanted to say thank you for changing my life forever.

I've lost  44 lbs (20 kgs) in 4 months and can't believe how good I feel. I've been quite sick for a few years and have always blamed my weight on illness.

Since following your methods I have dropped a bulk of weight and I am off a lot of poisonous medication. I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Kristy Kempton

Mt Barker, Western Australia, (June 21st, 2010)

“I have been following "The Gabriel Method" for about a month, and I am astounded at the changes that I have made in my life. I cannot remember the last time I felt so alive, fulfilled, and actually happy.

When I read your book it was as if you knew me better than I knew myself. It is amazing that more be people have not made the connection that a healthy lifestyle consists of taking care of the mind, body, and soul, instead of just the body...

I know that I am on my way to being as mentally, spiritually, and physically healthy as I can be, and I have no doubt that the weight will go away. I can't thank you enough.”

Kenn Paquette

“My workmates can't believe the weight I've lost! This is from reading the newsletters you've sent me, and the first few chapters of your book. I've done nothing else.

My God. I'm now onto it and am seriously paying attention!”

“On to the second six months! I have lost about 25 lbs (11 kgs) in the past year- some before I started GM- but the inches came off after I started GM.

I am getting back into clothes that I haven't been able to wear for a while at all and some clothes that I could get into, but not comfortably, are now fitting the way they are supposed to.

I am looking forward to the next six months! It would be wonderful if the pace of my weight loss would pick up BUT I am perfectly okay if it doesn't.

I feel so much better.
Maybe I am really learning to ‘Relax. Let go, and let it happen.’ ”

Robin, Australia.

“I feel my body has changed after listening to the CD for 1 night.

The cravings were gone, I craved water, I didn't feel ravenously hungry and over the first week it all happen like you said it would. During this 1st week I lost 6 lbs (3 Kg).”

“The Gabriel Method concept is brilliant... I think that this concept that the body or its behaviour is only following underlying instructions- programming that can be superseded by our intention- is groundbreaking and self-empowering. This concept will no doubt impact on many other 'health 'challenges.

You have brought together a multitude of aspects and created a truly holistic 'treatment' that is more a new lifestyle and at a time of raised awareness where it all makes such intuitive and rational sense. How elegant is that!

Congratulations and thanks for bringing my awareness into focus personally.”

Lost 44 lbs (20 kgs) and Feels Than Ever

Thank you for your excellent book, I've already lost 44 pounds

(20 kgs) this year, and feeling better than I have in many years. I'm eating healthier, exercising regularly (and enjoying it, for the first time in my life)…

I've recommended your book to many friends, both here in the US and back at home in Australia. Thanks!

"I am so happy I have discovered your book. I have read it over the last 2 weeks & started applying it into my life.

I am so very pleased how you have put my overweight problem into a jar of how to deal with it. I am looking so forward to my journey ahead with following your way of life to address this
problem.

... I have mostly forgotten that I have a thyroid problem as I am now so much more focused on your method & my mind set has changed so much.

Jon, I would like to thank you for all your effort & passion you have put into your book. I feel so much brighter as a person.

Thank you Jon, you are a shining star to me."

 “I have lost one kilo in the last four days and am aiming at loosing an additional 4 lbs (2 kgs) this week.

By the time I celebrate my 75th birthday in June I will be my proper size of 12.”

Catharina

“First of all thank you so much - reading your book was like coming home.

After struggling with weight all my life (I'm 42) I recently got to the heart of why I wanted to be fat. 

I've been wandering around telling my family that something had changed irrevocably but that it would take some time for my outside to match my inside.  Then my husband discovered your book - it was just a delight to read you had the same sort of epiphany too.

I am finding the tips in your method incredibly helpful (especially the water at night).” 

Fiona Yule

Since starting the book, I feel hopeful and, well, lighter.

I don't know if I've lost any weight yet, but I'm craving healthier food (and less of it), and have FINALLY let myself say out loud what my dream is: to continue to teach Pilates, but also yoga and be a massage therapist …

I want to help heal, and to help people stay healthy.

It has been a dream of mine for almost 20 years, but I was too busy with other things to allow myself to think about it much. Then I read what you wrote about stifling our passions and how it affects us. For as long as I can remember, I have felt restless, like there was something missing. Now I feel like I am finding it, and it is within me.

THANK YOU!!!!!!!! I bought the book hoping to lose weight, but it has helped me FIND something even more valuable!”

Alyssa Zulueta

“I have started the Gabriel Method, and I have lost 13 lbs (6 kgs).
I am thrilled every cell of me is excited and turned to 'on'....

Your book brought it all together and tied up anything I was missing. Your CD is powerful and perfect, I go deep and that’s essential for me. Your voice is so beautifully sincere and gracious and it translates right into me.

THANKS AGAIN for sharing your journey…I am grateful.”

Patrice Noone

PA, USA

“I spent about an hour with Jon and he spoke with me about my weight, where it was coming from energetically and how it was affecting me in my life.

My time with Jon was extraordinary as he supported me to become aware of the truth about my weight rather than the typical stuff I’ve heard time and time again that doesn’t work nor is it true.

Jon enabled me to look deeper within myself and more importantly to love me, as I am. I walked away from our session taking on board all of Jon’s words and committed myself to being more aware and also to loving myself.

In 3 weeks I lost 22 lbs (10 kgs), and am continuing to lose more weight as time goes by. As soon as I began to love myself the weight started to pour off.

Jon made it so simple and all this time from the many trainers I have had it wasn’t about loving myself it was about more exercise, and it never really did anything. Just 1 hour with Jon and I realize now as I continue on my journey, it’s not magic, it’s just LOVE.

Thank you so much Jon for your wisdom, love and uniqueness and for having the courage to share YOU with the world.”

Gaze Lowe

“I just want to congratulate you on your success with the book and say it is helping me to make very positive changes in a lot of aspects of my life, not only with losing excess weight which I’ve been carrying following the birth of my son last year, but also with reducing stress levels in my life which of course turn on that fat switch! I am feeling so much more energetic already as I gradually introduce more live foods and nutrients into my body.

Thank you Jon for your dedication and study to make this book a reality. Your desire to share your wealth of knowledge and amazing success with weight loss is what is so inspiring to me and I'm sure will be to millions of others around the world.”

“I'm down 8 lbs (4 kgs) and 8 inches now...yippee...love your method...but I feel so different inside and about food....love it.”

Maddy, The Gabriel Method SparkTeam

“… I would like to thank you for your wonderful book.

Up to my early 30's I was very active… After my music career starting taking off, I had less time for activities and naturally I started to gain weight. Part of the reason of course, was my diet.

I had a check up when I hit 40 and everything was great except cholesterol, which was just in the danger area… After being introduced to your book, the solutions and insight you brought to me were long term and sustainable.

My whole target was to lower my cholesterol but your book encouraged me to take care of ALL my body... and just as important, my spirit.

Not only is my cholesterol in normal range but I have dropped weight (though I have NOT weighed myself but I know I am lighter) and my passion for exercise is back.

... It's funny, I never had a desire for a perfect body image but I would hear you say "now imagine your perfect body" on the cd. So I would join in! My 6 pack is coming back!!!

I always had great knowledge of dietary needs and exercise but never compelled to live by it for some reason. Following your method gave me the reason, and for that I will always be grateful..

Not only does it work for people with big weight problems but for everyone. In these days of processed foods and nutritionally challenged lifestyle, it's a wake-up call for for the whole of modern society. Kind regards,"

“I have some friends doing the Gabriel Method and they've lost 15, 22, 30 lbs (7,10,14kg)”

Rebecca Ulman

“I just want to tell you, you are an inspiration to me.

I had never been overweight up until about 2 years ago when it started piling on. I thought that it would go away but it didn't.

My mother who is 49 this year has struggled with obesity all her life. 6 months ago she showed me your book. I was more intrigued then interested at first, but I read it, and from the first chapter I was hooked.

To this date my mother has lost 28 lbs (13 kgs) and I have lost 13 lbs (6 kgs). So thank you for showing us a new lease on life.

Thank you.”

Louise

“First off, IT'S WORKING ohhhhh my god it's working! I’m so happy that I wanted to thank you before you got soooooo popular you’d never find my note to you...

Only 5lbs (2 kgs), but the amazing thing is I’m just not hungry anymore. I eat extremely healthy food and now crave vibrant alive foods.”

Tara

Canada

“390 lbs  (177 kgs) - Yep, I broke 400 (181 kgs)!!!

I did not think I would do that again in this lifetime. But I have bought the book, been listening to your CD and changing ME!

My doctor's office has a really rinky dink digital scale that does not go over 350. So I never had an accurate starting weight but knew it was over 400. I went to the rehab department in our local hospital to get weighed as my clothes are starting to really hang on me.

I just didn't really believe it. I finally talked myself into going and getting weighed. Afterward, I sat in my car and cried.

Day by day things are changing for me and about me.

Watch out World - I am on my way!”

“I just wanted to say thank you thank you very much for putting your book out there.

…it is really great information and very helpful”

de Vie

Arizona, USA (April 19th, 2010)

“At 16 I had been overweight of most of my young life, and found myself in a very dark place, unsupported by family (except my mum) and judged by so many in the public because of my size being so young…

I read Jon's book and cried…

For the next 8 months I went on such a journey- I was finding myself, loving who I was... I'd never known myself, I always tried to be a clone of other people so they wouldn't taunt me (as much).

Once I'd found a happier me emotionally and mentally, I went from 207 lbs (94 kgs) and am now  147 lbs (67 kg) (and just turned 18). I still want to loose another 7-10 kg, and believe I will in a matter of time, but I just really wanted to say thanks.

Jon helped me in so many ways- I've read the testimonials and there are so many similar stories, but really, he helped me so much more than just helping me drop the kilo's, he helped me find my way.”

Chloe Angelo

Australia, (June 17th, 2010)

"I just wanted to share my story with you after the seminar.

I have lost 110 lbs (50 kg) in just over 5mths and I am now like a runaway train with no control to get to my ideal body and weight. I bought your book and CD and from the instant I listened to it, it reduced me to tears with my visualization of where I want my body

to be.

And from that moment it changed me, my life and my family’s life. It bought me out of a bad aggressive unhappy existence to a total changed man.

So thank you. I could go on for several pages and probably not be able to end this letter. So I will leave it at this.

So many thanks again from me and my family. You literally saved a family’s demise. Warmest regards"

Michael (Mick) Turner

QLD, Australia, (June 20th, 2010)

Additional:

"I have a goal to lose another 50kg so it will be a 100kg all up. And the weight is coming of faster now. So I am expecting another 5mths - 6mths and will get back in touch with you guys when I’m there. I was 190 kg when I first weighed myself and I’d already been on the GM for a month. Now 140kg…

I know Jon realises the good work and how the has helped peoples lives. I just had to tell him how his help has saved a family."

“I have just recently discovered the Gabriel Method and can't believe that I have FINALLY found the holistic approach to weight loss that I have been searching for. I have ordered and given so many of your books to friends and family. I am a massage therapist and see so many people who need some sort of life style change in their overall wellbeing and for weight loss. Your method is the first holistic approach that has made sense to me. Thank you so much.”

Kathy Namaste

Kendall, USA

“My weight had hovered around 250lbs (114 kgs) for several years and NOTHING I tried worked. And I tried every diet out there. I was completely exhausted all the time and hated the way I looked.

I found a link to your website on a holistic health site.

What you say on the site made sense so I ordered your materials and began listening to the mp3s that very night.

Now it's three weeks later and the excess fat is FALLING off me!

I have more energy, no craving for junk food and just feel great physically and emotionally.

Thank you!!!!”

Mark

"I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate what I have learned through your book. At this stage I have read it once only but I instinctively feel good about everything you say in the book.

I have begun to think about how I eat and have already lost 11 lbs (5 kgs) over the last few months ... Thank you so much for what I have learned so far. Kindest regards,"

Helen Arnold

“I just wanted to let you know that I lost about 10 lbs (4.5 kgs) since learning about Jon's program about 5 months ago.

I had learned visualization about 5 years ago when dealing with some school issues and I was very happy to hear how Jon's method incorporated visualization since I found it so helpful for me. Thanks,”

“I am 84 years of age.

In January this year my weight was 185 lbs (84 kgs).
Yesterday my weight was 176 lbs (80.2 kgs).

Today my weight is 175 lbs (79.6 kgs).

I am very happy with these figures. Sincerely,”

Michael Harford

“I've just finished reading your book and have been listening to your CD at bedtime every night for the past two weeks.  

I am a former "junk-food-junkie/couch potato".  

My weight problems began during my childbearing years; over the past twenty years, I have "yo-yo" dieted my way to being more than 100 pounds overweight.  My FAT Programs got STUCK in the ON position.  

Since I started following the Gabriel Method - and I know this probably sounds silly to some - I can FEEL my body fat melting (that's what I am visualizing happening in SMART Mode); my clothes are already getting baggy and I feel WONDERFUL!  

I haven't felt this energetic in YEARS!  

My body now WANTS to be thin!  

All I can say is - WOW!  

THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for sharing your message!

You are truly gifted - you are an inspiration to me. I FEEL FREE  (and THIN) !!!"  

Donna Fielder

Mississippi, USA

“Just started reading your book and I am thrilled!

I have learned many methods of complementary healing, traditional medicine (nursing), and whole food nutrition.

You have developed a common-sense approach utilizing only the most important aspects of those teachings that resonate completely with my experiences and belief systems!

So glad to have found you and read your book!”

Patricia Pacheco Schryver

from ‘Facebook’ (August1st, 2010)

“I bought your book a few days ago, and am already feeling a great difference. 

I've been doing my own research for years, and the omega 3 - protein - live foods combo is such a helpful way for me to organize the positive things I've been learning about over the years.

So much of the nutritional info you're giving fits with what I've learned in my own reading in my efforts to figure out just the same thing, that there must be a way to get this body working the way it's supposed to.

Keep up your awesome efforts.

My clothes are already looser and I'm resisting the urge to get on the scales.”

Miriam Paknys

Montreal, Quebec, Canada

“I am still reading the book and listening to the CD so far, I am feeling really good, positive and not hungry. 

My clothes are getting looser and I have much more energy.

I don't know how much weight I have lost yet, as I haven't been on the scales.

Thanks for such great motivation.”

 Liz Burton

“I am 62 years old and have been following Jon's method for three months.

I had gained 6 lbs (3 kgs) the first month but lost 9 lbs (4 kgs) in the last six weeks. It is the first time, in the last forty years of my on and off dieting life, that anything has made sense to me.

Really, nothing else as ever resonated with me before! I just followed the diets because I was told to or because everyone else was, but none of them ever "felt" right.

I'm going for the gold now Jon!

Thank you so much for coming into my world and May the Force Be With You.”

Ria Civette,

“I have been telling everyone about your method.

I only started a week ago and have already lost 4 lbs (2 kgs), but the best part is, I feel so differently...something has definitely changed in me...and it's certainly for the better .... can't believe I'm craving apples.

You look fantastic.

Congratulations and thanks again for your support.”

Madlyn Ferro

Florida, USA

“After I lost "My" 200+ pounds (90 kgs), I like Jon decided to go into the weight loss business. However I began to regain some weight so my confidence level shrunk and I decided that maybe I didn't have all the pieces to the puzzle after all. 

Jon your method just rang true to me.  I'm following your program to the letter and its working.”

Jordan Hale

USA

“OMG it works !!!!! do you get sick of hearing that.

It’s only been a week and my clothes are already feeling looser. I am not weighing myself and not measuring. I am letting my body do what is natural.

This is the first time in my life I feel I can do this forever.

It is not a diet it is not a lifestyle...

So I just really wanted to say thank you.

Your book is very easy to read and makes total sense. Not once do you point the finger and say self control or anything like that. I look forward to my body returning itself to its natural self. What I am meant to be.”

Chris

Kalgoorlie WA

“I read your book cover to cover and then some. I've listened to your CD for two nights in a row, and started applying the principles of what you've said in the book in my life.

Oddly enough, weighing myself this morning I discovered I'm down 4 lbs (1.8 kgs) in just under two days - and for no apparent reason, I've eaten 'normally' or what's normal for me …

Something has changed - I can feel it.”

Kirsten

“Thank you for your courage and your persistence in finding your healing pathway. Your book is great and puts it all those theories together for an easy read with clarity.

I have passed it on to friends and they all love it.

It is helping both my husband and me to shed off those few unwanted pounds we accumulated in these past few years.  I also love your CD!”

Liliane

“I recently spoke to a lady who had lost 46 lbs (21 kgs) using your method.”

Judy Shelly, NSW, Australia.

“I am SO happy to be here! I have your book playing continuously in my iPod, I started Feb 18 with 95 lbs (43 kgs) to lose to change my life, and I’m 10 lbs (22 kgs) down with 85lbs (40 kgs) to go

(2 weeks).

Thank you thank you thank you Jon!”

Michelle

“Thank you. Since I started reading the book, I've lost 7 lbs

(3 kgs), effortlessly.

I am so glad I came across this when I did. Thank you again.”

Kat Villanueva

USA

“I have read the book and been using the night CD for approx 2 weeks.

I had reconciled many issues from the last 4 traumatic years but the last step was proving impossible and demoralizing. This step was/is to stop the habit that had helped me to survive, binge eating. It had become a focus that had never existed in my life before the trauma.

The combination of the book and the audio appears to be helping me to take the final step of defocusing on eating as a stress release and comfort mechanism.

The audio is also helping my sense of self esteem which I need right now as I have returned to Uni after 25 years!

I am delighted that I found John Gabriel's method.

I am lucky as I only need to lose 15-22 lbs (7-10 kgs).

I appear to have lost some already. I don't seem to feel that intense need to constantly put something in my mouth, especially chocolate. Thank you.”

Jacqueline Mendelsohn

Gail Bombardiere

Australia, (June 10th, 2010)

“Thank you so much, I'm really looking forward to this journey!

I lost approx 145 lb (55 kgs) two years ago, gained 44 lbs (20 kgs) last summer/autumn, but after I've started to use your method I've lost 2.3 inches (6cm) around my waist in just 1 week.

I recognize so many of the mental causes of obesity, and it helps me a lot to read something that confirms what I have experienced - your book has already helped me to get in contact with my tacit knowledge.”

Mari

“Cannot believe that it has taken me this long, at 45 years of age, to now know what your body needs to lose weight.  This is so easy....

I am still going strong. Losing weight...exercising...doing everything that Jon advocates.”

Lexley Wright

Australia

“I am listening to the CD at night and have shed some weight and going along fine so far.

I must admit though that I have not been very strict with the eating plan, but very happy with what is happening to my body anyway.

Jon's book and method is such an inspiration.
Thank you very much again.”

Sylvia, South Africa

Praise for the Gabriel Method

“He leído tu libro: 'El Método Gabriel', me ha parecido todo un descubrimiento, primero quería darte las gracias por compartir y escribir este libro, solamente leerlo es como si ya te quitaras un peso de encima jaja!

Tengo un sobrepeso de 40 kilos y soy ecologista, me gusta, me encanta la alimentación ecológica, por sus valores y nutrientes, doy clases de cocina ecológica para adultos y también para niños, me gustarí­­a encontrar una solución a mis kilos extra y por primera vez en mucho tiempo tengo ganas de iniciar un viaje distinto, fuera de dietas, culpabilidades ni frustraciones, no se donde voy a llegar, pero lo que si se es que quiero empezar, se que el camino es largo pero quiero empezarlo, muchas gracias Jon.”

Nuri Morral

Spain (March 11th, 2010)

“… for the first time in over 20 years, I am not hungry.

I feel content - just very different. For some reason, I don't seem to require a lot of food. My portion sizes have gotten smaller.

I don't measure them out, but I look at what's on my plate and it really is a small amount. I just don't feel that I need it.

I don't crave sweets either and I'm a chocoholic - at least I was one. Now I can take it or leave it.”

Liz Bay

44 year Sugar Addiction Stopped after only 2 weeks on Gabriel Method

“Just wanted to tell you my sugar addiction of 44 years stopped dead by 2 weeks of using the CD. I am amazed.”

Jenny Nova

Australia

“… while I've never had a weight problem, your work has helped me in at least two ways: first, since my husband died 20 months ago, I added 15 pounds and have slowly lost it over a year...but it would keep coming back in 2-3 pound lots. I now know why I gained the weight and how to take it off without cycling through diets and most of all without 'working' at it. So it's not off yet, but I'm understanding what happened, how my body interpreted that loss as 'starvation’.

... both of my young daughters (30 and 17) have fat problems and I now know so much better how to help them, or to let them be (but to offer your story and CDs). So, thanks forever on your work. It so resonates.”

Virginia Burton

Lost 20 kgs Only Doing Visualisations!

Many thanks for a great, commendable program, Jon. I am telling everyone all about you.”

Marianne Hale

USA (May 2009)

“I just wanted to let you know how your book has changed my life and to say thank you.

I have to date totally changed and when I think back about who I was then, I can hardly believe just how easy my transformation has been.

I have lost the 24 lbs (11 kgs) which was mostly around my middle and I look fantastic and feel fantastic at 57 years old and the biggest surprise to all who know me was to see the changes and that ‘exercise has become one of my greatest pleasures in life’! I have an hour of activity 6 mornings a week and love it - it is my time for me.

Right from the beginning, I understood the truth in what you said in the evening CD so it all just happened from there and I loved listening to it each night. It also helped me understand my personality and how my body was protecting me the best way it could.

I am so happy and grateful for your message and I am in no doubt that your program has actually saved my life because I and my doctor knew where I was heading.

I am now the happiest I have ever been as I have found this to be a 'new way of living and thinking' and I have startled quite a few people including my doctor with the changes that have occurred in me. She was very proud of me and said my cholesterol was ‘excellent’ as was my blood pressure readings.

The exercise has also had a huge calming effect on me and I feel great.

So I want to wish you all the best in the future and let you know you will always have a place in my healthy heart! The pleasure has been all mine!"

Jill McKellar

Australia (August 11th, 2010)

“I just started reading your book yesterday, and I have to say I've been blown away by your revolutionary ideas. I've applied visualization techniques using your CD for the first time last night and I'm feeling a big difference from within today.

Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge.”

Clint

USA

“I find I am no longer obsessing about food all day.  I have had chocolate bars and cake in the house all week and I have paid no attention to them, normally they would pray on my mind all day until they were gone, and still I would not be satisfied.

I am understanding my body now giving it a chance to live and do the things it was meant to do, I will from now on eat to live and not live to eat.

Gone are the days of constant dieting, taking pills and shakes and feeling guilty about food.

I now have a powerful tool (my mind) just took someone like yourself for me to realise it was always there for me and will work for me when I truly need it to. Once again, many thanks, truly liberating.

Any doubters out there I say, give it a go, you have nothing to lose but weight which has held you back from the true sense of living.”

Caroline

“I have been reading your book.  I believe it is going to have a huge impact on my life…. I am doing the CD at night. Your book really resonates with me … I do believe I am making better choices already too. Again, I so appreciate that you took the time to write your book.  I plan to change my life. Thank you.”

Jackie Vetter

IN, USA

“Firstly I would like to thank you for sharing your method with the world, it truly is an inspirational book you have written!!

I had my ideal body before having children and even after my firstborn I quickly lost the weight. After my second however I had gained 10 kilos and decided to go to a gym using my sister's wedding as motivation….

I am now 40 kilos heavier than I was just over 3 years ago at my sister's wedding. I bought your book and I finished it in one day, I couldn't put it down. I feel so good about myself and I have you to thank for it.

Even though I'm just beginning and I haven't lost any weight as such, but I feel like I'm starting a very good journey.

Today I saw my reflection in the shop window, and usually I would be horrified and get myself down and depressed about it, but thanks to you I smiled and thought, my body is the way it is now and I accept it… I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate you and your wonderful works.

PS: Even though I haven't lost weight yet I feel like I already am a success story. I can't stop feeling good and happy, Thank you again. God Bless.”

Rosalia Clay

“Jon’s book is so well laid out, easy to digest (in more ways than one!) and above all – gentle and kind.

His wish to help others, with kindness and the love of life, shines through. Thanks to all of your staff and to Jon for your genuine kindness.”

Teri Welles

“Really love your book and CD. I have followed your instructions and have added everything you suggested.  I am already feeling 100% better and have so much more energy. 

Like you, I have spent thousands of dollars on trying to get my health and weight right using both western and alternative medicine and had all but given up trying.

Thank You ... I really appreciate your great work.”

Anne Baker

“I just want to say that I absolutely LOVE your book and words cannot describe my gratitude for it. You have touched on things that I have been dealing with my whole life and wonder why they are never acknowledged in the health industry as contributing to weight issues.”

Lisa Markley

California, USA

“I would like to thank you for your program, which I have shared with all who will listen. Though I only recently started and have not lost any weight, your program has had an astounding effect on what I would have considered a completely unrelated area. I am a full time day trader and work from home. With your bond market experience, I'm sure you know better than most how much a psychological game this is.

Well! This diet has had a truly dramatic effect on how well I maintain emotional balance throughout the trading day. My head is clearer, my mood is better, and I can quantify an increase in profits starting within days of changing my diet and how I handle stress. Awesome! Thank you for your work.”

“…I am currently 76kg ...

A month and a half ago I was home from work having a ‘Mental Health Day’. I was run down and stressed and feeling like nothing was going to work out. My Mum was with me and gave me "The Gabriel Method". I thought it was a strange thing to offer someone who's stressed out and exhausted, a weight loss book? I took it anyway and began to read immediately and it was the best thing I ever did. I had tears streaming down my face within 10 pages. It all made sense…

I am currently the same weight as I was when I read the book and IT DOESN'T MATTER!! I look and feel different. I'm calmer and more patient. I'm healthier and more vibrant and I forgive and accept my body as it is. I have let go of the belief that I would never be as thin and beautiful as I was as a teenager and have embraced my ideal body! I have a photo of me in a bikini at 15years old by my bed!! I feel liberated and free and no longer have good and bad days! Every day is wonderful! Thank you Jon.... I'll never look back, Thank you so much!!!”

Kimberley Harris

“… your book literally is the book I have been looking for...

I have struggled with weight most of my life…

As I read your book, my body literally relaxed. I could feel it let go.

It has only been a week or so but I find I am not hungry and I only want to eat fresh and real. And my body is loving it.

The funny thing is that I have always eaten a pretty healthy diet except for bread and pasta, and that my body craved when I felt unsafe or scared.

In addition, I am claiming my passion - I have started a business called the Divine Cowgirl - and in order for this idea to come forth I have to be willing to be visible... and now I can hardly wait!”

“What a tremendous amount of research went into your method, and you and your family and friends who have given you so much support while you attempted and conquered the obesity syndrome. I am determined to follow in your footsteps dear friend. I too will then stand up in front of those who are in my present situation and help and encourage them like you are doing. Nothing will give me more joy and pleasure to be able to give of myself and share.

Thanks for wanting to share. You are so warm caring and amusing and so down to earth.”

Harold & Arlene Paradise

“I've read your book through twice and I'm absolutely knocked out. It's completely in tune with my other reading/research into Mind/Body connections, and I'm 100% SURE that I'll be able to knock off this gut I've had my entire adult life now.

I had already made significant dietary modifications and had lost SOME weight, but it seemed like I should have lost more, and now I understand why.

I'm really impressed with your overall holistic, common sense approach, and how you explained so many things I've known and accepted without realizing why they work (i.e. why visualization works, among others).

I'm recommending your book to everyone I know whether they're overweight or not (even my thin friends aren't eating right). I just wanted to let you know how excited I am to have found your book and for the changes to come.

Thanks so much for all of your work and research, and I'll keep you posted on the progress.”

Jeff Callaway

Oxford, MS

“First, let me say THANK YOU. I've read soooo many diet books and have a full library of exercise videos/dvd's, however, this is the first time that I have read a book (and listened to audio downloads) where it makes perfect sense from first page to the last. I've just begun and feel more empowered already.

I recently gained 20 lbs during a four-month period of unemployment. But after reading your book I get that it was due to fear of scarcity and I was trying to store as much as possible!! How freeing to realize that I now have a tool for the rest of my life to make sure this never happens again.

Life feels more do-able now thanks to your experience, research and desire to share with others.”

Pamela Babcock

USA

“WOW, you are amazing, there are millions of books out there in the ethers and lots of motivational speakers, but YOU are possibly the most inspiring story I have ever encountered!!! BRAVO to you and what you are sharing with humanity. Your book speaks directly to me and my ‘life journey’, so many things I never even considered in the past, looking forward to the authentic ‘me’!!!”

Lynn

USA

“… since I've read your book, and listened to you CD, I've been craving dark green leafy veggies, and I've also slowed way down on sugar. As a matter of fact I don't crave sugar. My daughter is doing great too. We both have committed to following your life style. I have other health concerns, and I'm confident this undertaking of healthy food will help.

I'm so grateful to you, for opening my eyes to bad eating habits. I tell everyone I see about your book and CD. I'm quite sure I will be praising you in the months that follow. Thank you so much.”

Anita

“All I can say is thank you for all of your hard work and research. I knew when I went from a naturally skinny person to 20 lbs over my natural weight that it was something other than having reached 30. I was getting so angry with the answer that it was having an impact on my health.

I managed to loose 10 lbs by eliminating the obvious offenders (fast food, and as much stress as I could...) but this last 10 was just going nowhere. I was also frustrated that no one wanted to discuss my weight and possible solutions because from an outsiders perspective I am already a good weight, but when it is not the body you are familiar with it is not the right body.

You have done my research for me! I knew something had shifted and now I know what that is and how to change it back. I know we are all on the path to physical change and expect to be able to add some lovely after pictures to your success list soon.”

Krista Armstrong

Canada

“Thank you. A friend of mine highly recommended it.  He's a health and nutrition nut who regularly give talks and lectures about all the dangers of the foods we eat and the things they are packaged in. I have learned a wealth of information from him and he rarely recommends any program actually, he is usually critical of them. 

Recently he has written a paper recommending The Gabriel Method saying he felt it was one of the very few programs that was actually "on target" - many programs come close to mark in some areas, but miss it in others, but he felt the Gabriel Method was well balanced and right on the mark. Because his standards are so high, that's an impressive recommendation. Knowing this program has passed through his critical sieve has stirred my curiosity and inspired me to ‘take the Gabriel challenge’. Thank you again.”

Diana, Cypress TX

USA

“I bought your book and I have read your book twice with enormous relish. When I read it first, I was mesmerized. An amazing moment for me was when I made the first attitude shift and started to apply your method to my life. Within just one hour of making that initial decision, I noticed my son who had been emotionally and verbally abusive to me on a daily basis since he was 7, began treating me differently.

Intuitively, I believe, he recognized the new me and he felt quite differently towards me and while at 14 he cannot name the change, I believe he has picked up on my internal change and as a result, I have started to love him again and we are both being more compassionate and for the first time in his life he is treating me with respect.

Thank you for giving me back my son and for helping me to love
myself again.”

“Just wanted to share with you my ‘ah ha’ moment. I finished your audio book day before yesterday, and listened to the last of your audio files, Weight Loss for Kids (which I think you could re-title Reversing Diabetes) yesterday. Later last night, I had my best session yet with your Mental Secrets CD. About 3:30 this morning, I awoke and everything had just clicked into place.

I have type II diabetes, and have been aware for some time of the issues of cellular inflammation and insulin spiking as it relates to diabetes. Your information made everything that much clearer, and the visualizations I have been doing with my ideal body made everything very real. After awakening at 3:30 this morning, I suddenly got the heart of your message in a clear and concise view:

I saw with absolute clarity and certainty that this whole process of total body transformation is extremely easy and natural, and that I will indeed be exercising with joy and (relative) ease soon, and that my body will be transformed to my ideal almost effortlessly, in about a year. I know that sounds kooky, but I absolutely experienced this as a certainty, and with a clarity of vision far surpassing anything in my conscious visualization attempts. I was so filled with joy that I could no sooner have gone back to bed and sleep than I could have flown to the moon. I was almost giddy, and could not stop smiling, seeing myself as I will be then, with a restoration of confidence that I know has been lacking as I have blundered through this world in my oversize body.

The amazing thing is that a large portion of that confidence I have been able to claim now, today, as I began my day and work. Thank you Jon, from the bottom of my heart—I know I can never repay you, but I shall be forever grateful.”

Blaine Elliot

“Fantastic everything you said is so perfectly in alignment with everything I have experienced in my life. I've been heavy since childhood but never had the key elements that you bring out in your book.

My wife and I have been taking training in an emotional release facilitation process that is exactly what so many of your people need that have the issues you speak of with being emotionally fat.”

“All is good now. I love your approach, I really do. I am not doing the scale thing, so I have no idea about weight, but I feel so much happier.

I am 58, and have had a weight problem since a tonsillectomy
at 3. Before that I was the skinniest kid in the neighborhood. I had managed to control my weight until my forties. Then all bets were off.

I have a PhD, so I am an academic person, but on the humanities side of things. I am very impressed by the humanity and thoroughness of this program. I finally feel like an ordinary human being with a problem, not someone who belongs in a room marked ‘fat person’."

“I'm on week 2 of your program and I'm already noticing a big difference.  I am almost 300 lbs and yet I can feel my new body becoming a reality. Thanks for your advice. God Bless.”

Geoffrey Richard

“I feel so grateful to have met with you, and to hear you speaking, was for me a great blessing.

I feel you have given me the keys to unlock my potential in all areas of my life. I have attracted so many positive opportunities since your seminar in Brisbane when you finished with a meditation which was for me, life changing.

Thank you with all my heart and soul. I feel a great burden lifting off of my shoulders, weight loss is no longer an effort, all I think about now is a new slim me healthy and happy. I feel this energy surging in my body and it totally confirms what my mind is thinking like my mind and body are finally talking to each other in harmony it’s an incredible feeling that keeps me motivated all day.

Finally I feel in control of my life and my weight issues are fading away into the distant past never to return. The Fat switch is off.

Thank you Jon. I am so grateful to you for guiding me through the maze of info and giving me the real facts on what we are capable of. For me, you have nailed this and the whole world needs to experience the Gabriel Method.”

Don Hemara

Australia

“I was so inspired by your story and recently read your book. I started listening to your meditation CD about a week ago, and have to tell you, it's brilliant! Nothing I've ever read or done, makes more sense and I'm already noticing subtle changes in my mind and body. I want to personally thank you.

As a naturally thin person myself, I was shocked to gain 75 lbs. during a very stressful period of my life, seemingly without changing my eating habits. I've carried that extra weight, more or less, for the last 15 years, and had pretty much come to accept it as my mature ‘set weight’. Now, thanks to you, I realize what happened to make my body turn on the fat program and am working on turning that around.

In the meantime, I'm really excited to tell you, that I'm sleeping through the night for the first time in years. I'm 54 and menopausal, and sleep disruption is a common complaint for women going through hormonal changes. There's no treatment other than hormone replacement therapy which is dangerous (and involves animal cruelty), or sleeping pills which are addictive, etc.

Well, since I started doing the bedtime meditation CD, I've slept through 7 nights in a row! This is HUGE. I'm convinced it's the CD. When I wake up too early, I take a deep breath, relax, and find myself falling back to sleep instantly.”

Vicki Haninger

“I have been on a search for a few a couple of years now and have felt I am going in the right direction but still hadn't found that one thing that would make things all click. I feel this is it….

I was in extreme pain from fibromyalgia.

My Dr said to just learn to live with it.

I don't view this as a disease but a result of many years of stress and mental pain. I didn't want to just live with it and survive or be on a bunch of medicine so I saw this as a chance to take the pain away. It has helped.

This long road I feel has led me to this book and now I will have my life back. I am 46 have four kids (my youngest being 9) and do not want to stay the way I am. I am grateful for the opportunity to be able to have the book and products that go with it… I just feel like there are so many things that are the same for me as in the book. I am not wonderful with words but just want to say how hopeful I am for a better life and seeing a door to it.”

“I wanted to say: THANK U, THANK U and THANK U...
Your book is INSPIRATIONAL to say the least ...

I want you to know that if I never shed 1kg... I thank you from the bottom of my heart... you are the LIVING PROOF of what I’ve believed for ages and I could not get my kinesiologist to ‘GET IT’ that my weight is NOT ABOUT FOOD... AND YET... when I phoned her the other day to discuss the fact I felt that “GUILT” was making me FAT... she told me about your book and told me to google it... the minute I put in Gabriel and weight... I KNEW... this FOR ME... and is overlit and arranged by ANGELS... for Me... it’s THE ARCHANGEL GABRIEL’S way of speaking to me... thru YOU, I am receiving confirmation of EVERYTHING I already believe and partly been practising.

You have given me HOPE... BOOSTED MY FAITH and got me excited...
I know I’m on the RIGHT PATH... SO WHEN... I have LET GO OF my 40 – 50 Kilos of FAT ‘cause I FEEL SAFE TO... I will be OVER THE MOON with JOY ‘cause I’ve done it the GABRIEL METHOD WAY!!!!

I also find your “SWITCH” a VERY POWERFUL VISUALISATION TOOL...
So... Once again, thank u for your inspiration, upliftment, empowerment and enlightenment... In mine and many other peoples lives - in love, light and gratitude”

I have been listening to his CD every night since March and I am a different person!!

I’m much calmer, I don’t get the shakes if I don’t eat, I crave yellow and red peppers all the time!! Its amazing.

I just wanted to reach out and say thanks for saving & changing my life forever. Gratefully,”

Elissa Connerty

USA (June 9th, 2010)

“I've listened to plenty of "weight loss CDs" blah blah... but yours is quite different.

I'm eager to listen each night before I drift off to sleep.

You speak as a friend! You speak wisdom.

And you have carefully chosen your words so as not to impose any value system on the hearer. Your respect, your caring, your sincerity, shine through.
… And it's not too long, not too short. And your sense stress and modulation are perfect.

So although my weight loss so far is minimal, I'm at ease. I'm not ‘trying not to diet’ or even watching what I eat. I'm just wallowing in the pleasure of being told all I have to do is breathe. YAY. I can manage that. And I can feel it working.”

Brenda

Bay of Plenty, New Zealand, (June 15th, 2010)

“I have bought your book and have also been enjoying your wonderful CD.

For me, your method is not just, or even primarily, about food; it's about ways to mend a dysfunctional lifestyle. I feel that your book, CD and web material have really turned my life in the right direction, back toward almost forgotten joy...

I am not conventionally overweight, but I have been going through a rough patch in my life. And your ideas and advice have been so timely and so helpful!

I wanted to express my huge gratitude to you for your help.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart!”

“I have just finished reading your book. I wanted to thank you for writing your book and helping so many people.”

Rachael Butler

“I started the G/M of last week. I am a 50 y/o female who suffers from Crohn's disease and IBS. I am allergic to artificial sweeteners and wheat (gluten) as well as react horribly to MSG. After suffering two years with the Crohn's and IBS, I came to understand that my weight problem was due to my diet. I would be craving something sugary when I first got up and would literally suffer migraines if I didn't have that sweet and creamy cup of coffee first thing.

When I received your book in the mail on Wednesday, I began reading it and at that very moment I started living the Gabriel Method. I have only been practicing this for 8 days and have already noticed a change. I am astonished at how much better, in just 8 days, that I feel. Thank you.”

Tami L. Bryan

USA

“I just finished your book, and I have to say I really wish more people would embrace this truth. It's so hard when we are faced with hundreds (thousands!) of diet propagandas to believe the truth when it is presented. But, everything you said... absolutely everything is essential to creating a mind-body connection and to overcoming obesity. What's really funny is you know the moment it clicks inside you... when the FAT program is turned off. You know when your body says ‘OK we are ready to get rid of this fat’. You don't have that click with a diet because you're too busy losing water and lean muscle (only to gain back the weight and worse-fat weight and not lean muscle mass.) …

Thank you for your brilliant research and for your honest message. I have passed this book on to all my friends!”

Jennifer Valenti

USA

“I cried from relief all the way through the first chapter. Just before downloading your book I had been deeply in touch with how I just wanted to feel joy in eating and be in touch with my own health and vitality. I knew I was no longer willing to try to ‘fix’ myself by imposing any more rigid ideas on myself about what I could or could not eat. Your book is an answer to a prayer I barely knew I was making. When my day started today, I felt hopeless, angry and discouraged about the state of my body. As my day ends I have hope that I can eat freely and joyously, be healthy and vital and still be thin.

Thank you for writing this book. Thank you for sharing your journey so openly and freely. Thank you for your courage in pioneering this process. Most of all thank you for offering hope.”

Linnaea

USA

“I want to lose 10 pounds. And while that may not be as much as some, I still want to lose it...or I did before I started reading your book. Now I just want to eat right and exercise. If I can do that, the weight will be where it's supposed to be.

The thing I want to comment on is the spiritual nature of the book. I think it should be talked about in that sense and not just as a ‘diet book’. This book is very much bigger than it appears and I want to personally acknowledge your search for health and your sharing of it with us.”

Sharon Beck

USA

“I purchased the complete package about a month ago. I felt an immediate connection & have been reading the book & listening to the CDs ever since. Something is obviously working for me, I feel like a different person. I crave fresh fruits & veggies & have become very interested in eating only healthy foods.

I enjoy doing the visualization every night, I feel it has a major impact on my day. I'm consciously working on several issues in my life to relieve stress. I love the Spiral Spinal Meditation you do on the 3rd Transformation CD.”

Karen Ecker

USA

“Ordered your book and CD and received it 10 days ago. I cannot believe the change in myself, I have not had the urge to jump on the scales as yet I have decided to wait a month, that’s a breakthrough in itself, I feel lighter I feel healthier, God I feel happier…

I am trying your method and I cant praise it enough, because for the first time in my life I really really want to be slim. Thanks John I will keep you posted.”

Michelle Sanderson

South Australia

“I firstly wanted to give a big thank you!!! I am so happy to have found your book and it’s great that you shared your story and your great experience with everyone!

I have used the techniques for a while and it’s been great. I could feel so happy, ate less, effortlessly, because my body did not want so much food.

Thank you for putting so much effort in helping people all over the world. You are a wonderful person! All the best Jon and a big thank you!!”

Delia Matei

Jane Mackay

“I received your book and CD a month ago, I began to notice and feel the changes in my body, a firming all over, the following week. I noticed my legs, arms, shoulders, body even my face and neck have become quite firm so quickly, as I do not have too much weight to lose I was not sure how my body would re-act. I am so pleasantly surprised.”

Doreen Wilkes

Western Australia

“This is all fantastic! I heard about and immediately bought the program two months ago. Everything is so well delivered, it's an awesome resource. I'm using the program myself to fill in the missing links to my own situation of healing my body after years of dental toxicity, leading to thyroid dysfunction, etc.

Finally, I keep hearing your declaration in my head about wanting an apology from the mis-informers about their brainwashing. Every time I hear an authority speak now about calories in-calories out, or "biggest loser" shame based, drill sergeant stuff, I think about the simple truth of re-setting the fat programs and reducing stress, etc., . . . well, clearly there is just a whole lotta need out there for this precise work....”

“First of all thank you so much - reading your book was like coming home. After struggling with weight all my life (I'm 42) I recently got to the heart of why I wanted to be fat. 

I've been wandering around telling my family that something had changed irrevocably but that it would take some time for my outside to match my inside.  Then my husband discovered your book - it was just a delight to read you had the same sort of epiphany too.

I am finding the tips in your method incredibly helpful (especially the water at night). “

“I have to tell you that I have been a different person since I found your computer link and bought your book.

All that since Tuesday, four days ago! I feel encouraged, lighter, feel as if there is lightness in my chest, actually got off my "tush", pin-pointed three reasons why I overeat - have started to do my homework, find I'm not obsessing on food as much, and bless the day I heard about you

I still have a lot to do - mainly throw out every diet book, how-to, and recipe I've been saving for years that I have in the house. Nuts to all of them. You're the only person who makes sense, seems quite sane and who truly understands.

You are one of those unique people I call an angel on earth.

Continued good health and success”

Thank you Sir, for all your hard work to uncover these life transforming secrets! I know that when all is said and done, the realization of the body transformation I set out to achieve when I purchased your book and audio files will be but a manifestation of the total life transformation that has already begun!

Thank you for living your dreams, and providing me the knowledge for how I can live mine!
