5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read
I was surprised by this book. I have read a dozen weight loss books. This book really deals with the mental side of weight loss. I contains positive visualization techniques. I found myself rereading chapters as the content was a constant reminder on how to change my additude about my body and the way I look at food.

However you choose to eat to lose weight...

3.0 out of 5 stars losing fat
This book has some interesting ideas of the reasons why people put on weight. Not just about the food we eat but the way our body reacts to stresses in our life causing weight gain. It is a bit "new age" in places but aside from that is OK.

However you choose to eat to lose weight or eat more healthy, read this book. It's like the lost chapter to every book I have ever read.

So many people don't realize how much stress they are holding onto from present & past. Jon Gabriel's approach will have different results for everyone as everyone is different. But if you truly follow and stick to his guidance you will have great results. His visualiztions are fantastic. The cd to listen to at night is wonderful! I am recommending his book to all my clients and they are loving it. I personally have benefited greatly from this book and that is why I recommend it so highly.

I ordered the Gabriel Method and have read through it two times in four days, it really opens your mind and eyes to what is so oviously reality. We just need someone like Jon to take control and get the message out. My mindset each day that goes by is truly changing. I feel confident saying that this book will see me through to the end of my weight loss journey! Sincerly Lynn McLean

4.0 out of 5 stars Intrigued!, Sep 14 2009

This review is from: The Gabriel Method: The Revolutionary DIET-FREE Way to Totally Transform Your Body (Paperback)
The author introduces new revolutionary ideas regarding weightloss. One of my favorites was that if diets worked, we'd all be slim! Be prepared for some very open-minded ideas about how the brain-body connection works and to do some very difficult (but achievable) homework to really test out the author's ideas. He takes many different ideas from a wide range of sources and sythesizes them into a general theory about personal transformation (including weightloss). The impressive part is that he practices what he talks about as he himself is a formerly obese man. As I read, I felt that the author understood me and my challenges with food and was sympathic, not judgemental. A definitely interesting read if you really are tired with the usual diet strategies.

5.0 out of 5 stars The LAST book you will ever need on weight loss, Jun 17 2009
This review is from: The Gabriel Method: The Revolutionary DIET-FREE Way to Totally Transform Your Body (Paperback)
The last book you will ever need to buy on the subject of weight loss. Why? This book will get you to your goal, and help you stay there. Nothing works like this, and it is for good. You will need no other fancy plan, wierd food, crazy trainer, or the endless supply of items the diet industry dreams up every year to fuel our hopes of success. Ok, so I was skeptical too, and figured this book would end up the pile of diet/fitness books I already have. I was pleasantly surprised at the deep rooted reasons and mind-body connection explained in the book. It all finally made sense, and so I was free.

I really hope anyone with weight issues will buy this book. I promise it will change how you view yourself and your health, for the better. You won't need to ever spend anymore money on diets and such. You can use the money for your new clothes instead.

Everyone has a calling, and Jon Gabriel has found his. I am so grateful for that, and hope you'll give him the oppurtunity to help you as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars The best book ever written on weight loss - READ THIS BOOK!, Oct 26 2008
By 
Cindy Madden (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Gabriel Method: The Revolutionary DIET-FREE Way to Totally Transform Your Body (Paperback)
Although this book isn't being published in North America until the end of the year, it is already a bestseller in Australia where the American author is living. I am a Librarian in Canada and I ordered the title from a publisher's catalogue for my library, but I was so intrigued I looked for more information online and ended up ordering the book from Jon Gabriel's website (http://www.jongabriel.com.au/) because I didn't want to wait - I'm glad I did. (I will be ordering multiple copies from Amazon to give to people I care about who could benefit from this information.)

Do yourself a favour and read this book; you will not regret it. I hope Oprah reads this book - for her own sake - and so that she will have Jon Gabriel on her show; then millions will have the chance to benefit from the wisdom and practical advice Jon has honed from his own experiences.

I have known for years that diets do not work, and I believed that there were biochemical/physiological reasons for obesity in addition to the ususal "surplus of calories with a deficit of activity"; Jon's background and research into these factors validates and explains my own suspicions.

I have been aware for years now that while I consciously want to be thin, for very powerful reasons I have subconciously NEEDED to be fat. I have been working on resolving these issues psychologically, and with Jon's wonderful book and brilliant ideas, I now have many new tools to try. He talks about how the body itself, in addition to the unconsious mind, can act to keep you fat if it is convinced your safety and survival depend on it - he explains why this happens, and how to counter it.

I hope the North American version of the book includes the audio CD that accompanies the Australian version; it is a wonderful meditation you listen to before going to sleep every night that helps to counteract the forces that contribute to overweight.

The Gabriel Method is the best book I have ever read on the subject of weight loss (as a librarian, I have read a lot!); do yourself a favour and read this book. Stop trying to lose weight without addressing the real reasons you are fat; if your mind - and your body - NEED to be fat, no diet could ever possibly work (for long, at least). Don't hate yourself for failing yet again at something that is IMPOSSIBLE until you understand what is really going on, and how you can meaningfully address the true forces that drive your behaviors and outcomes.

Jon Gabriel shows us how to truly nourish and care for our bodies' fundamental needs and how to work with our minds to create the changes that will transform our very lives, including losing weight.

Jon Gabriel approaches weight loss problem from a revolutionary point of view. His so called "method" is truly unique and original. Furthermore, the book helps not necessarily overweight people. It is a comprehensive journey to change our very souls making us better human beings.
