Download or read book Gabriel Method written by Jon Gabriel and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-11-13 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jon Gabriel lost over 100 kilos without dieting or surgery and amazingly his body shows almost no sign of ever having been morbidly obese. His totally unique and groundbreaking approach to losing weight is backed by solid, cutting edge obesity research from over four years of full-time investigation of the roles of biochemistry, neurobiology, quantum physics and human consciousness in weight-loss. The result is a method that defies "common sense wisdom" and yet achieves dramatic lasting benefits. Celebrity obesity survivors like Muhammad Ali's daughter Khaliah and Robin Moran, star of The Discovery Channel's show Super Obese, are strong advocates of Jon's Weightloss approach, which has also been featured on A Current Affairand Today/Tonightin Australia as well as on numerous radio shows and newspaper articles internationally. In addition to telling Jon's own story of his amazing transformation, the book reveals why diets don't work and explains a truly unique and revolutionary diet-free way to lose weight. It's based on the fact that your body has an internal logic that determines how fat or thin you will be at any given time. The way to lose weight is not to struggle or to force yourself to lose weight but to understand this internal logic and work with it so that your body wants to be thinner. When your body wants to be thinner, weightloss is inevitable and becomes automatic and effortless. You simply crave less food, you crave healthier foods, your metabolism speeds up and you become very efficient at burning fat, just like a naturally thin person. And that's the real transformation - to transform yourself into a naturally thin person, so that you can eat whatever you want whenever you want and still be thin, fit and vibrantly healthy.

In early 2018 he had this realization that if reading books is going the way of television, MySpace, and the dodo bird, then he better give people something other than long narrative to help change their lives. But in our hectic world of head-down and swipe-up, what medium could Dr. V use to capture and HOLD the attention of his audience?Then it occurred to him...people want (and need) easily accessible information that they can consume quickly that is also interesting to look at. So he created short, graphic, downloadable PDF reports that were not only useful but also beautiful. And people loved them! These "Dr. V PDFs" became very popular, receiving thousands of downloads. He encouraged people to print them out and create a binder with them. But he soon discovered a problem.After printing only 2 of the PDFs himself, his printer ran out of ink! The reports were so graphic and colorful but they used up a lot of ink. He really wanted people to have the beauty of these reports all in one place, so he created this book.This book represents a collection of those popular PDFs. While it is geared towards the weight loss community, many of the concepts and teachings are applicable to everyone. The topics range from the proper diet to breaking bad habits to saving money, even how to deal with criticism.Dr. Vuong's goal is to have this book become a quick go to reference and fun read for anyone looking for guidance to the most common questions we encounter in our every day living.
