Weight Loss Non-Diet Solution Review 2
Jon Gabriel was talking about a recent Harvard study took 800 overweight individuals and assigned each to follow one of four specified regimes:
· low fat/average protein
· low fat/high protein
· high fat/average protein
· high fat/high protein
The participants’ progress was tracked for two full years.
At six months the average weight loss was around 12 pounds, regardless of the diet the participants were following.
As you might suspect, many participants gained some of weight back right away that first year and after 2 years, the average amount of weight lost was similar for each of the four diets: a pathetically low 7 to 9 pounds.
People following any diet that restricts food intake are likely to lose some weight in the short time. Well, that's common sense no big deal, however, what he said though that the study revealed in small print at the end of the report that got his attention. It stated that "the more support sessions the participants attended, the more weight they lost and the less weight they gained back. And the average weight loss among participants who attended the support group sessions was 20 lbs compared to 9 lbs for those who did not. That is a WOW staggering 225% different!"
Jon Gabriel said in his book “The Gabriel’s Method” that your mind is your greatest tool for transforming your body and your life. He said, diets and exercise programs work great for some but not for others after the program stop or whatever regimes you’ve been tried. And that is why a lot of people (including me) are like yoyo, up and down on their weight or gained all that weight back. He got my ears on this part.
Jon Gabriel said that your body gains weight to protect you from real or perceived dangers in your life. I confirmed with this because I knew this from my mother. My mother used to be a midwife before we moved to the Mainland (United States). Hospital, money and buses were a dilemma on the island those days. She always had clients. I heard her said this many times to advise new mothers-to-be or pregnant mothers that were having pregnancy difficulties in gaining too much weight or gain none at all. So, now somebody else is saying it beside my mother, that’s flash back or me. Go Mom! My mother only made it to 8th grade and knew this long ago…long before Gabriel. I should have listened to my mother...this excites me more about his method. Come to think about this, my mother never lost a client, and all her clients and babies were healthy.
How interesting?
Gabriel's approach makes a lot of sense amd more importantly it works. It helped a lot of people all over the work as we see the testimonials page. Find out more!
