I didn't realize how much stress was affecting my behavior, ruling my thoughts and helping me gain unwanted weight.
After I read about the Gabriel Method for weight loss I felt a sense of peace with in seconds.
It seems so simple dump stress, lose weight. Why couldn't I see this years ago!!!! John makes everything seem so clear. And that is when we are stressed, depressed, have unresolved issues and are lying to ourselves we tend to constantly crave junk in order to pad our feelings. But instead we end up padding our bodies with extra layers of fat as a result.
I used to bottle stress and wear it daily as my favorite perfume since the beginning of time. I would hear people say practice relaxation techniques but I was wound so tight the message never got through. And usually the greater the stress the greater the caloric downfall.
Finally the message got through crystal clear after I was able to resolve a large relationship issue. It was like a million pound weight was lifted and so was my clarity and focus.
Facing the truth is so difficult and lying to yourself or living an unauthentic life is pure misery that can never be fixed with food, booze, codependent relationships or shopping until your broke.
Nothing changes until issues are resolved and peace can come through you.
Food choices get better, exercise is given a priority, real love of oneself takes over and fears disappear.

Let your reason get you back up." - Les Brown
