Well, here I go again!!! TOWN really was NOT for me, and I really thought it might of been the missing link - NOT!! For one thing I think I was the youngest there (in fact I am pretty sure) with the average age being about 65 (and I am not kidding). Nobody was really obese at all, and it was mainly used as a social gathering so I really did feel out of it. The premise works and I do like that but I need some sort of incentive and I also need to get something out of the meetings otherwise I am wasting my night when I could be at home with my family. So, all in all, I went twice and that was it. SORRY TOWN.....
So, yet again I was on the lookout for my next venture. Surely there is something out there that I haven't tried yet. Well, low and behold I came across The Gabriel Method - a book that honestly I have seen over the last year but just thought (for some reason) that it was another protein diet and never did get it. So, I looked into it further and found that it was far from it. I downloaded the visualisation technique and started listening straight away. I also found podcasts on itunes (free also) and have been listening to him and I must say I am impressed.
His theory is that every time you diet it gets harder and harder to stay thin as your body is going into starvation mode. He himself got as high as 186kilos and he says he dieting his way to that weight. I can totally relate to that. He is now like 90kilos and looks amazing. I like the fact that he can relate to obese people as he has been there and he totally believes that dieting does not work - haleluya, somebody I can really relate to.
So, here goes my not dieting diet. And I know I have gone down that track and put on heaps but with his visualisation techniques as well as adding foods like omega 3, digestive enzymes and live foods (rather than take food away) I think this just may be the different no-diet I have been looking for.
No more counting calories, points, fat grams, carb grams - just eat when I am hungry and stop when I am full.
My weight today is 115.5kg (OMG) and my goal weight is 70kilos. If this doesn't work then lapband is my next option.
