Visualization for Weight Loss -The Gabriel Method

The FAT Programs: The Real Reason You’re Fat

same circumstances. So please let go of any guilt, frustration, or other negative feelings you might be experiencing about not being able to lose weight. There is nothing wrong with you! Your FAT Programs are on, that’s all. You are not any “weaker” or “less disciplined” than thin people. The only difference between you and those naturally thin people is that your FAT Programs are turned on and theirs are not. That is it. If anything, you are probably stronger and more disciplined than thin people. Naturally thin people eat whatever they want. Where is the discipline in that? You, at least, make an effort to control yourself. The sad irony of the situation is that all your efforts to control yourself, although well intentioned, may not only be exacerbating the problem, they may even be the cause of it! As I am sure you must know by now, struggle doesn’t work. If it did, there would have been no need to buy this book at all. What works is to get your body to want to be thin. When your body wants to be thin, the FAT Programs are turned off, you quickly and easily lose weight, and you keep it off without struggle and without dieting. Understanding Why Your Body Would Want to Be Fat Here’s the only concept you need to get in this whole book. Once you get this, everything else just falls into place.

Your body wants to be fat anytime it decides that being fat is the best way to keep you safe.

As far as your body is concerned, life is all about safety. Your body is not your enemy and it is not out to get you; it’s just trying to protect you. Actually, your body has a brilliant logic that makes perfect sense. All you have to do is understand your body’s logic and work with it as opposed to struggling against it. You have to convince your body, using its language and its reasoning, that being thin is the best way to keep you safe.
