Lisa:  

Right now, as promised, Jon Gabriel, who I haven't talked to in quite some time because I was out for a while, is here on the show and we're going to continue with the Gabriel Method. As always, please go over to GabrielMethod.com/LisaJ or click on my page over at NewsSkyRadio.com and you will see a couple different links over to Jon's site, TheGabrielMethod.com/LisaJ where all kind of information is available to you.

Jon, welcome back, welcome to the show.

Jon:  

Good, Lisa, how are you?

Lisa:  

Oh my goodness, Jon, I am so much better.

Jon:  

Are you?

Lisa:  

It was a scary couple of weeks.

Jon:  

I'm so happy to hear that you're better. If you're having — you had a gall bladder problem, is that right? Or you had your gall bladder removed?

Lisa:  

Yeah, yeah, I had it removed and I had huge gall stones.

Jon:  

Yeah, I'm really sorry to hear that, but I just want to tell you, it's really important that if you had your gall bladder removed you need to take probiotics and digestive enzymes because the gall bladder is a very integral part of the digestive process, and if you don't do that you're not going to be absorbing your food as well, and then you're going to go into a kind of nutritional starvation where your body's going to stay perpetually hungry trying to get the nutrients it needs.

Lisa:  

You know what, that's so funny you say that because I lost a lot of weight. I went back to work and everyone's like, "Wow, you lost weight," and I'm like, "Yeah," but now it's been three weeks and I am just always hungry.

Jon:  

I know, it's because you're not digesting your nutrients properly and it will cause a lot of other problems, too. But one of the problems from a weight loss perspective is that your body is going to stay hungry. So you need to take digestive enzymes with your meals. I recommend a vegetable-based digestive enzyme because it has more of a full spectrum. It can digest lots of different types of foods. They're capsules you take with meals, digestive enzymes. They help you digest.

You also need to take, in the morning and in the evenings, probiotics. Probiotics are friendly bacteria, and they help your stomach and your digestive track regain the proper flora that it needs to digest properly.

Lisa:  

Yeah, it's very interesting because lately, I'm going to say in the past week, I went from I couldn’t eat anything to now just being starving and I want a lot of bread and I know anything with bread –

Jon:  

No, that's not good. That's your body starving for nutrients and that's not good.

Lisa:  

Fabulous.

Jon:  

And then if you continue to eat that bread, what happens is your body is going to get your insulin levels up and insulin's the fat storage hormone. Eventually, the cells of your body are going to stop listening to insulin and that's going to cause a condition where your insulin levels go up very high. That's a precursor to Type 2 diabetes and it also stops your body from burning fat because insulin is the fat storage hormone.
               

So what happens is, your body goes into this perpetual fat storage mode and it shuts down your ability to burn fat. It's a viscous cycle. You can prevent it, but you have to start now and you have to really do it for the rest of your life. You have to take digestive enzymes with your meals pretty much the rest of your life, and you have to take probiotics in the morning and the evening.

Lisa:  

And where do I get these, at a health foods store?

Jon:  

Yeah, you can go to a health foods store. I can actually make a recommendation. I think the best probiotics out there and digestive enzymes are from a company called Garden of Life. I don't have any relationship with them, but I happen to think they're the best. They're from Garden of Life. The probiotic is called Primal Defense, and it's got all of the different friendly bacteria and friendly microorganisms that your stomach needs. So it's called Primal Defense. And the digestive enzyme is called Omegazyme. They're both by Garden of Life. You can get them at health foods stores, you can buy them online.

Lisa:  

Okay, Primal Defense. I wrote all this down because honestly, and I'm glad you're telling me this because I'm wondering to myself going, what is going on? Why am I just hungry and I don't want to just get fat from this. I mean, I haven't had problems with my stomach but it's been really interesting and see, if you say it, all right. I'm going to check it out after the show.

Jon:  

Yeah, and there's a couple of components. One is that, so take the Omegazyme with meals. Take the Primal Defense in the morning with water and then in the evening before you go to sleep, and that's got to be a habit you adopt.

The other component is that you suffered a trauma, and sometimes when you suffer a trauma your body goes into a state of protection mode. And one of the ways your body tries to protect itself is it actually uses fat as a form of protection. That's going to make you hungry all the time.

I remember I had a friend who got into a motorcycle accident and for six months he didn't want to leave his room; all he did was eat. Your body goes into — it's like being in a cave. Your body wants to protect itself. It had a trauma.

So at a certain point, I would recommend that maybe you work with somebody to just kind of release the trauma on a cellular level by doing some sort of regression therapy, some sort of visualization.

Lisa:  

Can you help me do that?

Jon:  

Yeah I can.

Lisa:  

I mean, I'm not going to do it here on the air, but privately.

Jon:  

Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, sure. We can try a little bit of both, but we can work together and then we can talk about it.

Lisa:  

Yeah, because it wasn't just that. I had that and then the day I got out of the hospital, without getting into all my stuff on the air, something else happened that was unbelievable and was more traumatic to me. Literally the day after I came home from the hospital, the next day I got these papers in the mail and that was more traumatic to me, I think, than my surgery. So I got like a huge double whammy that now that has kind of surpassed the physical part, but yeah, I know I need to listen, especially after having you on the show and listening to you. I really need to listen to my physical body, which I'll be honest, I have not been doing because this other thing felt like such a violation that I've been dealing with that now on top of it. So it's like a big two things.

Jon:  

Okay, so then you and I will have a conversation.

Lisa:  

Yeah, I think so. I think that would be really good if somebody could help me because honestly, it is, and I've been thinking about — and don't take this the wrong way, but your book I have with me all the time and I was like right there and I was doing it and then I went through this and I kind of just put it aside, although I knew what I was doing of putting it aside, not a good idea because I knew what it was doing. I don't know, something told me that I needed to talk to you, and not a coincidence that we're connecting now.

Jon:  

No, okay, so after the show maybe if you send me an email about what time we can talk. Hopefully it wouldn't have to be 4:00 in the morning my time.

Lisa:  

No, no, well you had to go and move to Australia, Jon, no one told you to go move to Australia. Or hey, I can go to Australia and then we can do it in a formal time. How about that?

Well let's talk about your book, The Gabriel Method, because really, I continue to get bombarded, in a good way, with emails of everybody just wanting to buy your book. And every time I go into — I have maybe like four or five different emails in different places, there's at least one every single day saying, "Where do I get this book that everybody's talking about?" So this is a good thing, and I can't really tell you how happy I am to know that you're here every Monday at 4:00 in the afternoon with us. So what day is it there in Australia? Is it already Tuesday at 4:00 AM?

Jon:  

It's Tuesday morning, yeah.

Lisa:  

Well, you're one day ahead of us. How's Tuesday looking for us?

Jon:  

Dark still because it's 4:00 in the morning. I'll tell you what, yesterday was one of the most beautiful days I have ever seen in my life. I mean, the bluest of blue skies, and out here we've got a swimming area in the ocean that's kind of rocked off by breakers where there's just no waves and I was swimming yesterday with goggles and stingrays were floating all around and beautiful fish and you could see as clear as if there wasn't water. I mean, it was just so clean and beautiful and it was just a gorgeous, gorgeous day and I'm hoping for something like that today. But it's fall here, so sometimes it's cloudy, sometimes it's sunny and it's just gorgeous, it really is.

But as far as my book goes, I'm pretty sure my books available at most bookstores in the states. Last I heard it was. If not, you can certainly get it from my website, GabrielMethod.com.

Lisa:  

Oh for sure. And I have to tell you, now we talked ourselves into a break, but we're going to come back because we have the whole however long to talk about all this, but I always said that if I move to Australia, because I'm like the endless summer girl, I just want it to be summer all year round, I could move there for half the year and then come back here. And then people are like, "Well you can't have summer all the time," and I said, "But you can."

Jon:  

Well you can, yeah.

Lisa:  

You just have to be creative.

Jon:  

No, you definitely can. If you come out here, actually there's summer all year round in certain areas. If you go far enough north it's going to stay summer for you.

Lisa:  

Well then, you know what, I may just have to — I've always wanted to be in Australia. I've always wanted to be there. I feel very drawn there. So interesting.

All right, I'm getting the wrap up from my producer, so we're going to take a break, but when we come back, where did we leave off? On Chapter — are we on part 3 already?

Jon:  

I think it was like five or six. We were talking about visualization is what we were going to talk about.

Lisa:  

Yeah, so we're going to take a short break, and when we come back, we're going to talk — oh I know where we left off because last time, but we can talk about it again, we left off on chapter 6 so we're on chapter 7, creating the body of your dreams. So that's where we're going to go. GabrielMethod.com, please go check out Jon's book. Rock star, big time, gets it, gets it through and through and can help you in ways that you just can't even imagine, and the cool thing is you totally can trust him.
