After
having our four children in less than three years...
I struggled tremendously with my weight.
I felt like my appetite controlled me, instead of the other way around.
My husband Mark worked two full-time jobs and I was home alone with the
children. Food was my friend, and I ate all day long every day.
At 5 foot 2, I weighed in at 180 pounds,
and the size 18’s just didn’t hide me as much as I wanted them to.
I cried the day I had to go shopping at Lane Bryant. (a "plus size store
for women")

After trying a number of "diets" and
failing, I sold all my "skinny" clothes in our garage sale. I was
depressed and resigned to being an "invisible, boring, overweight mom"
for the rest of my life.
I was actually grateful that my husband
was putting on weight too, so I didn’t have to feel like Jack Sprat’s
wife.
I was exhausted too, and at 31 years of
age, everything was falling apart. My health and my
appearance took such a toll on my self-esteem that my marriage was being
affected and I was on the brink of losing everything. I had spent
so much money on weight-loss programs that our finances were even
suffering. So when Mark brought home a little card someone had
placed on his truck that said "We Pay You to Lose Weight", I was
desperate enough to call and find out more. After learning about
the 100% natural, doctor recommended products, I tried the Advanced
Program and took the action I needed to begin to change my life.
