I had little energy, and  tried to eat less and exercise more, but it was so hard.  When I tried to do aerobic exercises it would be a major effort to keep up with my "Sweatin' to the Oldies" videos.  The diet I tried was the cabbage soup diet that my mother was always on, but it was so hard for me to stay on because I felt so deprived.  After a long week of starving myself, I had only lost 5 lbs.    So I went back to my regular eating habits - the chocolate chip cookie and lasagna diet!  I love to cook for my family and I over-ate because I always craved foods high in carbohydrates.  It seemed impossible to be any different than I was.

When I was introduced to this weight-management program, I was a little skeptical, but when I started on the products it got my attention when I lost 10 pounds the first week.  I had more energy immediately and I didn't feel deprived. In fact, I still ate dinner with my family: lasagna, pizza, enchiladas, pasta, etc.  On birthdays and holidays I would still eat the cookies, deserts or whatever everyone else was eating.  The difference was that I could stop eating after one portion.  In fact, I no longer have cravings because my daily dietary needs are met, due to the cellular nutrition benefits of this program.  My eating habits are in control!

Now I actually enjoy my aerobic exercise session and I don't get tired. I have some Herbal Concentrate then I put on one of my favorite CD's to have a good work out, and I feel like I am on top of the world for the rest of the day!  You can actually feel yourself getting stronger as you put on more muscle.  The protein enzyme has really helped me build and tone that muscle faster.   The best part is I've lost 40 pounds total!  I went from a size 18 to 11/12 ( the size I wore before I had children).  I can now wear clothes that I hadn't been able to fit into for years, and plus they are loose on me!  I am turning 40 this year and I feel like I did in my 20's.  Last week, I went on a hike with my kids up in the hills and I could keep up with them all day.  It was so nice to share their adventure.  We discovered a pioneer home site, saw a deer and some small animals, and it was so beautiful to explore nature’s back yard with them.   That is something that I never would have had the energy for a year ago.  I would have told them it was time to go home right after our picnic lunch.

This program has changed my life in so many ways. Besides having excellent health, my attitude is much better. I feel like I can accomplish anything.  My husband, Paul is enjoying these products too, not only because I am more attractive, but because he has had good results from them too.  He lost 25 lbs. (which got rid of his spare tire), and he has more stamina for the sports that he loves.  He can ride his mountain bike to the top of the steepest hill without getting off to walk.  Plus he can play basketball with the young 20 year-olds and keep up with them. He is 43 and swears that he is not going to get old!  We are definitely on these products for life.
