| My name is Toni and I began using Slim·Fast® on January 20, 2005. Within 10 months time, I have lost 88 lbs. Slim·Fast® has become the beginning of my day and from now on will always be the start of my day. Since I have been overweight for 45 years, I never dreamed that I could reach this point. At the age of 63 years old, I have now become diabetic. As soon as I discovered that I was diabetic, I immediately started to control my sugar intake the following day. My medical team approved my use of
Slim·Fast® as a meal replacement as well as a “treat”. I felt confident using Slim·Fast® because I knew that I was getting my daily requirements for vitamins and minerals and just simply ate right the rest of the day.
Week by week, I would lose a couple of pounds. I began to walk so that I could enjoy better health. I couldn't believe how easy it became as the days slipped by and the pounds fell off. I now pay close attention to the signals my body gives me and know at the end of a day when I should eat in order to maintain my blood sugar and maintain good health.
Otherwise, I never counted a calorie and just ate all of my meals with a carbohydrate limit in mind. I have two hard sugarless candies nightly at bed time and now I am able to have tiny normal treats but usually don't.
I don't know why I never figured this out before and why I was so overweight for 45 years. I have always been active but usually ate day and night every chance I got. I have now become a spokesperson for Slim·Fast® and I tell every overweight person who asks how I lost the weight to begin their day with Slim·Fast® and to build a new future on it.
I am so proud of myself and want to share my success with the world. In my after picture, I am seen wearing a dress which was saved for my granddaughters. The dress belonged to my mother who never weighed over 118 lbs. The dress might be old, but my thrill is ageless. I am sending this picture with my Christmas cards with pride.
It's never too late to begin a good eating plan and I found Slim·Fast® to be a good partner. As the days passed, I finally had hope that I would be the person I always dreamed I would be. I truly cannot say enough about Slim·Fast® products.
Sincerely,
Toni C.
