Dear Larry,

I just wanted to thank you again, wish you a happy holiday season and tell you about my latest progress. I couldn’t have done this without you and your program!

First, I have kept my weight off for seven years. As you may remember, I started your program in a size 16 and 175lbs. Today, my 4’10” body is 115lbs and a size 2!

With my leaner body and fit lifestyle, I have been doing some exciting new things I never thought I would do.

In October 2006, I took up running. I completed my first 15k in about an hour and 40 minutes in March of this year. After completing that event, I wanted a new challenge…so a personal trainer friend of mine who helped me train for the 15k suggested I take up triathlon because she said “true athletes cross train and do multiple sports!” This sounded interesting and fun, but I didn’t know how to ride a bike. Sure, I rode a bike when I was about 6 years old, but it had a banana seat and no gears and I haven’t ridden one since, so that hardly qualified. Well, determined that this would be a great challenge, I learned to ride a bike and competed in my first sprint triathlon in August, finishing in under 2 hours! I got bitten by the triathlon bug badly and love the training so much that I am now training all year long and looking forward to the 2008 tri season.

I couldn’t have done this without you! Your program changed my life. I feel great and am more fit than I have ever been in my adult life, even more fit than when I was thin and in my 20’s! My cholesterol, which was never high even when I was obese, is 155. My doctor is in awe! And the reason it’s so low is because of my healthy eating and exercising lifestyle.

I cannot begin to tell you how grateful I am that I had insomnia that night and saw your infomercial. I cannot thank you enough for changing my life and making me healthy again. My former doctor couldn’t do it. She kept telling me for four consecutive years during my annual check up to just eat less and less and exercise more. Right before I saw your infomercial, she had me down to 700 calories a day and 1-2 hours of exercise a day. She was starving me to death and I felt horrible…tired all the time and physically exhausted. You gave me back my energy, my health, and gave me a new lease on life. I am forever grateful to you.

Everyone I know asks me how I did it. I tell them, buy this book called Larry North’s Slimdown for Life. I tell them if they follow the plan, they too will look and feel better than they ever thought was possible. I am a living testimonial the program works.

Again, thank you! You have given me back a precious gift, my health and I am forever grateful to you.

Sincerely,

Lauren A
