    I was never what you would call a skinny girl. From the time I was 10 I was always a little pudgy. As a teenager I struggled with my weight. It was then that I started dieting. I really didn’t know what I was doing. I would just eat 1 or 2 meals a day thinking I would lose weight. I would for a little while but I could never last long on 2 meals a day and soon I would gain the weight right back. After I got married and started having children I really started to gain weight. After my third child, I weighed 200 lbs.! I tried so many different diets. I tried Slim-Fast. I lost weight but as soon as I started eating food again, the weight would come back on. I tried a no sugar diet and ended up gaining 20lbs.! I tried the pre-packaged diets and other fad diets you name it, and I tried it. All with the same results. I’d lose a little weight at first then I would go right back to my old eating habits and gain it right back. After years of yo-yo dieting and starving myself, my weight stalled because my metabolism was shot. I was miserable. My weight was affecting so many areas of my life. I hated to get up in the morning because I could never find anything to wear that I felt good in. I hated to look at myself in the mirror. I felt like a failure! Heart disease and diabetes run in my family so I was worried about that too. I was facing the fact that I would always be overweight so I might as well get use to it. I started praying for wisdom how to lose weight in a healthy way and keep it off for good. I was tired of “fad diets”. Then one day I came home from work just feeling down about my weight and I turned on the television. I was flipping through channels and I saw Michael Thurmond’s program. It caught my attention. What he said made sense to me. It was like a light bulb went off in my head! This was the answer I was looking for! I just couldn’t believe that I could eat more and exercise less and lose weight. What sold me was his money back guarantee. I figured I didn’t have anything to lose. I would give it a try. When I got my kit in the mail I put my own personal book together for my unique body type. My book was so informative it helped me to understand why and how to lose weight and keep it off. I realized why I had so much trouble in the past. I was eating the wrong types of foods at the wrong time and not enough food during the day. I couldn’t wait to get started. At first my husband was skeptical. Every time he saw me eating another meal he would say, “You’re eating again?” He thought I would gain weight after eating so often. But when the weight started falling off of me, he became a believer and went on the plan too. He even lost 20lbs. So many people that see me say that I have inspired them to lose weight. One person even told me I look like a model now! They say if that if I could do this they could too! They can’t believe I eat so much now and have lost so much weight. I feel so healthy. I have so much energy. I feel good in my clothes. This plan works just like Michael says, “Eat more, exercise less, and lose weight!” I am living proof! This plan has become my way of life. I have the knowledge I need to eat the right foods at the right time for my unique body type. I don’t feel out of control anymore. It has changed my life!

    Hey Mardi-Gras Mamma,

    None but the best get to get the privilege of being a Provida Pin-up... well, how could you not being a Infomercial veteran?  You definitely are deserving with the success you have achieved!  You ARE an inspiration to us all... even the long-timers.  One day I hope to be as famous in my efforts as y'all. 

    And someday I know we will end up at the same Skinny Minnie gathering.  It's just a matter of time before I can hug ya, and laugh with you in person.

    You are AWESOME!
