FLAVOR POINT
SUCCESS STORY # 3
Maureen McGowan

"I just got into a pair of jeans I haven't been able to wear for 3 years!"

I found out about Dr. Katz's program at the perfect time— 6 months before my wedding.

I was at my thinnest when I was in boot camp. Then, I only ate three meals a day and exercised constantly. When I got out of the military in 1995, I put on 40 pounds pretty fast.

"I'm not hungry at all on this program."

I tried many different programs in attempts to lose weight, but I always
felt like I was starving. I'm not hungry at all on this program. It always
seems like it's time to eat again-you have your breakfast, then a snack like fruit, then your lunch, then a snack like a fruit smoothie, and then it's time for dinner.

A lot of times, I'm not even hungry for my nighttime snack. I don't feel like I'm depriving myself at all, and I see the pounds dropping off, which is motivating.

On Dr. Katz's program, not only do I feel like I'm eating a lot, but I'm eating much better than I used to, and I really do enjoy these recipes. I enjoy the chicken dinners… and I love the pineapple shrimp.

People have definitely noticed my weight loss, particularly at work. Personally, I can see that my face and butt are thinner…I just got into a pair of jeans I haven't been able to wear in 3 years!

I still need to lose another 20 to 30 pounds, so I'm going to keep up with Dr. Katz's program. I love the results I've gotten so far, and I'm looking forward to seeing more.
