The skinny on weight loss

What are you doing for the next 30 to 90 days? Some of you will be going on vacation. Some of you will be going about your normal routine. But whichever you choose, 30-90 days will go by. Ask yourselves - Where would I like to be in 30-90 days? Some of you would say, I would like to be able to get off my medications.

Some of you might say - I would love to be 30, 50, 100 pounds lighter. What would that do for you? How would you feel about yourself if that could happen? From first-hand knowledge I can tell you losing 27 pounds of fat was an unbelievable experience. The self confidence and appreciation of looking healthier and younger was worth every bit the effort many times over. I think of one of our patients who lost over 50 pounds before her wedding this summer - priceless.

I'm sure many of you have had these results, but like 95 percent of those who have lost weight dieting and been able to get off their medications, you gained it all back and then some. It is disheartening and often unhealthy. So what makes this Ideal Protein diet/treatment different? Why should I believe this actually is The Last Diet I will ever need? If you had read my earlier articles I had written this year you would know the answer to that.

If you haven't read those articles, please come to our next free class that will explain how people sabotage their weight loss experiences by unwittingly working against their physiology - not with it.

Let me share one individual's experience that illustrates my purpose in administering this incredible diet/treatment. I received a letter and lab slip from a doctor in Orofino, Idaho who recommended this patient go on the Ideal Protein diet/treatment because his cholesterol level was 4,100. Yes, you read that correctly, 4,091to be exact. His name is Jim and he wrote:

"The reason I started using the Ideal Protein Program was because my total cholesterol was at 4,100.

My palms were covered with Xanthomas (tumors). My feet had pea sized hard lumps on my heels, making it painful to stand. I had to work with gloves on my hands. Also, on both of my index fingers, I had large hard lumps that were so painful that if I bumped them, even lightly, the pain was such that I thought I would pass out.

I have seen several doctors including two dermatologists. I also had three different biopsies. I feel like the medical community failed me. None of them had any ideas what to do. At least one of them tried steroids injections in the Xanthomas. The steroids did not help.

In the past I had severe sensitivity to sunlight and heat. I could not tolerate being in the sun for any period of time. Now, the sun does not bother me at all. I can tolerate heat much better.

Dr. Harper felt the Ideal Protein Program would get my cholesterol level down. He had no idea about the Xanthomas. Four weeks into the program, I have noticed some weight loss, a major increase in energy, my Xanthomas were gone, and completely pain free. After only four weeks on Ideal Protein, I had a lipid panel done and my cholesterol went from 4,100 to 230.

Dr Harper and his staff were great! Ideal Protein worked way, way better than I would have ever thought. Thank you so much. I have one question: Can I buy stock in this company?"

Jim may not be able to financially invest in the company, but he made a better investment. He invested four weeks in his own health and what a payoff. Folks, this isn't just weight loss. This program can be a major shift in your health and your body's ability to heal itself.
