From 330 to 150 pounds? From size 34 to 8 -- all in just over a year? Impossible? No! Miraculous? Yes! I give all the glory to God, but Kimkins has played a major role in my success, and I will be forever grateful that I started this program on June 25, 2007.

At age 59 I had been overweight almost my entire life and what doctors label morbidly obese for the last 20 years. I had lost and regained or utterly failed at many programs, including Appetite Control (like Weight Watchers), Overeaters Victorious, Weigh Down Workshop, and Atkins.

What Kimkins offered that the others didn't was both low carb and low fat, meaning that I lost rapidly and stayed in ketosis, which it stated takes away cravings.

Also extremely important to me were both the online support and advice from other members and the numerous creative recipes available, as I like to cook and need variety to avoid getting bored and going off plan. I learned to personalize the plan to make a permanent change in my eating habits and without major cheats -- even for those holidays and special occasions.

I lost the first 100 pounds in less than 6 months. At that point I added exercise and now work out 3 times a week at Curves and walk 3 miles another 3 days. I've even started doing weight lifting DVDs. I have all kinds of energy and have so enjoyed doing the things I thought were forever gone from my life -- crossing my legs, kneeling, swimming, staying "up" for the entire day without napping -- the list goes on and on.

Food is losing its ugly hold on me in spite of the years it claimed. I have traded in that old "best" friend for joy in living!

Kimkins has truly become a way of life for me--not just a diet. I am now able to help others with the same help with which I was helped--what a privilege! I am so very thankful to Kimmer for coming up with this plan and, as I said before, "To God be the glory -- great things He has done!"
