I have been on a “diet” most of my life and am always shocked at how many different approaches there are to achieving a slim profile. I think my slimmest profile was probably at birth because the search for a foolproof diet has never ended.
Well imagine my delight when looking through a box of old memories I stumbled upon forgotten words of wisdom from my long-departed mother. The yellowed crackly piece of paper inspired my imagination. I had found a long lost treasure on how to lose weight.
Talk about excited!
I was so thrilled I immediately began retyping the whole thing – for you, my friends, who may also be in search of a diet with a guarantee. And I graciously accept your words of gratitude (in advance) for sharing this with you now.

She is long gone to her better place, but comes back to me in strange and wonderful ways.
