"64 Pounds Down and
my Ex-Husband Could Not Stop Staring at Me"
Looking in the three-way mirror, I truly saw myself, and the reflection was shocking. I could not believe how overweight, tired, and out of shape I looked.
Every year since my divorce, and honestly, ever since I first had my son, I had been steadily gaining weight. I had gradually moved up five or six dress sizes and no longer resembled the woman I used to be. Now, I was shopping for a dress for my son's wedding and I was in a panic.
With the wedding just ten weeks away, the pressure was on. Everyone would be there—all of my family, my friends, and even my ex-husband, my son’s father, whom I hadn’t seen since he left me over four years ago. The thought of seeing him, especially since I’d heard he was bringing his attractive, younger girlfriend, overwhelmed me. I sat down on the chair and cried, feeling completely defeated
In that moment, I knew something had to change, and it had to happen quickly. I returned home with renewed determination: I would be fit and fabulous for the wedding. I was willing to try anything.
I worked so hard and I tried every method imaginable: severely cutting calories, eliminating entire food groups, sticking to strict portion control, doing intense aerobic workouts, practicing high-intensity interval training, and spending hours walking. Despite all my efforts, I was not losing anything but my dignity. Nothing was working.
My self esteem was shot. I was desperate for a solution.
That weekend, I surrendered to the idea of being too big and went to the mall to find a dress that would hide my body. While in the dressing room, I overheard a familiar voice laughing and chatting nearby. I stepped in front of the 3-way mirror to see one of my oversized tent dresses and saw Anna, who had lived next door before my divorce. I hadn’t seen her in years.
Anna looked incredible—light, youthful, fit, and vibrant. She was trying on slinky, clingy dresses and looked fantastic in them. I tried to hide, but she spotted me and hurried over. Her expression revealed her surprise at my appearance. She took my hand and said, “Let’s go have lunch, dear! I know just what will help.”
Well That Lunch Changed Everything!
After we sat down, I broke down and cried, sharing how much I wanted and needed to get “back in the game.” Anna smiled and leaned in, telling me about a simple morning ritual called the Purple Peel Exploit. It only took six seconds each morning with a glass of water, and the results were amazing. She explained how it had helped her regain her fit, healthy self and boundless energy. Anna was so enthusiastic that I could barely keep up with her explanation. She gave me a link and recommended I watch the video online to get all the details.
I watched the video that evening and was impressed by its professionalism and logic. I was eager to give it a try. Once I started, I felt a boost in energy. As days passed, my sweatpants became looser, and after a couple of weeks, I noticed my weight dropping. I couldn’t believe it. it was working for me, too.
I called Anna as the wedding date got close. “I’m so upset,” I said. “I’ve got a whole new problem now.”
Anna immediately wanted to know what was wrong. “That huge blue tent I bought for the wedding is far too big now!”
We both laughed and met at the mall the next day, trying on dress after dress, each looking better than the last. I returned the tent dress and purchased a slinky, form-fitting midnight blue gown that made me feel wonderful.
The wedding was beautiful, filled with laughter, dancing, and celebration. I received compliments from many old friends, and even my ex-husband hugged me, saying he’d never seen me look better. I left the wedding feeling grateful for Anna and the Purple Peel Exploit. It helped me regain my confidence and health. I am down a total of 64 pounds and I plan to lose a few more. Now, I can’t wait to see the wedding pictures.
Who would have known it could be this easy?
