DONNA MANES
Last January Donna joined Venus de Milo
because she had not found a satisfactory
way to control her weight For the past
ten years her weight has varied front
185 lbs to 180 lbs "I was almost
like a yo yo — up and down -
but my crash diet efforts were
another calamity," Donna
said
AFTER
Donna was too fat to enjoy any
physical activity, so she did |ust as
little as possible
Naturally she hated to have her picture
taken — but her daugther snapped a
picture of her and she had to realize
just how her family saw her She
looked miserable obese, lust like a fat
blob— at that time decided she was
going to lose weight permanently
"Venus has changed my whole life
around." Donna said “• not only lost
the fat that made me look so
dreadful— I enjoy a new self
confidence. I have a new spirit and
love of life It's now so much easier to
see the beauty and wonder around me
Thank you. Venus
