• Pure Vitamin Club

YORK

• York is his middle name
• His first name is Lawrence and his dad is Larry, so he has always been referred to by his middle name
• He is more a reader and a tweeter
• Looking for a lifestyle that didn't have to do with looking ingredients up in a book or calorie counting
  • He liked the simplicity of NSNG
• He is 11 days in and his energy and sleep has improved greatly
  • He noticed a huge change in his palette too, and has stopped smoking
    • Fortunately, smoking culture has changed and people smoke significantly less or less in public now
• From the South

LAP-BAND FAILURE

• York's heaviest weight was 345
  • Right now he is 315
• This is the first time in his life that he has not calorie counted or drank shakes, etc.
• Many of Vinnie's callers have had this surgery
• Sure, you can't eat because your stomach is significantly smaller, but then you aren't getting nutrients
  • Other problems include reflux issues and much more
• York had his filled up with so much fluid that he woke up in the middle of the night gasping for air
  • Now he doesn't have fluid, but it's still hard sometimes to digest things and get them through
• It also restricts what type of food you can eat and when you can eat, which if you decide to eat like NSNG, can be very difficult 
• He feels very liberated doing NSNG now
  • He is going to try to get on a food preparation schedule because when one goes to restaurants there are always hidden and naughty ingredients
    • That being said, NSNG is SO worth it and York loves it
