High School Student Loses Almost

600 Pounds And Now Devotes His Life

To Helping Others Get Skinny!

Dear Friend,
If you have a weight problem, want you to take a good
look at the pictures on this page.
OK, did you do it? Did you take a good look at those
amazing pictures? What they show is a young man (me) whose
life was once a nightmare. Maybe you saw my story on CBS Live
or GOOD MORNING AMERICA. Or maybe you read about
me in the Detroit Free Press, The Oakland Daily Tribune or even

To Die:. the National Enquirer. Believe me, if you want to lose weight, I can tell you exactly
how to do it. • Without hunger! • Without low energy! • Without pills! • Without giving up good food! And, best of all, I can show you how to do it fast (very fast)
without spending hardly any money. Listen: My name is Larry
Coker and, not long ago, my weight was 750 pounds! I felt like a
freak and I wanted to die. Three times my bed broke because I
was so fat. I was only 18 but it seemed to me my life was over. Everyday I wore the same clothes to high school. I had only one
shirt (an extra-large Mickey Mouse T-shirt that looked like a tent)
and one huge pair of sweat pants with.. A Size 74 Inch Waist! I could only sleep on my back because if I slept on my side, my
enormous weight would cut off circulation to my arm leaving it white
and painful. Each morning my family had to
help me out of bed by pulling and yanking for
and bad about them. Then I counted up the good
five minutes. Then my younger brother put my
points of each diet and used them to make my
socks and shoes on for me. I couldn't bend over
own. Except 1 added a "certain

you may be a little uncomfortable with the reaction you get from other people. You know,
everybody wants to lose weight but, when it happens real quickly, it can be a little unnerving. Anyway, if you need a friend to talk to after you get started on my program, please feel
free to give me a call. Believe me, my friend, I've been there.
