The Problem with Diets…is that Diets are the Problem.So, instead of offering you another problem we came up with a

solution: The Silhouette Solution.™

02 Silhouette Solution™

here’s an epidemic of excess

weight and obesity in this

country and it costs us all

billions every year. What’s worse—we

pay for it twice—once by buying the

food that causes the weight gain, and

again by paying to treat the diseases

being overweight causes—to say

nothing of the lack of confidence, low

energy, restriction of activity and so

many other non-medical challenges

that can come with even a small

amount of extra weight.

• Diabetes

• Heart disease

• Hypertension

• Cancer

• Arthritis

• Lack of Confidence

• Low Energy

• Depression

So why am I overweight?

Well the first and most important

thing is that it’s not all your fault!

Yes, you made the decision to eat

what you eat, and that’s what got

you the extra weight, but the real

culprits are the food and advertising

companies who are in it for profit

—and they just don’t care what

happens to you.

They spend BILLIONS every

year convincing, cajoling, and

manipulating you into making all

the wrong decisions for your health.

What’s worse, they design foods

that are not compatible with human

metabolism —the way your body

is meant to work—and that are

addictive, make you repeatedly

hungry and cause you to gain weight.

The food companies love overweight

people because people who are

overweight eat much more than

those who aren’t—and that’s good

for their bottom lines.

So if you’re using commercially

prepared foods, you are caught in

a vicious cycle of their making—and

anyone who is locked into it will

inevitably get heavier. We’ll help you

fight back and break the pattern.

The Diet Problem

Have you ever been on a diet? Most

people have. And they’ve usually

tried many. Sometimes they drop

some weight, most often they gain

it all back and more. Often they

give up before they even really get

going. There are lots of reasons why

diets can be tough to follow and why

people will often resist doing what

they know they need to. We call it

the “I don’t LIKE dieting” problem.

So that’s why we had to come

up with a solution—Silhouette

Solution™. Our mission was to

design a program so simple it could

go on the back of a box—a program

that would turn everyone’s diet

problems into a simple solution.

The Diet Blues

“It was so boring.”

“It was too expensive.”

“They didn’t show me how to maintain my weight loss.”

“It was difficult to plan.”

“I had to drink shakes all the time.”

“All they let me eat was cookies.”

“The food was bland and tasteless.”

“I don’t have time to prepare meals.”

“As soon as I went off the diet I gained all my weight back.”

“I wasn’t able to eat out at all.”

The Story About the Silhouette Solution

“I created the Silhouette Solution

program after I succeeded in beating

my own weight problem. A few

years ago, I experienced a significant

weight gain that I couldn’t seem to

shift. That’s when I realized it didn’t

matter how much I knew, what

mattered was to figure out what

worked. I like to EAT, and so do most

people, which is why they fail

on the majority of diets. So

I studied what would work

best, applied it to my own

situation.”

“My friend Caroline saw me

getting thinner and said,

“Hey, I want to do what you’re

doing!” Once again, her results

speak for themselves.

“I based the Silhouette

Solution on work that’s been

extensively reviewed by the National

Institutes for Health, the Institute

of Medicine, and others. With this

program, you eat LOTS, you won’t

be hungry—and the extra fat will just

fall away—with or without exercise

(though exercise is always good)!

What’s more—once you’ve dropped

your initial weight, we transition you

to a program pioneered by Harvard’s

top weight management doctor, Dr.

George Blackburn, so you can learn

to keep the weight off once you’ve

achieved your goals—and most

importantly, stop your body from

trying to return to its prior weight.“

What’s Your Current Silhouette?

Scientists specializing in weight issues

have been using silhouette figures

like the ones below for decades.

They’re a really easy way of telling

you where you’re at, weight-wise.

Which silhouette most closely represents the weight you are now?

And now, which silhouette most

closely resembles who you really are?

Or where you intend to be?

Remember, it’s not just about looks,

as there are many other huge

benefits that come from“downsizing.”

Dropping as little as 10% of your

body weight can reduce disease

risk significantly. Many people

report better blood sugar control,

lower cholesterol, lower blood

pressure, less joint pain, improved

energy, better self-image, greater

confidence, …and in every case, a

smile on their face!

06 Silhouette Solution™

Here are the 6 reasons why you’ll LOVE the Silhouette Solution:

We designed the Silhouette Solution to make it

possible for anyone to implement, any time.

Just enjoy one of our calibrated

Silhouette Staples every 2-3 hours

and have one Silhouette-Approved

meal daily. That’s it! There’s no trying

to figure things out, no complex

menu planning. Because all of our

foods are carefully calibrated the

same, you can choose whichever

you want, whenever you want.

People are busy, and that’s when it’s

easiest for them to “get into trouble”

with their food. Our Silhouette Staples

are handy, light, easy to make, easy

to carry—ready when you are. Some

are ready to eat; for others you just

add water.

“Diet” foods are often the subject

of ridicule when it comes to flavor.

It’s much easier to stay on an eating

program when delicious flavors make

eating a joy. Designed to taste just like

“real food,” our Silhouette Staples

will help you through the day and won’t

leave you craving something else.

Boredom is dangerous when people

are trying to lose weight. It’s often

the beginning of failure. That’s why

we have lots of choices. We keep

it interesting. Use our Silhouette

Staples on their own or with one

of our many recipes found at

www.silhouettesolutions.com. You

can get creative too, and come up

with your own.

It’s estimated that many Americans

spend $34 a day on food, beverages,

snacks, and candies. Not only is our

solution way cheaper than that, you’ll

naturally begin eating less as your

weight drops, saving more in the

long run. And best of all, this isn’t an

additional expense for you, it’s just

you choosing foods that will

help you rather than foods that won’t.

Our mission is to help you take the

fat off and keep it off! That’s why

the program is designed the way it

is. You’ll be satisfied, you won’t be

hungry and your metabolism will

start working better. You might even

have some healthy surprises along

the way, as it’s not unusual for other

troubles to go away as you regain

your shape!
