Tired of yo-yo diets? Of losing weight,<\/p>\n

then regaining it right back? Tired of counting calories,<\/p>\n

eating bland meals received in the mail,<\/p>\n

attending meetings to learn you aren’t losing<\/p>\n

weight as fast as others?<\/p>\n

Our program is called Neutralize Appetite Guide<\/p>\n

and Never Again Gain or simply NAG & NAG.<\/p>\n

This program relieves you of tiresome<\/p>\n

responsibility and restrain by personifying<\/p>\n

your guilty conscience.<\/p>\n

Dependent on the plan chosen, a scolding specialist<\/p>\n

will text or call at regular mealtimes and bedtime,<\/p>\n

criticize what you ate and what you might eat<\/p>\n

and warn of the evils of bedtime snacking.<\/p>\n

Using blends of humiliation and guilt<\/p>\n

our agents will motivate you to eat less<\/p>\n

and avoid between-meal snacks.<\/p>\n

For only a modest monthly payment<\/p>\n

we guarantee misery.<\/p>\n

To initiate NAG & NAG and change your life,<\/p>\n

call the toll-free number on the screen.<\/p>\n
