There are many variations
Of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don’t look even slightly believable.
If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn’t anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet.
It is a long established fact
That a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English.
Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for ‘lorem ipsum’ will uncover many web sites still in their infancy.
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text
Of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged.
It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
Success Story
I have been struggling with weight loss for almost all my teenage into adult life. I weighed 210 lbs at 16 years old and lost weight until I was about 155 lbs at the same age. I then re-gained weight until I was about 300 lbs at the age of 23 years old. It’s been a ride, let me tell you! At age 25 I started working out a lot with no diet and went back down to 241 lbs. Since then, life hit with work, marriage and children. I have been bouncing between 241lbs to 262 lbs for quite some time until I found, in 2014, a low carb diet. While I went from 262lbs to 227lbs, anytime I came off the diet for a little bit, I would re-gain a good amount of the weight. So, I have been with that for a while and then good old COVID came. I went from about 255 lbs to 286 lbs as of March, 18th, 2021. I almost came back to my full weight when I was 23 years old. It’s been a crazy time and I have had lots of ups and downs with weight gain/loss. As with most people, you think of it all the time and that in itself does not promote good health!
I am writing today, on June 21, 2021, at 226 lbs, due to Dr. Khan, Hadeel and the amazing team at Mavis Medix. Weight loss is a journey and with any journey, you need help. I have never gone on a vacation without the assistance of someone. You need pilots, flight attendants or hotel personnel to enjoy a great vacation. So, with any great journey, you need assistance. Mavis Medix is there to help! From the weekly consults, to the planning and then to the products you use to help with weight loss, Dr. Khan and the Mavis Medix team are there to assist. If you have been struggle like I have been, then you need them, period. This is not just weight loss for now, this is the kind of weight loss for life. They don’t do everything for you as you have to make good decisions as well but the path they lay out is filled with success!
I still have three months to go and I can’t wait to see what my results are at the end of this journey!
