Don't you just hate that? All those ads and commercials for diets or excercise equipment showing these amazing transformations, then the fine print at the bottom of the page/screen shows, "Results Not Typical".

Show me the typical results. I'm a typical person. :rant:

They say that because they typically don't work.

I like those commercials showing her as she's losing weight. I just hope she makes it all the way. I do get tired of watching them over and over, though.


Now, don't get me started on Jared and Subway. I HATE those commercials and I'm sick of seeing his face.

I hate the "results not typical" crap! Show me how it REALLY works. Of course, if they did that, it probably wouldn't sell.

I think they high paid lawyers make them write that so that some dumbass who can't follow a plan doesn't sue them. HTH.

Typical results include exercise equiptment being burried in storage, used as clothes hangers, etc. Dietary supliments typically end up on the shelf, unused, or even unopened until they rot and get thrown out. Typically, people don't stick with that stuff.

I would love to see "typical results with consistant use"!
