Examples

“I got back to my practice in San Francisco, two months went by, when a package from Dr. Toledo arrived with photos of the results. Looking at these before-and-afters of people who we’d seen directly was like one of those amazing moments where time seems to stop and you realize that something momentous has happened and that your life will never be the same again.”
“As for those before-and-afters . . . we wanted them to be real pictures of real guys, just like you. We wanted to show what was achievable for a regular guy in a short 9 weeks. We wanted to give you a hint at how much better the results could be for you personally if you stick with the program longer.”
“But instead I head to where Betty sits in front of the TV, engrossed in an infomercial for acne medication. She smiles at me when I sit down. “Look at those before-and-afters! Isn’t that amazing?””
