The HCG Story... The story of HCG began in the Fifties when, after having done research on weight loss for 40 years and research on HCG specifically for twenty years, Dr. Simeons reported that patients taking small amounts of HCG, in conjunction Kathryn Azhar, Owner with a very low calorie and her staff diet, could lose weight safely and quickly without exercise, muscle loss or hunger. But all HCG is not created equal. The SuperVision Weight Loss program starts with pharmaceutical HCG. Unfortunately, there has been a lot of confusion created by products being sold without guidance that call themselves “HCG” but do not contain any in their ingredient list. HCG is one of 67 hormones naturally produced in the human body, so if a product states that it is hormone free, it's not HCG.

Cindy's Story
For years, I've had trouble losing the excess weight that I put on. I've tried several plans and fad diets, only to put the weight back on. I came to Super Vision Weight Loss when my doctor told me that I was pre-diabetic. I found the program easy to follow. i was glad to have the support of the staff through the entire transition. I am so happy with my results and my new lease on life.
Gary's Story
My doctor was on my case about my blood pressure, and I know that the extra weight I was carrying wasn’t helping that situation. My knees hurt and I just wanted to feel better. I gave Super Vision Weight Loss a chance to help me get the weight off. They were really great!! I lost 38 lbs. in 31 days! My girlfriend is thrilled. I travel for a living and I was able to stay true to the diet protocol even on the road. I’m so glad I did this diet with Super Vision Weight Loss. I feel YEARS younger and I know I’ll never have that belly again.
HCG does not produce weight loss by itself. However, in concert with a very specific balanced diet, and our help in avoiding unexpected environmental or behavioral deviations, HCG will allow the body to naturally pull the nutrients and calories needed from stored fat reserves into the blood stream at the rate of 1500 to 4000 calories per day. We are sure that those who follow our protocol WILL lose 20-30 pounds in 40 days. These fantastic results ARE typical with our full service packages. SuperVision Weight Loss program is not your run of the mill “eat less and exercise more” diet for a slow loss of 1 to 2 pounds a week that seems to take the rest of your life. Our protocol tricks Mother Nature a little, maybe, however only natural processes are at work. Per Dr. Simeons, it is safe and so very effective.

Months after the delivery of her big bundle of joy, Laura continued to have pain when sitting and during intercourse. Things were not the same. Frustrated by the results of her outcome, she looked for answers on the internet where she found Dr. Brillhart’s web site. She discovered and consulted with the Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation Institute of Indianapolis. Dr. Brillhart’s surgical option uses a laser to bloodlessly tear down the scarred layers and reassembles them correctly. Laura opted for this procedure and just days later things had already significantly improved and that nagging pain was gone. Erin loved to ride her bicycle but she was tired of the pinch that would suddenly come from sitting the wrong way on her bike seat. Besides that, her favorite swimsuit bottom never fit or looked quite right. She consulted Dr. Brillhart at LVRI of Indianapolis and scheduled a laser labial reduction. Soon she was back on her bike and riding without the pinch. After four babies, Melissa knew sexual relations were just not the same. She 8
couldn’t feel anything anymore and was afraid her husband might be experiencing the same. The birth canal was no longer holding him as snugly as it did before her first baby. James Brillhart, MD Leaking urine when laughing with friends or exercising at the gym was getting old fast. Dr. Brillhart’s Laser Vaginal Rejuvenation (LVR) surgery brought her hope. Melissa was thrilled with her results after surgery. Mini pads are now a thing of the past and she and her husband are enjoying that “hold me tight” feeling they both missed. Call 317.621.2400 to schedule your consultation. For more information, visit our websites at lvrii.com and brillhartgyn.com.

Be Authentic Do you have difficulty feeling genuine around people? Do you ignore your feelings, fears and insecurities and project an image that prevents people from knowing the real you? Are you the type of person who Carol Juergensen Sheets hides your vulnerabilities in an attempt to hide your pain? If this sounds like you, then it is likely that you don’t talk, trust, or feel in your relationships with others. Human beings basically have the same needs. However, some are born needing more while others are born needing less. It is your upbringing and genetics that helps you to determine the intensity for which you need attention, affection, love and nurturance from others. If you grew up taking care of others it is likely that your basic needs were not met. As you grew older, you might have felt uncomfortable when others tried to take care of you. More than likely, you kept your feelings hidden and were not even aware that they were there. (Suppressing your feelings interfered with your ability to trust other people.) Children with unmet needs learn how to suppress them. This also insulates them from the pain of not having those needs met. Children develop a reaction formation. Inside they are needy but outside they may appear confident, capable, and self-assured. They learn self-sufficiency to avoid needing others. For example, most people have the need to be touched. Some require more affection than others. If they didn't get enough affection as a child they may deny the need and develop the preference not to be touched. People are unable to physically get close to them. It appears that they don't want the emotional connection that accompanies affection; when in reality; the need is buried deep inside of them. People who don't express their needs typically
don’t talk, trust, or feel. They have difficulty being true to their selves. They don’t trust that they can share with others their true thoughts or feelings. As a result, they are unable to identify what their genuine needs are. They may begin to medicate their unconscious feelings with drugs, alcohol, work, or other compulsions. Some people may overcompensate by overworking. Their self-esteem may be based solely on achievements and accomplishments because they have no sense of their own authenticity. In many cases, children whom have been abused or lived in alcoholic families have difficulty with talking, feeling, and trusting. If you struggle with these issues you will find the following suggestions helpful. Work on sharing your thoughts • Find someone with whom you can share your innermost feelings. • Attend a group that will support your recovery. • Pick a counselor who will help you develop the trust you need to feel safe. Assess your primary feelings daily • Use a journal to identify your feelings for each day. Choose one of the following feelings: happiness, sadness, anger, loneliness and fear to assist you in how you feel on a daily basis. Rating your day will give you practice in feeling identification. Your feelings can guide your decisions. Find people who are safe and that you can trust • Begin to take tiny risks that address your vulnerabilities. • Find people who will validate you and help you to work through your feelings. • Believe that your life will be better when you begin to face your fears and get real about who you are--feelings, insecurities and all. Be true to yourself and resolve to discover the real you. It takes courage to share your vulnerabilities. Learning to get your needs met is worth the risk.

February 2018 January 30 – February 4 Beautiful – The Carol King Musical at
Clowes Memorial Hall of Butler University. Long before she was Carole King, charttopping music legend, she was Carol Klein, Brooklyn girl with passion and chutzpah. She fought her way into the record business as a teenager and, by the time she reached her twenties, had the husband of her dreams and a flourishing career writing hits for the biggest acts in rock ‘n’ roll. But it wasn’t until her personal life began to crack that she finally managed to find her true voice. Beautiful: The Carole King Musical tells the inspiring true story of King’s remarkable rise to stardom, from being part of a hit songwriting team with her husband Gerry Goffin, to her relationship with fellow writers and best friends Cynthia Weil and Barry Mann, to becoming one of the most successful solo acts in popular music history. Along the way, she made more than beautiful music, she wrote the soundtrack to a generation.
