When Cherie Grieve submitted her ‘after’ pictures at the end of the 180-Day Get Slim Challenge, her new haircut and crimson hair color weren’t the only shocker. The 31-year-old revealed a stunning new figure—37 pounds lighter and down three dress sizes—and pocketed $7,500 as the second place winner!

Not knowing that she was a Challenge winner, Cherie was busy planning a surprise party for her husband to celebrate his weight loss success with Bios Life Slim. She was shocked when, after presenting her husband with a check, Unicity’s Senior Vice President, D. Clive Winn turned and presented her with a check also.

"I feel privileged and thankful that I was able to lose so much weight. I’m excited that my body is coming back to what it was before I had babies. I used to be shy and not very outgoing but now I love talking with people about Slim and telling them about all the benefits. Slim is amazing."

“The year my parents decided to separate was the first time I started to agonize over my weight. I now realize how food became a comfort to me through my family trials and it seemed to be the only thing that could soothe the pain. I began to gain weight pound by pound and inch by inch. Within a year, I had gained 30 pounds.”

Cherie got married and had four children, which contributed to more unwanted pounds. “I found that I had gained an average of 30 to 40 pounds during each pregnancy, and the extra weight seemed impossible to get rid of. I tried calorie counting, diet programs, watching what I ate— I tried them all and it seemed that I’d lose a few pounds, but then I would hit a plateau shortly thereafter and it became extremely frustrating.”

Since she’s been drinking Slim, Cherie not only is more confident but she has plenty of energy to play with her children and to manage her daycare. “I need all the extra energy I can get to play with my four children, and with the help of Slim, I feel that I can keep up with my kids and daycare kids. Emotionally, I’m more confident and happy. Slim has touched every area of my life. I feel alive again!”

She went from a size 20 to a size 14 and Cherie is proud of her accomplishment. “I’m now able to shop for clothes at any store and I can always find clothes in my size. Getting dressed up is fun again. I feel great—happy and excited to go out with my husband on dates. It has rejuvenated my marriage causing us to fall in love with each other all over again.”

Cherie shares some of the benefits of drinking Slim. “There are so many benefits about Slim. The best one is that I actually lost more than five pounds. I have more energy, I’m more confident and I really have a new drive for life. Also, I can walk up the stairs without having to stop to use my asthma inhaler. It’s so nice to have my lungs working so much better.”
