How Sarah from Columbus, Ohio Finally Lost 18 Pounds — After 11 Years of Trying Everything
— Sarah M., 44, Columbus, Ohio — Nurse & Mother of Three
Sarah Mallory spent the better part of 11 years trying everything the diet industry had to offer. She'd done Weight Watchers twice, tried Keto for four months, bought a treadmill that now collects dust in her garage, and even paid $189 per month for a personal trainer — before the sessions quietly faded when her third child arrived in 2021.
By early 2024, Sarah weighed 197 pounds. She was tired — not the normal tired of a working nurse and mother of three, but a deep, bone-level exhaustion that made waking up feel like a chore. Her joints ached. She avoided mirrors. And every time she passed a bakery on her commute, she felt her willpower crumble before she even reached the counter.
"I wasn't lazy," she says, straightening in her kitchen chair. "I worked 12-hour shifts at Ohio Health Riverside Hospital. I cooked for three kids. I was moving all day. The weight just… wouldn't budge. I started to think something was broken inside me."
The turning point came at an unlikely place — a nurses' locker room in February 2024. Her colleague Diana had dropped what looked like 15 pounds since the new year. Sarah asked her secret. Diana pulled out her phone and said simply: "I ordered The Smoothie Diet by Drew. It's on ClickBank. I almost didn't try it. I'm so glad I did."
Sarah was skeptical. But Diana's results were standing right in front of her. That night, after the kids were in bed, Sarah decided to purchase The Smoothie Diet official program. The entire digital download cost her less than a single visit to her local smoothie bar.
"The first week was honestly a little hard," she admits. "Not because I was hungry — I was shocked by how full the smoothies kept me. It was just changing the habit. But by Day 5, something shifted. I had more energy at work. I stopped reaching for the vending machine at 3 PM."
By the end of Week 2, her nursing scrubs — which had been tight for two years — were suddenly loose at the waist. She stepped on the scale: she had lost 11 pounds in 14 days. "I actually got off the scale and got back on because I didn't believe it."
On Day 21, Sarah weighed in at 179 pounds. Eighteen pounds gone in three weeks. Her energy was higher than it had been in years. Her husband noticed. Her kids noticed. Her patients noticed when she walked into their rooms with a lightness she hadn't carried in years.
"What Drew Sgoutas built with The Smoothie Diet 21 day program isn't a gimmick," Sarah says today, now at 168 pounds and eight months into maintaining her results. "I tell every woman I work with: if you've been thinking about ordering The Smoothie Diet — stop thinking and just buy it. The 60-day guarantee means you have nothing to lose. Except the weight."
