Tyler Brandford had come home from work one evening after a hectic late-night shift, and all he wanted to do was veg out in front of the TV until he fell asleep.
While channel surfing to find something interesting to watch, Tyler came across the Phantom Infomercial channel. It was currently playing a weight-loss ad that Tyler did not care to remember the name of. A weight loss program that promised you would see results in six weeks or your money back.
"Tch, yeah, like I'm going to results in six months. I'd expect a full refund." Tyler muttered to himself. Then the man looked down at his overweight body and sighed. He was always chubby while growing up, and as he grew older, his chubby body just got plain fat. He wasn't happy being this fat, but everything he tried couldn't help him lose weight. Tyler then chuckled to himself, realizing the irony of thinking that while watching an infomercial.
Anyway, seeing people being able to lose weight like this normally would depress Tyler. However, there was a reason why he was still watching this infomercial. It was because of all the fit, strong men exercising and getting all sweaty. It was these infomercials that made Tyler realize his sexuality when he was younger. Even to this day, these infomercials always turned him on. Oh, now they were showing before and after now. Fuck, this was his favorite part. How all those fat guys turn into studs, oh to be like them.
Tyler was pawing at his junk as he watched the infomercial playout. All the men sweating from their workouts, the time-lapse of guys losing weight. He was so close, but alas, before he knew it, the infomercial was over, leaving him with blue balls.
Well, guess it was time for Tyler to hit the showers... finish up... and get to bed. While he was sleeping, he remained unaware that the infomercial magic was already starting to take hold.
By the end of week one was when he started to notice some changes. Tyler noticed that his clothes were fitting differently on him, and he had to go down a notch on his belt. The young man didn't pay much mind to this until week two where he definitely noticing that he was losing weight and people around him were noticing too. While Tyler was happy that he was finally losing weight, he was getting a bit concerned. He wasn't doing anything different after all, so he was afraid he was getting sick, but when he went to the doctors at week three, everything was fine. In fact, the doc said that he was the healthiest he had ever seen him.
This didn't ease Tyler's fears at all, as in Week 4, the ever-thinning man tried to gorge himself on food to no avail. The fat on his body was still melting off of him. By week 5, Tyler had to buy a new wardrobe as none of his old clothes. Physically he felt better than he ever had been. He was more energetic and sleeping better. He even got many compliments about how good he was looking now that he wasn't burdened with fat anymore. Under normal circumstances, he should be happy about this, but this was honestly terrifying him. What if it doesn't stop and he gets reduce to nothing but skin and bones and die?! Thankfully his fears were relieved when he got the letter from CYOP in the mail.
"Dear Mr. Brandford, on behalf of CYOP, we would formally like to apologize for the stress we caused you over the last 6 weeks. In the future, when we offer our six-week weight loss program to customers as a free trial, we will contact them immediately. Please, accept a free product of your choice from our catalog, and if you have any more questions or complaints, please contact us below."
Free trial? What was this letter talking about? Tyler asked himself, but then he recalled the infomercial that he watched six weeks ago. Holy shit! That was the reason he lost all his fat? Tyler couldn't believe it! Not only was he now thin for the first time in his life, but all the products that this company offered really worked?
Hmm, guess it was time for him to take up that offer for a free product then.
