Callanetics' subtitled claim--"10 years younger in 10 hours"--strikes many specialists in the field as a bit too much of a miracle. "Fat loss is a very long-term process," says Chicago Physiologist George Lesnes. St. Louis Chiropractor R.

Willard D. McNown, a semiretired chiropractor, moved away from the Ridgemark Country Club last year. About 2 in. He did the same the year before. First the living room and an upstairs bedroom moved, then the library and kitchen. The garage, or at least one side of it, followed a little later. Walls cracked, ceilings split and doors jammed. Before long, scientists and sightseers were arriving by the busload...
