This center for weight loss, is a big
rip-off! Some places do not have a center
like this. My advice to anyone ever
thinking about doing this diet.....Don't
waste your time or...Money! They are very
slimy people who only care about your
money, my guess is that they are on
commission. Their goal, is get your
money, while your goal is to lose weight.
Many of us know that when we have wanted
to lose weight, we can become very
vulnerable, and this is how they get you
to fall into their trap.
If anyone has had any problems with this
type of program, please let me know. I am
in the middle of investigating the "good
faith in business" act they have going, or
I should say, that they don't have going!

So, no one here has been? Has anyone
heard anything from anyone they know about
this place?

I went to la weight loss in the spring of
2002 and you are absolutely right they are
only interested in selling you their
products that do not work. And when
those products you purchased did not work
they sell you another product...They are
scam artist and have regretted spending
my money and my time on such a company.

Well, my fiance' who is about ready to go
into law school, is helping me out with
this one! The manager at the place I went
was so incredibly rude! I left there so
irrated, and angry. My story, is that I
went in the beginning of october, and then
on day six of the diet, I realized it
wasn't for me, so I went back a day
earlier than my second appointment, and
told them, that I couldn't change my
lifestyle to meet their "structured"
plans. The manager was yelling at me, and
slipped in that the program was
"non-refundable". No where on the
contract that I signed, did it say
anything about the service being
"non-refundable!" in fact, what it did
say, was that the initial set up fee of
$169.00 was "non-refundable." right there,
that would assume that all but $169.00
would be refundable. Each time I
mentioned that to her, she would raise her
voice, and dodge the questions I asked!
They also have no signs up that say their
services are "non-refundable." it has been
a horrible experince, and I do discourage
anyone from going! Right now, my refund
is "hopefully" underway. The funny thing
is, is that they have a "refund form" you
can fill out, which is what I did, and
they told me I should get my refund in
about 3 weeks.
On a happier note, I bought a cookbook,
that measures and counts calories, and in
a month, I have lost a total of 21 pounds!

This place is the biggest scam going!
:evil: I just got my $400 refund plus
$89 for supplements. I knew after my 2nd
visit it was not for me. It is so funny
how they introduce the supplements to you
in stages after you sign the contract.
The people that work there act as
nutritionists but are only past customers
who lost weight on the program.
Basically they know as much as me and you!
I could not believe how much they wanted
to charge my mother who has a lot more
weight to lose than I do. I want to lose
30 and she wants to lose about 75 lbs.
Warning to anyone considering - save your
money!!!!
