LA Weight Loss

Lose weight and look great like everyone in LA


BACKGROUND

With more than 400 locations and success stories from across the world, LA Weight Loss has helped people battling the bulge lose the weight, not the lifestyle. This tagline for LA Weight Loss attracts people across the globe to a program that teaches how to effectively lose weight- not just give you the answers. It's not another trendy diet of the moment. Since 1994, the LA Weight Loss centers have provided clients with individualized counseling, by nutrition experts or successful clients, that prepare them for leading healthier lives. Encouragement, smart eating and exercise all contribute to the success of LA Weight Loss clients. You'll learn to eat appropriate portions, as well as enjoy a diet rich in nutrients- a balanced approach that does not focus exclusively on one group of food or completely remove another.

A complete history of each client's health is taken by counselors. This offers an extra level of attentiveness so that the program is safe and effective. Clients then visit the center to participate in individual counseling meetings. LA Weight Loss lasts only 12-months divided by three phases: Weight Loss, Stabilize, Maintenance.

DIET and NUTRITION

LA Weight Loss has a non-diet approach. They promote a healthy weight loss program, that teaches you how to live a healthy and balanced life- not just kill a few pounds for the moment. You won't have to seriously restrict one group of food, like a low-carb or no-fat diet; instead, you'll learn how to enjoy all things in moderation assuring your body receives all the nutrients it needs. In addition to teaching how to make and enjoy delicious, healthful meals at home, LA Weight Loss recognizes that it's not always convenient to do so. LA provides guidance to help you dine at a restaurant, without neglecting your plan.

LA Weight Loss also has a healthy cookbook available at most centers. Inside you'll find chocolate truffles, vegetable ziti bake and their famous philly cheesesteak.

EXERCISE

As part of the LA Weight Loss program, you'll be encouraged to get up and move. Any weight loss program worth its salt is going to make this recommendation- so don't think you're getting out of it. LA states that even a mild exercise regimen will yield results. Your exercise plan will be created by your counselor, specific to your needs, experience and limitations.

CONCLUSION

Provided there is a center in your area, LA Weight Loss is an ideal weight loss program. By offering individualized counseling, you're able to follow a plan created specific to your unique needs. If you're looking for a one size fits all program- then look elsewhere. With a long established brand and reputation and genuine testimonials on the site, you'll feel right at home at LA Weight Loss. Most importantly, you'll be able to lose weight and find a balanced, healthy lifestyle.

This was the most despiteful scam I have ever been a victim of. First, they told me they were moving to the "other" center, and then they totally dissapeared without leaving a number to call to claim the BOXES of lites that I had previously bought!! I can't believe how good they are to make you trust you and then do this!! If somebody knows what I can do to get my money back, please let me know!!! (the system was working for me, which hurts me the most, I believed in them, you know?). I'll settle for the bars too, as long as I don't feel like I was robbed. posted May 11th, 2009 11:39 am

I also went lost a lot of weight on the program, but when the center closed I was back to my old ways of eating. I was left with so much bars that I haven't even began to think about eating them. The support is really necessary and I'm very sorry that LA Weight Loss didn't stay in my area. posted May 3rd, 2009 5:17 pm

I lost the weight, 24 lbs in about 14 weeks. The program was too expensive. After you lose the weight, you must stay on the program to maintain. I have gained back the 24 lbs, plus about 5 more. Can't afford another diet program. posted Apr 29th, 2009 9:35 pm

I joined LA weight loss in Ottawa and lost over 90 lbs, it was easy to follow, inexpensive and the support of the staff was invaluable, I developed a wonderful relationship with them, and was mad when they lost their franchise posted Apr 15th, 2009 6:32 pm

Dear Monica King:

I'd be interested in that information about alternatives to LA Weight Loss products. My weight loss center has closed as well and I'm trying to continue the weight loss program I started with LA Weight Loss on my own.

I lost 20 pounds on LA Weightloss, and have moved to a city where the center has closed. I remember the basics of the plan, but have misplaced the dining out guide and all other literature. Any suggestions as to bars that can be found at the grocery store? posted Apr 5th, 2009 8:35 pm

Loved the straightforward diet plan, which is not terribly different than the other sensible weight loss program, Weight Watchers. I like that I could drop in and meet for a few minutes, not tied to a specific time for a full hour or more. My only problem was the turnover at the center - the manager couldn't keep counselors there. So I just ignored that and stuck to it and got through it. posted Apr 4th, 2009 5:29 pm

I've tried every weight loss plan basically known to man! LA is the only one that has actually worked for me. I'm a "sweets-aholic". I've done the plan two times and results are fantastic. Actually doing it again! You won't be disappointed! posted Apr 3rd, 2009 10:53 pm
