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.

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

If insult is not enough, let's add some injury. This company now reports that they have LA Lites to your door, but won't honor their contracts with the current customers they have ripped off. Stay away. Don't put yourself in the sucker hold that so many have already gone down with this company. posted Mar 30th, 2009 3:39 pm

This message is for Monica. I would love if you could send me anything you have. My husband lost 85 pounds on LA weightloss 5 years ago. He gained almost all of it back. Not because the plan did not work, but because we did not take seriously the life changes that needed to be made. He is now overweight, again, stressed and would really like to try the diet again because he knows that it works. We think we remember pretty much of how the diet works, but it would be great if we had some resource material. We can't find any of his old cards. Anything you can send would really be appreciated. Thank you. posted Mar 28th, 2009 6:56 pm

Hi Monica, I would sincerely appreciate if you would email me whatever you have in regards to LAWL. I lost 40 lbs with the program and kept it off for 3 years...however this past year has been quite the struggle - I wonder if going back on the plan would be beneficial? Whatever you could do would be immensely appreciated. Thanks so much - my email is br />

Monica I too lost weight on LA Weightloss. I didn't buy into their "add-ons" but used substitutes. Unfortunately, I lost my program, jump start, books, everything. If you can email the program I would really appreciate it: posted Mar 19th, 2009 4:06 pm
