LA Weight Loss Forum
Hi Everyone,
I've created this forum for a place for people to gather and discuss weight loss successes, tips, for people looking for inspiration, and to pretty much discuss anything concerning weight loss. This was started out of a lack of user friendly message boards for LA Weight Loss. There are no advertisements, no rules, we're a fun bunch of girls... come and join us! http://www.lawlforum.com Cheers! Lindsay Update: More plan info posted now at http://www.lawlforum.com/ Check it out! I had my first consultation last night and I've started the take off phase this morning. I posted the prices and info on the take off phase. Sign up and stick around, more details on the full program coming tomorrow after my 2nd consultation. Cheers! Lindsay |

I'd hardly call it spamming. I've merely created a forum where I can
document my WL journey and also to have a place where people on or interested in the program can discuss it. I have a couple of friends who are members and are doing this on their own and they're going to be printing out all the details I post so they can do it on their own. I'm not trying to recruit anyone, I JUST started the program. There are no ads, there are no links to other sites, there are no rules. Just a place to document and for people to talk about it. That's all. Cheers, Lindsay |

Hi Lindsay,
I congratulate you on your efforts to lose weight and applaud you for picking a plan that you hopefully can stick to. My wife does LA Weight Loss and likes it a lot, except she gets bored with the boneless skinless chicken in all it's varieties. What puzzles me is this: LA Weight Loss's program is only mildly low carb, and that's being kind of generous. The two daily servings of starch, the multiple servings of high glycemic fruit, and othe things really keep this from being anything like a traditional low carb approach (Atkins' Diet Rev or Protein Power), or even a relaxed one like South Beach. It's really more like the Zone, which can be very loosely construed as being carb controlled (30 or 40% carb is still a lot less than a traditional low fat diet afterall). So, my question to you is, why fish for people for your site in waters that are bare of LA Weight Loss practicioners? There have been a few questions about the program, since they are pretty secretive about what you actually eat on it until you sign up, but I don't think there is anyone in ASDLowCarb who is doing the program. My wife likes the program, but she finds the marketing approach to be very high pressure to buy their bars and stuff. We did a little comparison of the bars they sell with bars you can get on the open market, nutrition composition and price. We found that you can buy bars that are pretty much the same thing (and high carb at that) one at a time and save a little money over what they charge for a box of their "special bars." If you buy in bulk, you can save a lot. If you get over the internet, even more. So, you can expect people to be a little skeptical, largely due to the high pressure sales tactics. There is a reason why they will refund half your fee if you show up for every "consultation". Because the odds are, you will buy extremely high margin items that more than make the difference up. Good luck with the diet. My wife, as I said, likes it and does very well with it. She kept all her material from when she was a paying customer, so she can now do it without them, which she finds to make it easier, not harder. But my wife is a superstar and the most organized/disciplined person I have ever met. -Hollywood lonsie wrote: I'd hardly call it spamming.

Hi, just joined LA today and although the main complaint is cost I do feel
the support or the regular 3x a week is the way to go. How are you doing on the program. Hopeful lonsie wrote: I'd hardly call it spamming.

Hi Hopeful,
Congrats on starting your diet. It is not even remotely Low Carb, by any stretch of the imagination, so I wonder what you are doing here. I've already asked lonsie, and she didn't reply. I fully support you in the changes you are trying to make, but unless you are low carb, I have nothing specifically useful for you, and it is likely that no one else on this group does either. -Hollywood, who wonders why people wander.
