2 weeks ago, I signed up with LA/Pure Weight Loss. This, is the first time that I have lost weight in YEARS. I have tried everything... Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, Slim Fast, personal trainers, pills, plans, I even had liposuction. It's been a non-stop battle for me -- and, on top of it all, I have a thyroid disease, so, that only makes things HARDER. Then a co-worker suggested I try LA. So, I sucked it up, and gave it a chance. It all cost a small fortune, but, it's been working!!! And, I was thrilled... and then, the bad news hit. When I called the center today, to ask a question about something, I was informed that all the LA/Pure centers, would be closing, immediately, that my counselor's last day was that day, and that the shop would be cutting hours until the doors closed on January 4th. I, am hurt, upset, disappointed, and FURIOUS!!! How in the world could this company allow people to keep signing up, if they knew they were going to be closing?? There's no way they didn't see this coming, my counselor even admitted to me that they had seen the writing on the wall some time ago. So why let people sign up still? That just smacks of fraud to me. I mean, yes, it's true, I have been losing weight, I believe it's a good program!! And I was thrilled... I was hopeful... and for the first time, in years, I thought maybe this was it, I was going to drop some weight, have support, and do well. Now, I'm stuck. I won't have a counselor anymore. I won't have a weekly weigh in anymore. I won't have the supplements anymore. I won't have someone to talk to about my eating habits, and new lifestyle. I won't have what was working and it makes me SICK!! I hate to say this, but people make fun of overweight people, and say we are lazy and don't try... well check this out... I WAS TRYING!! And I was doing good!! So, now what!!?? Really. This is insane, unfair and downright depressing. Now I wonder, where is my money going to go? If anything, I want it back... ALL OF IT. I gave them over $400 -- and I want every penny of it back. I suspect I will never see a cent of it, and that brings tears to my eyes. I feel like a victim, and I feel I was totally taken advantage of... lead along, and used. So, is this it?? Is this how things end? With me being ripped off, ditched and left out in the cold??? This is wrong, wrong, wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
