following: LA Weight Loss
performance: gaining 0.5 lb a week

I'm from Minneapolis and I've been overweight my entire life (10lbs. 4oz. at birth). I played High School football at 315 (6'5") and then gained weight in college. I've never been heavier than when I started LA Weight Loss on 11/1/07 (365). I want to be around to watch my daughter grow up and to grow old with my wife!

LAWL Spokesperson???
It's official...My center in Eagan, MN is closing on 12/12. The director said that most of the smaller locations in Minnesota and WI are closing next week and the larger centers will stay open for two more weeks after that. My director said that last week, the area manager walked into the center and told everyone but the director to pack up their things and go. Brutal.

I was able to get a stack of meal plan diaries and food conversion booklets before they were gone. I told her that I plan to tell others how the plan works so I can get them started.

She also told me about the "On the Go" plan which is a horrible way to say they're still in business.

What really stinks is that this thing works! Look at us! We're proof! I know I'll miss the center and I can't see myself ballooning up, but now this wonderful program which absolutely changed my life and added 10's of years to my life is gone. I can't spread the word, I can't direct people to the place that changed my world, and it sucks.

Now it looks like just another "Fly By Night" scam that didn't work.

The truth is, it did work, but in today's world, people are cutting back. So they ignore a program like this, and buy $1 double cheeseburgers because they're cheaper.

I went to my center in Eagan, MN last Thursday and the lights were out. Sign on the door said "New hours, Closed Tues and Thurs". I guarantee my center is about to close up shop.

Sucks because it really works. Mom2, stick with it, get your plan and your products and work it yourself. It really does work.

Look at me, I saw my aunt this weekend for the first time since March and she started crying.

I'm worried this whole company is folding in front of our eyes. Traffic at my center is about half of what it was when I first started. They promoted the center director a few months ago and then after 6 weeks in her new title (in charge of 4 locations) they let her go.

This would explain the lack of communication from corporate about this promotion. No money to keep centers open, no money to fly a spokesperson to Puerto Rico.

LAWL Spokesperson???
Has anyone heard results of the contest LAWL was running to find a new spokesperson? It was posted on their blog at www.mylaweightlossdiary.com.

You were supposed to fill out an application, submit photos and a 25 second commercial of yourself.

Applications had to be in by 10/15/08 and they said winners would be chosen by 11/1/08.

I submitted an app but haven't heard anything yet.

Anybody heard any results???

The winners get to go to Puerto Rico and shoot a commercial.

Just trying to be the next "Jared".

"Dream Candy"
Please remember that we need to treat ourselves every once in a while.

Think of which candy ranks highest in your mind. Find that candy and eat a piece, but don't eat 10, and don't eat any of the 30 pieces that get in the way while trying to find your piece of "Dream Candy".

Last year, you ate 25 pieces of candy on and around Halloween. This year...eat 5.

This tiny change will produce results AND keep you happy.

Personally, I'm a Kit-Kat guy. I'll take the smallest bites and suck off all the chocolate until I'm only left with wafers.

Everything in Moderation people...
