I have lost 37.5 pounds since October 8, 2000 with LAWL. Before that I was with WW, having lost a great deal of weight, my body plateaud for 8 months......Since July 7, 1998, I have lost a total of 120.5 pounds...with approximately 23 more to go. I find LAWL to be an extremely difficult and disciplined program....especially for someone with my personality....I don't know what it means to cheat...I stick to the program like white on rice.....I take my food scale out with me when I eat. But what I wanted to say was that I am disgusted with their personnel. The girl that weighed me this morning...for sure weighed over 300 pounds. I would like to see people going through my daily struggle....I lost 4.5 pounds this week and all she said was, "It went down." It went down???????????????? I don't understand why they don't have people who are on the program and can relate to us. They are coming out with a new juice thing...in March. You do the program for 2 days. You can have 32 ozs of juice...2 bars, 6 ozs of protein, 2 veggies...I'm not sure if that's it..but one counselor at the Center did it and she lost 8 pounds in 2 days that she said stayed off. Of course, everyone's mileage may vary. Also, 2 weeks ago, I did the program they give you at the beginning...with all the protein hoping to jolt things....I gained 1.25 pounds last week, but lost 4.5 pounds this week. And I guess doing the protein thing...gave my brain a much needed rest. That's it for now...feel free to e-mail me at
