  • When I joined up my coach new I lived quite a distance from her location. She told me if that got to be a problem that you can switch to another clinic without paying a fee. I am not sure if that is the case everywhere.
  • Quote: I honestly need some encouragement to go on with this diet. My IP coach fired me today. I haven't been to a weigh-in in a month, the first 3 weeks were because she failed to respond to any of my calls/texts/messages to set up an appt. Every week when I come in she wont schedule the following week's weigh-in, she tells me to text her, the front desk at this office do not touch her schedule so they refuse to help when you can't get ahold of her. So the majority of the time she doesn't respond to any texts, or calls, or facebook messages, so I don't know wtf Im suppose to do about that.

    These past 2 weeks Ive had 4 friends/coworkers die, Ive had a lot of funerals to go to, its been really hard and really crappy that this has happened to so many people I know .

    I don't feel that it was fair to fire me. What would you guys do in this situation? Hopefully Im allowed to go in and buy food, not sure, but I think I can. I would be more upset but Ive been crying all day after going to a funeral for one of my favorite coworkers so I don't have a lot of energy to flip out or anything, that's a good thing though!
    Did she fire you because you gain weigh or because you "didn't show"... That seems very odd that she doesn't respond to you after she has asked you to text her, it seems she really doesn't want to coach you... I'd send an email to corporate since she's representing the brand and this is not a good way to do it.
  • I def agree with the others - please say something to corporate about this coach! If nothing gets said - noone knows that something is wrong! Better to fix the issue than to let it drag on and unfortunately, have this problem happen to someone else.
