Has LA Weight Loss had a name change. I have seen ads for Family Weight Loss.....not seeing LA Weight Loss ads anymore....

Someone else mentioned that a few threads back. But I haven't seen it in my area yet. I forgot to ask them last week, but when I go to the COD today I'm gonna bring it up.

I asked my COD today, and they hadn't heard anything about it. It could be one of those corporate vs. franchise things, or maybe it's because we're in Canada and never know what's going on

In any case, it seems like every COD does something a little differently, so it looks like we'll just have to wait and see what the changes are ahead!

My COD knew nothing and I mentioned it to the district manager. Infact he said he was gonna check out this site!

I did a search here is the website http://www.familyweightlosscenters.com/ If you click the at home log in you will be redirected to the LA Weightloss online page.

How very odd. I wonder just how widespread this is going to be. Seems to only be in the US right now, in any case...

For what it's worth, I went to the website and typed in "find a location near you" and MY center & their phone number came up. Interesting....

And that's definitely my favourite LAWL mac and cheese recipe in the corner there!

uh oh - neither one of the centers I go to comes up in the search. I hope that's not a bad omen.

Take heart Shannon... Doesn't do the diet any good to worry..

I wonder, post-name change, if we'll get a different franchise here in ABQ to replace our shutterd COD's... Oh well.. If we do get the full refund, we'll be Disney bound!!!

WOOHOO - I called the COD and not only are they staying but she said they might not be listed because they are moving soon. They will be moving MUCH closer to my house so maybe I can get there more than once a week.

Dan you're right about the worrying. I have been so stressed this month and it shows. A new month is starting and a new worry free, on plan resolve is setting in (crossing fingers, knocking on wood, kicking the cat 3 times and spinning) Don't ask me about the third one, doesn't really do anything but I do enjoy kicking the cat every now and again just for grins.

JUST KIDDING ALL YOU CAT PEOPLE......JUST KIDDING..... SHEESH

Just as long as you don't kick any dogs, I'm cool with that..

Would never kick a dog. They are perfect little friends, well except pit bulls but I wouldn't kick them either cuz they'd de-limb me.

My Center briefly went out of business and has been in transition for about 6 weeks. It has been really difficult, very abbreviated hours, never the same counselor, different story every week. Today they had a "PURE WEIGHT LOSS GRAND OPENING" sign. Another new person at the desk. She is not sure what they are going to do with the LAWL customers! I am hanging in there, this board helps tremendously. I think all of the Central Florida Centers are going to be this name, but I am not sure. According to one of the many people I saw Pure Weight Loss and LAWL are running my center as a corporate franchise. The 2 companies are related somehow. I think LAWL is trying to move away from the name because of bad press.

Yes, LA Weight Loss has changed it's name to Family weight loss. We feel the need to reach out to families with child obesity being a big thing, we want it to be considered a family environment. In other states it's still La Weight loss, the only ones who have changed their name is the ones in Washington State, and we have different programs, which are more affordable then they used to be!
