Weight Loss Program at Davis Clinic
 

Saw an ad in Sound Clips about a weight loss program (Chiro Thin) at the Davis Chiropractic Clinic. Anyone have any experience or knowledge of the success and cost of this program? Thank you.

I am guessing from their website it is prepackaged food for sale, much like nutra system.

There are two ways to lose weight; burn more calories through exercise or take in less calories in what you eat.

Gracie, are you sure I can't take a pill at bedtime Or wrap myself in Saran Wrap and drop 20 pounds the first week?

As someone that had a morbid weight problem, I can tell you everyone wants an "easy, no hard work" weight loss solution. FACT IS that never has and doesn't now exist. If you are knowledgeable in "how to loose weight but can't, you probably have emotional issues driving your over eating. I strongly suggest you find a good counselor and deal with those issues first. If you've never been on a diet and don't know how to modify your eating habits, check with your doctor first then try Weight Watchers or join one of the weight loss groups in TV. Exercise does help but you can't get there on exercise alone. IMHO most commercial weight loss diets, drugs and supplements are snake oil... And even if they work short term, you usually gain it all back plus some when you stop.

The world is full of those seeking "Pixie Dust" to cure all sorts of ills....obesity, hair loss, prostate issues, turkey neck, hard water, and yes, inability to break 100 at golf. Billions of dollars wasted each year.

You are right as usual, Mr. Chicken.

And each year that we live usually adds more observations of this kind. I very much enjoy and learn from all kinds of people, but the wisest are frequently the............ones living south of 466A.

Just kidding. YOU ALL KNOW HOW I FEEL about trying to be with an isolated age group.

Don't MESS with old people.

Now, gadgets....that's another story...you can't ever own enough gadgets.

Google "Chirothin" and you'll find out what it is without "guessing". A casual reading will indicate it's some type of nutritional supplement combined with some dietary changes. There are no pre packaged foods.




About the Program - ChiroThin Weightloss

I wouldn't go to the Davis Clinic for anything. His specialty is taking people's money. He charges for therapy's (like ice bags) that do very little. Just my opinion, he tried to sell
me a twelve week program that was over a thousand dollars. I went to some one else but not before I was stuck for $300.

Be careful going there..... If you check other posts on this clinic, you will find that he does NOT have a good reputation! My guess, anything that puts MORE money in his pocket, is his MO!!!

:agree: Not a good reputation. Weight Watchers works for some people and IMHO, would be a much better choice (and much less expensive).

I did a weight loss program with Davis last year. They suggested a loan program that immediately gave them $ 3,000. up front. Shame on me. Spent thousands of dollars before I participated. Very restrictive diet and $30. for 6-8 portion box of food. Appointments dropped or changed for weigh-ins, no records kept. Raised my liver count and needed a scan. Nearly got arrested for complaining loudly in the waiting room. Could go on and on. I lost the weight because of self determination and self control. Do Weight Watchers and you can dine out, have a support group and save a bundle.

I am trying to lose weight as we blog. Walking fast every day and watching carbs and sugars. Hopefully I will see some progress in the next few weeks... please don't spend money on gimmicks. Just keep telling yourself you can do it!

C'mon folks, even if you don't exercise, EAT LESS. You need the will power to change your eating habits and the courage to abide by the changes. Talk to a nutritionist, not your primary, he is not that well trained. Educate yourself, you can loose weight.

IMHO losing weight is very similar to quit smoking. Most important is self-discipline. 90% is mental. Following a healthy diet and exercise will do it for most people. Occasionally there is a health issue. This is why it's important to talk to your doctor BEFORE starting any program.
