Complaint Review: Slim 4 Life Kansas City

This happened several years ago & I fought Slim 4 life & they did nothing & I lost over $500 & left w/ an unbelievable amount of nasty snacks I was forced to purchase & then never allowed to eat.  This is just a warning to never do this diet, all I wanted to do was lose 20 lbs & get down to 120.  I eventually lost weight but on my own, not by Slim 4 Life.  They are a big rip off -

I wanted to lose 20 lbs & they kept bragging how easy it was with Slim 4 Life so I went in.  The tv ad was not what I paid after I went into Gladstone Office. 

To lose 20 lbs, they told me it would cost me $500 + I had to purchase all the snacks to guarantee the weightloss. It would only take max 2 month if I was serious about my weightloss. 

I went in for weight check a couple days of the week & wasn't losing any weight, my ankles swelled up & I gained weight. They immediately cut the snacks they told me I had to buy & reduced my calories & still no weight loss. They kept cutting my calories, still no weight loss.  I was weak, not sleeping & hungry.

Suddenly I was coming into the office almost everyday & nothing.  It was 4 weeks, I was starving to death, with horrible headaches all the time.  I was hungry all the time & couldn't sleep.  I had met w/ every single one of those hourly wage girls up there & they had no idea what to do w/ me.  They'd measure me, weigh me & look at my ankles.  I hurt, ached & was starving.  Eating very small amounts of chicken & veggies. 

At the sixth week I was miserable to be around, they had me down to like 900 calories & I weighed 140lbs when I went in & I still weighed the same.  They even wanted me to wear the same clothes when I came in to be weighed so they could rule that out.  But everytime my ankles were swelled up.  I hurt. 

I was crying & couldn't take it any longer & they told me to eat if I am hungry & I did.  I went in & said I wanted my money back & they looked at my file & saw the red ink write ins I ate food not in the diet & they said I did not stick to the program & waived the warranty.  Slim 4 life had starved me for over 7 weeks.  They were not capable of providing a healthy weightloss program, lied to me & got away with it.  

I quit the program at 138 lbs, swelled & in pain with severe headaches.  I even spoke to a manager several time & they never gave me any of the guarantee money back. It didn't matter that they couldn't provide the program they advertised it was all my fault. 

More than anything I am giving you an honest warning & those tv ads are lies or they were for me.  I'm not over weight I just wanted to get rid of 20lbs & they never made it happen.  Eat healthy watch your sodium, sugar & starches.  It will make a difference & exercise. 

Slim 4 Life risked my health over & over & lied to me.  You can't live on 900+ calories a day without risk.
