Well I have been an obese victim all my life and tried various diets in my life -- ranging from crash diets to aerobic sessions but always I hv a yo yo effect i.e I lost 10 kilos but i gain 20 in the next 6-8 months.Then I was lured into vlcc seeing their glossy advertisements , showing puffed guys turning into hot models and sure I was tempted.
I visited the VLCC branch in south end circle bangalore - and as previous comments says the staff was very very friendly , and I took a long time to decide on the package ..but I must congratulate the marketing sales girl ..for she eventually (by calling me 3 times a day ) made sure I joined .
Finally I enrolled for a 15 kilo prgram in 3-4 months ... and lo behold next day I get a session saying
i need to follow a strict diet and also 1 hour of exercise
( note: previously with 1 hour of aerobics and good healthy food - I had lost 15 kilos on my own) so what is the additional benefit I get by using vlcc --
All through the 3 months all I did was lie down , the boys would put some massagers / magnetic strips on the entire body and watch TV - which was kept on the ceiling ( kind of cool eh !!!! ) and also regular cellulite massages ...
after 3 months --i hardly lost even a 3 kilos --- and finally they blamed saying I was not following a strict diet ( hello !!! if I were to diet and exercise by myself -- why would I need vlcc ) - which I was following --
I finally had to bid adieu to VLCC -- being wiser after shelling out 28000 rupees !!! but my friends --now I hv lost 20 kilose ...just by 1 hour of tread mill per day , lot of protein rich food and less of carbohydrates ..and it has worked tremondously well ..
so pls pls pls --do not fall for VLCC - and all the qualms they say .. it is just another money making company ... just that they target the fat guys :)))))
marketing staff : very good polite in the beginning and once u pay -- u r nobody
Boys: poor boys who earn a living talking abt health benefits ( I talked to one person and he said they
are given a 2 week training -- where they learn things like cellulite , fat , burn , kilo , ..etc to please the customers )
Doctors: just try discussing any medical ailment and they will go topsy turvy ...
all I suggest is internet is the best place to find answers for all your health problems - so pls pls dont fall in the the ditch known as VLCC
