Lindora Comprehensive Weight Control

Very low calorie diet with boxed food.

I am a big fan of Lindora, but not this location. They are nice, but not helpful like the other locations I have been successful at. Also, the office is really run down… not at all a medical environment. I hope their corporate office will look into it.

I can’t get enough of the girls here. They are all so helpful and so encouraging to accomplish what you set out to do. I never have to wait more than 5 minutes, and they always give me as much time as I need, no matter how busy they are. Love it here!

This office is made up of a very nice, bubbly, blonde crew…
However, their kindness does not make up for their lack of knowledge and resourcefulness…
I recently went to the Northridge office to make sure I was following the diet correctly, in which the nurse brought to my attention that I wasn’t eating correctly and completely made over my menu days…
The nurses at Sherman Oaks look at my food journal everyday, but never even mentioned that I was eating the wrong foods… they just get lazy and print out a «plateau menu» when my problem is not being in ketosis…

The staff are the nicest people but it’s not worth it. I paid $ 536 for a 10-​week program but I was essentially required to also pay an annual membership fee of $ 199 if I wanted to get the 50% discounted price of $ 536. Otherwise, the 10-​week program (you go in 5x a week) would’ve cost me $ 1062. Basically, they tell you what to eat but you could find this out for free — protein, vegetables, fruit — the ratio comes out to be 40%, 30%, 30% in terms of grams of food. You’re not supposed to eat more than 50 grams of carbs a day. You’re supposed to exercise 45 minutes a day. I’ve had other friends who’ve done this program and love it and lost 15 – 20 pounds in 10 weeks but for me, I think it’s a waste of money b/​c all the things they tell you to do, you could do it for free. The only thing that’s different is that you get a B12 shot 5x a week. And they weigh you 5x a week.

The friendly nurses especially, Nikki, Leslie & Bee made me feel very comfortable from the first day. They are VERY positive and were great in helping empower me to lose 20% of my body weight.
I encourage anybody that has the want, to go in and see them. Thank you girls, your all the best! Gary T
