tried their speciality weight loss program that uses some space age laser treatment on flabby areas that is supposed to permanently destroy fat cells without requiring surgery. this was in conjunction with some ultrasound, this exercise thingie called a fitvibe, another widget called a jiggler and a suggested maintainable diet plan (includes eating carbs, oils, peanut butter). this was to replace standards methods of weight loss (cardio, weight training, low carb, etc). results? hundreds of $ in wasted gasoline driving back and forth to the middle of nowhere in issaquah, thousands of $ wasted on this program, a hundred hours of time wasted and i'm actually bigger than before (measurements proven). this isn't to say they weren't sympathetic. no, actually the staff were the kindest people i had ever met. and the spa itself is beautiful. try their wine, cheese, tea and coffee. but the results simply weren't there. i suggest if you want to keep the weight off, traditional methods are still better. and besides, for a FRACTION of the cost (400$), i could have bought myself a fitvibe-like machine from costco.
