Had Zerona and Lapex BCS - Pittsburgh, PA

I had various treatments done that I purchased through sale sites like Groupon. I was trying to get the procedures as cheap as possible, for example: 3 treaments for $200.
Here's what you need to do to make them work: Don't eat a lot the night before. DON't drink alcohol, at all. (because your liver is needed for this to work)
Get up in the morning and exercise away your stored glycogen. About an hour of heavy exercise. Do not eat - unless you just eat ONE strawberry to put your body into fat-burning mode for the day.
Drink a ton of water the days before, during and after your procedure. ( because if you don't, your liver will be forced to help your kidneys instead of processing fat)
If you are healthy, maybe also drink a sugar free energy drink ON YOUR WAY to your treatment.
Now, your body is OUT of glycogen, and is burning fat due to the one strawberry and the energy drink.
Then, the lipo laser (zerona or Lapex) melts fat off of your body, it goes into your system like food that you just ate - about 600 calories worth of fat.
Then - get on their vibration machine - try to use it longer than they suggest if no one else is waiting to use the machine.
Then, exercise with elliptical or something to burn at least 600 calories.
WHY do you want to do all of that work? BECAUSE - the fat is being burnt from your abdomen or if you use the LAPEX you can select exactly where you want the fat to be burned! (they put laser paddles directly on your fat with Lapex)
With regular diet and exercise you may be burning MUSCLE - or losing a little from weird areas - not your belly pouch!
I wore a tight shirt, they put the paddles on my arms, the shirt fit as I walked out of there!
If you have a stubborn area it can now be gone if you follow my instructions above!
Oh, and to prevent gaining the fat back, start only eating less than 600 calories per meal - make sure you burn off that 600 calories before you eat something else!
Don't bother doing this if
1) you won't exercise before and after
2) you refuse to "not eat" before and after
3) you are planning to eat high calorie meals for most of your life

So, if you are happy with your body, or have no problem losing weight on your own with no help, why would you even be considering Zerona or reading this site?
As for me personally:
I had areas that I wanted to be smaller. Diet and exercise can have unpredictable results. Have you ever watched the biggest loser and noticed some contestants not losing or even gaining weight?
With regular diet and exercise you could lose a pound and not see a noticeable difference - it could be removed from your whole body in very small amounts - or worse yet it could come from an area that you may not want to lose in: breast/buttocks/face, etc.
You could lose muscle tissue, especially if you aren't eating the right foods/proteins/amounts.
So - with the new cool lasers - I am super happy to feel in control, that I can have them put the laser paddle put on the exact spot that I don't like and then just exercise that fat away.... in my exact problem area - instead of waiting for my body to pick what tissue that it wants to burn.
I haven't been weighing myself, but I wear smaller clothes and am very happy with the Lapex.
I think the Zerona did help me lose inches all over, although they mostly target the lasers to your middle section.
Zerona would help you burn fat instead of muscle, but I prefer the LAPEX laser instead because you can put the paddles specifically on your problem areas exactly.
Menopause!!! Exactly! Before Perimenopause, I could lose weight with diet and excercise but not any more. I've gone to a personal trainer 3 times a week for 2 years and I eat right and still my weight creeps up. I'm trying zerona for my pouchy belly today. I HOPE IT WORKS!
Good luck, and may the force be with you.
So here is a strategy you might can use: However much you worked out before, add 30 minutes to that plus one extra day a week. After age 55, add another 30 minutes to that total, with half-workouts on Sundays. Regularly.
However much you ate before meno, subtract 50 calories from that daily total for every year you are over 50. And this is not temporary, this is the way it will have to be for the duration, if you want to avoid turning into your mother. Or your granny. You know what I mean...
I had a similar exercise plan working for me back in 2006, getting ready for a wedding, and lost 10 pounds in 2 months without Zerona or anything else.
