LA Weight Loss Australia Goes Bust

Australian dieters have been left out of pocket after LA Weight Loss clinics closed their doors.
The LA Weight Loss franchise has been operating in Australia for about a year - with at least 12 clinics.
Yesterday, the doors were chained and there was a sign posted, apologising for the closure of the business."It is very disappointing. I feel for all those people who had only recently signed up," said Ms Deery. "There were many customers at the shop (yesterday), shaking their heads in shock."
Many customers have paid the 52 week maintenance fee (AUD$ 10 per week) in advance - as well as paying up front for a large supply of the protein bars.
There is no evidence that this has any affect on LA Weight Loss operations in the US.
NOTE: An on-line support group has been set-up here.
UPDATE: Apparently all Australian clients of LAWL will be receiving letters
canceling their contract for any further payments to LAWL.
