And btw, doesn't matter if you are the ridiculous childish term you used or not (which you must be talking about yourself), it doesn't work....but keep spending your money, as long as it is in America, it helps the economy. :) Oh, and if it is for that last few pounds, as you state, why are they NOT advertising it as such?

This includes high intensity lasers. It has only been approved that it is safe to use, it has not been approved that it is effective. For that to happen, the FDA has to do studies of real people using the machine over a period of time (exactly like they do for drugs) and that is not the case. Machinery is not in the same class as drugs either, because it isn't something ingested. Still, anything that makes you think you will lose weight can have a placebo effect. If spending thousands of dollars to try to do something to your body that you should be doing naturally is in your game plan, go for it. I'm going to keep my shape by eating healthy and moving my body.

In fact, the Zerona was made and is being pushed by sales people to plastic surgeons as a simple way to bring in extra income. Not only is it free to have on site, but it is automatic almost zero overhead money in the pocket, because a monkey can run the machine and there is no need to even have a doctor present while doing so. However, it is sold so much easier by a doctor, because most people will believe anything a doctor tells them. These "board certified" physicians (and not, not all of them are plastic surgeons) are simply not willing to scam their customers. Which is exactly what it is, a scam. That is why they have to tell you that everyone differs. If you go in an pay for liposuction, you are given a promise to get rid of a certain area. So, if you want to waste your money on a placebo, you can. Personally I will stick to what really works to keep me in shape. And for anyone that truly has an obese amount of fat, save your dollars and join a gym for 99 dollars a year! You are absolutely INCORRECT about the statement regarding plastic surgeons.

It doesn't work by itself. It requires the individual to do some of the work. This program is for people that already live well and exercise regularly, looking to eliminate that last troubling bit. Buyer beware means if that u are fat lazy fuck American, don't expect a miracle. Well it is FDA approved so yeah, ignorant response yet again. It doesn’t work by itself.
