Common Biggest Loser Q & A
What if I am a current or past weight loss patient of LivingYoung, can I still participate? Yes, of course. If you are a current weight loss patient you do not need to pay the initial fee of $105, only the registration fee of $65 to get signed up. If you are a past weight loss patient you also do not need to pay the initial weight loss fee, however if it’s been a while we may need to repeat your blood work or EKG and you may pay for those items a la carte.
What happens if I miss my appointment? If you miss your appointment, try and get in another appointment during that week so we can track your progress for that week (you can’t be a weekly winner if you don’t get weighed in). If you miss a weekly visit altogether you will still be charged the $55 weekly fee.
How do I know if my BMI is between 27 and 42%? If you divide your weight in kilograms (kg) by your height in meters (m), then divide the answer by your height again, you can calculate your BMI. Or click here for a estimated BMI Calculator. If you are still unsure, you can always come in and we can give you an exact measurement.
Do I have to pay everything up front? No, you pay as you go. You will pay for your Initial First Visit of $150 during that visit. Your credit card will then be automatically charged $55 each week for the following 11 weeks.
Do I need to take the appetite suppressants? You do not need to take the appetite suppressants to see awesome results. Appetite suppressants can help some patients with changing bad habits to good habits, but are not required. We also have different options available to help suppress the appetite, including all natural ones.
What happens if something comes up and I can no longer participate (I move, family emergency, etc.)? In the event it becomes impossible for you to continue participating in the Challenge you may opt out. You will need to send in a written statement to us as to why you are no longer able to participate. Your automatic weekly payments will be discontinued within 5 days of us receiving the letter. You may still be charged that week if your date to be charged is within that 5 day period.
How will I know who is winning throughout the Challenge?
Each week we will be posting the prior week’s top 3 biggest losers on our website. We will also be noting who is holding the lead for the championship of the Biggest Loser.
Other important things to know:
Your first name and small head-shot will be used during this challenge on our website and possibly on social media.
