The service was great! The Doctor was friendly and made me feel comfortable. He explained the weight loss program thoroughly; he would stop and let me ask questions. I felt no pressure and was well informed by the time I was ready to go. I am excited about starting my journey!

My first consultation was very constructive. Goals were developed and potential barrier were Identified. I arrived a skeptic with my arms folded. After we talked for a while about my history and my struggles, the doctor said “If You are going to go forward with this program, you are going to need to have a good reason”. I unfolded my arms and told him my reasons. He nodded and smiled. I’m all in.

I started my weightloss Journey in October 2020. I was tired of trying every single diet out there with maybe losing 2 or 3 lbs. Im very active and was Mountain Biking, doing Beachbody workouts etc and the scale would not move. A friend of mine had recommended Align so I signed up for the Consultation. The Consultation was so informative and I decided right then and there to sign up for the Program. This program is so precise in the way it works and how it teaches you about your body. I have never seen my body react the way it did and drop the weight and body fat that i did. I have successfully lost 31.3 lbs and have never felt better. Dr. McAlees and his entire staff are top notch professionals. They are so supportive and knowledgeable. If you really want a program that sets you up for success, make an appointment to start your new improved life. Thank you ALIGN!!!

I’ve been on the program for 2 months and I feel fabulous, my friends and family are amazed. It was easier than expected mainly because of the awesome support system that Dr. Mc has in place. My couches are phenomenal are always so patient. IT’S AN EATING LIFESTYLE CHANGE that is so easily adaptable and the rewards of staying the course are well worth it!! This is MY review. Not coerced and no one asked me too. I’ve done other programs and was miserable through the entire process. I would recommend this program for anyone serious about looking better, feeling better, and being better!!

I had neglected my routine during the pandemic and felt unhealthy and over my goal weight so I decided to drop by Align and check in. To my joy my personal coach Mindy was there. Mindy advised me how to jump start again and gave me a boost to want to get back on tract. There are some in this world that just make you want to get on track. Mindy’s being there did it for me. Thank you Mindy!

From day one, the entire staff has been awesome.I have learned so much about my body and how to feed it properly. Dr McAlees is very caring and motivational and my health coach has been there for me anytime I have questions or concerns, even after office hours. The best part is, I have lost 10lbs in less than 2 weeks! I would highly recommend Align to anyone who wants to get healthy and feel better!

Align Weight Loss & Body Balancing is truly amazing. For several years, since I had a hysterectomy, Ive struggled with weight gain and hormone challenges. After seeing the commercials I decided to learn more about Align and I started my journey on 11/13/19. It was the best decision Ive ever made. The system has been so effective Ive lost 25 lbs. and Ive never felt better. I will recommend this program to everyone. Its science-based and has set me up for better health for the rest of my life!

Align Weight Loss has been the best weight loss program I have ever tried. The staff is very supportive and the program is so easy to follow. I am 61 years old and I have lost 40 pounds in just 2.5 months. I feel great and have a much easier time keeping up with my grandchildren! It has become a lifestyle change for me and I now know what I can and cant eat to stay healthy.

This has been a life change for me thanks to Align. The program is easy to follow and I now look forward to selecting healthy foods each day. I was a migraine sufferer for years and I believe not eating foods that I am intolerant to has alleviated my headaches. I lost 19 pounds in 30 days and have never felt better. Mindy is responsive and incredibly helpful!

I have tried almost every diet out there to lose weight and sometimes it would work, but then I would gain weight again. After seeing commercials on Align and Body Balancing I did some research and was amazed at everything I saw. The team is wonderful, and very supportive. The first week is not easy, especially if you love sweets, cheese, bread as much as I do! The plan is easy to follow, and after just a few weeks, my cravings were gone. I have lost 30 pounds and feel fantastic! I have more energy, my migraines are so much better than they were, and I feel so much better overall. If you have tried everything out there, this is the place for you!

I started this program the end of July, 2019. To date Ive lost 28 pounds which was my goal! However most likely I will want to lose another 5-10 pounds and maintain my weight for life. Prior to this journey I was living with pain as a result of TKR and both Achilles repair procedures with the weight off I feel so much better, I eat better and sensibly and most importantly no more swelling of the knees & ankles. The program is pricey but definitely worth it!

My Health Coach Mindy is awesome. She’s attentive and prompt to my emails when I have a question. Mindy is very knowledgeable about the program and always offer different options that’s catered to my body. I always look forward to seeing the videos from Dr McAlles. The videos are very encouraging and informative. I always feel like he’s talking directly to me!! The FB support group is very helpful. Clients in the program have the same weigh loss struggles just like me. They share recipes and testimonies that are very inspiring. They let me know that I’m not alone in the fight to live a healthier lifestyle. I love Align Weight Loss & Body Balancing and I would highly recommend it anyone that’s struggling to lose weight and keep it off!!! Thanks, Patricia Butler

Even though I had been eating clean and healthy for many years, I still struggled with losing weight. Dr. Matt helped me tweak my diet and balance my hormones-allowing me to finally lose weight, sleep better, and feel better overall. Dr. Matt and his staff are very knowledgeable and supportive. It has been two years since I started the program and I have been able to maintain my weight loss by eating sensibly and making healthy choices.

Review №32

FIRST of all, the reason youre not seeing any bad reviews here is that you are required to sign an agreement when you enroll in the program that says if you write a bad review online, you will be penalized with a $10,000 fine!!!!!!!!!! Let me say that again, a TEN THOUSAND DOLLAR FINE. And you sign it (which is why Im writing this review under an alias email). This is such a bad program, it reduces your calorie intake to under 1200 calories for women which, DUH, youre gonna lose weight if youre eating 1200 calories or less!!! They sell you their products (which have little to no value) and test a piece of your hair for $600 to see what foods you may be allergic to and therefore, could cause inflammation. The program costs $2000 and its secret is this: cut your calories down to 1200 a day and drink water. There- you got it free. I fell for it because I had just had a baby and was desperate- Im not sure if I thought I could buy the weight loss or if I was just so desperate that I was delirious but please be smarter than this. Weight loss takes hard work and sacrifice. These people never called me to check in, never asked why I didnt come back, nothing. The check was cashed and that was that. Please dont be fooled- you cant buy the work- you just have to do it the old fashioned way, no matter how frustrating that may feel. Good luck.

70 days ago I began my journey with Align Weight Loss & Body Balancing. Since then my life has changed drastically, for the better. Ive lost 40 pounds and have gone from a size 38 to size 29. I reached my original weight loss goal and have decided to lose another 10 pounds.The staff is truly amazing and extremely helpful. I had several questions in the first couple weeks of the program. Mindy always responded quickly, compassionately and professionally.This has not been a diet for me, its truly a lifestyle change. Ive learned how to eat properly, and pay more attention to what I put in my body. I sleep better and have so much more energy throughout the day. I dont have cravings and just feel healthier.Im so glad I took a chance with Align. If youre serious about changing your life, set up an appointment with them.

Align has an amazing program that allowed me to balance my hormones so that I could lose my remaining 25 pounds of baby weight. Accountability was an important aspect of the program and I really felt supported by the health coaches every step of the way. Now I feel awesome, full of energy and have been able to easily keep the weight off.

Align is an amazing program with an awesome staff. The doctors and health coaches are so helpful and kind and the hair testing has changed my life. For so long, I didn’t know what foods to eat that were right for me and although I was eating healthy, I just wasn’t seeing the results that I should have, but after realizing which foods my body wasn’t responding correctly to, I was able to balance my diet and fix my metabolism naturally without medications. Thank you, Align!

Review №39

I started this program about a month ago and have lost 18 pounds so far. It has been a great experience! I honestly feel like my body has been cleansed inside out, no longer have stomach issues, feel flatter and healthier. All this only putting natural, real stuff inside my body. I have learned to plan meals better, to know I can be satisfied with smaller portion sides than I used to, I have discovered new recipes I enjoy from the ones provided and feel confident I will lose the rest of the pounds I need to lose and maintain my weight. My coach Julia Callaghan has been fantastic — always responsive, honest, knowledgeable, and encouraging. The videos they send (always the perfect time) from Dr. McAlee have been very informative and helpful. Totally recommend this program!

The Align program is a great program and it works!!! Very easy to follow even if one travels. I lost more than 16 pounds and felt the best that I have every felt. My sleep was restful (unlike before the program) and I was able to keep the weight off. Dr. McAlees and Mindy are wonderful to work with and truly care about your health and weight loss.

Align has been wonderful. 54lbs down and counting in less than 4 months. The program is strict but easy to follow. The science behind the process is huge. Knowing what my trigger foods are has helped me with inflammation, skin irritations and weight loss. The coaching support is great to have whenever needed. If you dont like counting points or calories I would recommend this plan.

The weight loss program at Align Weightless & Body Balancing is the most effective weight loss program Ive come across. Not only is it a great way for you to lose weight, but it is a step toward leading a much healthier life. Ive shed 30 lbs. without starving myself. My mood has improved, my energy level is better, and Ive hit my target weight. Since using this programs strategy, Ive been able to make a huge step to leading a truly healthy lifestyle and I can say it has changed my life without a doubt. The entire team is always so friendly, professional, knowledgeable and there whenever I need support. I would recommend that you give it a shot if you are sick of the next fad diet and want something that is sustainable, and truly effective for living a healthy life.

This is a lifetime support system not just a program.I have to say that this will change the quality of your health and the quality of your life I feel 20 years younger. I have no pain, no hunger or digestive distress whatsoever. They teach you a permanent lifestyle change. They show you how to do it for life with their help and knowledge. If you are at the end of your rope with fad diets and diet food then this is for you. Give it a try. If you follow the system they teach you with real food you will not be disappointed.

Earlier this year I participated in the Align Weight Loss and Body Balancing program and lost 40 pounds. Three months later, I had maintained the weight loss and was able to be more active because there was no longer pain with exercise. My doctor had me drop a blood pressure medication I had been on for years. I decided to follow the program for another month, and lost an additional 20 pounds. I am being monitored to possibly remove my last daily medication - and am thrilled to not be tied to a pill each day! The program is easy to follow, and it works! The staff are friendly and helpful - and Mindy is fantastic! She answers questions promptly and with understanding and encouragement. I have learned so very much about my relationship with food, as well as healthy foods and proper proportions. I have no doubt but that I will continue to make gains in health. Give this program a try - you will not regret it!

I love Align Weight Loss & Body Balancing staff! Thank you Dr. Matt!!! 100% success!! Amazing programs customized to each individual to get healthy and lose weight. I’ve tried so many diets in the past and failed because I was STARVING. Not with Align! With this program you learn what foods YOU should be eating and it’s not the same for everyone. Detoxifying your body and then losing weight... yes please! 💁‍♀️ Obviously I had to cut calories to a reasonable amount and stop eating 3000 a day (I think we all know that) but once they had me eating the right foods (buh bye donuts) I didn’t miss any of the calories I was used to taking in. I felt fuller longer! Information on healthy clean eating is out there but having someone customize a plan for you, and let you know what is working against you is priceless. You won’t regret this program! I had to give up some of the things I thought were healthy (Not donuts) and found out about it only through this program! In my opinion you get way more then you pay for! HIGHLY recommend this after having a baby... just make sure your hormones are back to normal so you don’t cry when they tell you no more donuts.

This is a systematic approach that eliminates the guesswork. Follow the plan and the weight will come off. A booklet of recipes is provided that has tasty dishes that are quick to fix in less that 15 mins from prep time to your plate. The thing I like the most is that it’s not filled with a lot caffeine!!

Review №55

Align weight loss center has been the most helpful weight loss journey I have ever tried; and I have tried many with some success, but not nearly the success I’ve found here. My health coach Kaitlyn has been right there for me, answering questions, providing great recipes to try, and encouraging me as I moved through the program. I know some have been critical of the cost; however, when it comes to health, there is little one can say, especially when there’s the likelihood of severe health issues later if weight isn’t addressed, and the cost of that....well, it could be astronomical!The program involves limiting food choices, but I was never unsatisfied. My cravings for junk ceased, and the nutritional support from the products was amazing. I’ve loved that it is all natural, nutritional, never made me feel weird. You eat real, whole, healthy food. I’ve lost a significant amount of weight, and still have some to go. I’m greatly encouraged and would highly recommend this program to anyone.

Where do I begin with this place...For the last 8-9 years, Ive battled with gaining weight. And I had been losing...big (no pun intended). I kept seeing commercials for Charlotte Health Center until I decided to finally see what all the fuss was about. It is probably the best phone call Ive ever made.The program itself is easy. Ill repeat and say it slower. It...is...easy. If you do what it says when it says to do it, you will lose weight. There is no excuse not to. Theyve done the work, you just follow the program.Im writing this on my 60th day of following the program. To date, Ive lost 64 pounds (354 to 290). All this without exercise, which starts tomorrow. At no point have I felt hungry, frustrated, tired, etc. In fact, just the opposite. Its the first time in my life my body has experienced targeted nutrition and its amazing. There is no packaged food...that is on you. The proprietary supplements are there to help cravings and aid in the nutrition they guide you with. Speaking of guidance, the best part of this program is the people.My fat guru Kaitlyn is nothing short of amazing. She is not only a great ambassador to Dr. M and Charlotte Health Center, but she truly cares about helping you succeed. She was patient with me as I sent stupid question after stupid question her way and always goes above and beyond to help me out. Having her in my corner made this whole process even easier. Everyone Ive come in contact with here are top notch people...its a joy to visit the office.In short, if you need to lose weight and lose it CORRECTLY, you need these people and their program. You will lose weight...as much as you want or need to. And you have amazing people helping you along the way. I cannot thank them enough

I was skeptical at first and have tried numerous weight loss programs. I started the program January 5th and I have already lost 40 pounds! The staff are very helpful and whenever I have a question Mindy answers the emails promptly. The book that they give you guides you and I was not hungry following the program. The most important thing in the beginning is following the rules in the book exactly, if you do that you will lose weight. I will continue with the program and realize its a lifestyle change thats well worth it.

I have struggled for a long time trying to lose weight. It seems the older I got, the harder it was to see the numbers on the scale decrease. Luckily, I saw a commercial on the TV for the Weight Loss & Body Balancing Center - and what a difference it has made!I began using their program at the end of May, and so far, Ive lost more than 30 pounds! I still have a few more pounds to go, but Im certain that I will achieve my goal. In addition, the support Kaitlyn gave me in this journey has been very helpful.So, if youre like me, and find it so hard to lose weight, reach out to them. You will be so happy you did!

Review №66

I cant say enough about what a lifestyle change this experience has been! Ive always struggled with my understanding of nutrition and this diet is by far the easiest to follow. To be honest, the first 5-7 days were difficult for me because my normal eating habits were so unhealthy. I chose the 60 day plan and I kept telling myself that 60 days was such a short amount of time considering how long Ive been overweight . However, I didnt have to wait 60 days because after the first week I no longer felt hungry and stopped having cravings for unhealthy foods. Ive been on many diets in my past and most recently a Freestyle diet. After 8 months, I did not lose. It occurred to me that Freestyle is what got me here in the first place! Ive been on the diet for 28 days and Ive lost over 25lbs. I recommend Align Weight Loss & Body Balancing to everyone that wants to listen!

Just found out the gag order this place requires you to sign cannot be enforced per Congressional order so everyone should feel free to HONESTLY review this company.RIP OFF!Cost $3,000!!! for 2 months and heres what I got: a bag of disgusting supplements, some vitamins, and a little book to track food. The instructions: extremely low carb intake & tiny amounts of protein. Basically, I paid $3,000 to be told not to eat carbs, no artificial sweeteners, some veggies, & some lean meats. There was no follow up from the staff. NO ONE called, emailed, or contacted me in any way to see how I was doing.SAVE YOUR MONEY - STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY.

I decided to give myself an early Christmas present, and after speaking to Dr. McAlees, I signed up for the Align weight loss program. My wife questioned why I started on December 9th, when the holiday party season was just beginning, but I figured if I could reach my weight loss goal without cheating during the initial 30 days that included Christmas and New Years, nothing (Super Bowl parties, Final Four watching) could stop me from making long term changes to my weight loss and body balancing. My first Body Composition Analysis reported my weight at 232.4 pounds. My initial goal was to get to 200 pounds ( my primary care physician has been telling me to do that for 3 years), with a stretch goal of 190. By following the Program protocols, food portions, and supplement intake, I reached 199.8 pounds on Day 28, a loss of 32.6 pounds. Fantastic! I was so jazzed that I decided to stay in what is called the Fix phase in order to reach my stretch goal. This morning, 12 days after breaking the 200 lb.barrier, and the 40th day into the program, my home scale registered 189.8 lbs. Wow. 42.6 pounds in 40 days! As others have noted in their reviews, the weight loss, when you follow all the guidelines Align has established, averages about 1 pound a day. I am now entering the Re-Introduce phase, a three week period where I begin to reset my new metabolism. I will now hold my weight at this new set point (190) by not fluctuating more than plus or minus 2 pounds. But as in the weight loss period, my health coach Julia will be giving both encouragement and instructions on how to lock in the new weight for the long term. What I like in this approach is that Align is with me not only to the weight loss, but through to the maintenance to lock in my weight long term.Ive seen comments in the reviews about the cost, but ask yourself, What would you pay for a new body? When I look in the mirror now, I recognize that I have been given a second chance to take care of a body that I abused through over eating and ingesting junk food for almost 70 years. A friend once asked me, How many overweight 80 year olds do you see? Not many, and you sure dont see any 90 year olds that are overweight. I got a decades head start on that first question by taking action now, but no matter what your age, the choice is yours. Along with the weight loss, my knees no longer ache, I can actually bend over to tie my shoes or tee up a golf ball with getting dizzy or out of breath, and the stairs in my house no longer seem like a trip up Mount Everest. I have Align to thank for that, and to Julia and Dr. Mac. At least sign up for a consultation; it was eye opening and weight dropping for me.

I started my taking my body back health journey about a month ago. My second child was 11 lb and I was having all kind of health issues after his pregnancy. I wasnt gaining but I definitely wasnt losing, I was just in a stagnant space.I had tried everything from new workouts to super restricted diets to everything that I could think of. I was at a loss until my sister mentioned this place.After having an initial phone conversation with Kaitlyn. I knew that this was the path I need to take. I am not even local and I drove 2.5 hrs to meet with Align. I love everything about this program and cannot stress that enough. My husband also cannot stop saying enough good things about how I really succeeded on this path.Health and weight loss is different for everyone but from my personal journey this is what I needed. In a month I was down about 22 pounds and so I signed up for a second round and Im very excited to get the final 20 off. The best part is that my health coach Kaitlyn is there for me whenever I need her. No matter how stupid my question seems when it comes out she always answers them quickly.Im really happy that I found the service and even happier that its working for me. I have no regrets about doing this at all and I cannot wait to see my final results. The program is easy to follow (but you have to do the work) and the best part for me is not only how I look, but how I feel. Its crazy to realize that for so much of my life I just wasnt feeling good and I thought that was normal. The eating clean, healthy lifestyle changes, and taking out things that my body doesnt process well has shown me that I can feel good and look good. This has truly been an eye-opener in game changer for me.

I had a very positive experience with Align Weightloss. Not only did I lose all the weight that I needed to but the staff was fantastic. Before I started the program I was at a loss with what to do with myself, I needed to lose a significant amount of weight and nothing I tried worked. After skeptically having my initial consultation I knew this was the right place for me it made total sense and I felt like this program was designed just for me. Kaitlyn is my health coach and she so knowledgeable and was able to help me in every way I needed from building muscle mass to mental health. I highly recommend this place to anyone who is serious about finally shedding the pounds!

I think the metrics speak for themselves.  Ive lost 20 lbs in 35 days.  The program works hands down.  Ive struggled with PCOS since I was a teenager, and after trying every fad diet over the last 25 years, losing and regaining the same 20-40 lbs this program has given me the quickest results.  It teaches me how to feed my body the fuel it needs nutritionally and I have not been hungry one day.  When you feed your body the foods it desires it does the natural thing and burns excess fat. I highly recommend the program for those struggling with nutritional necessities/deficiencies regarding their weight management.

I saw an ad and thought the personalized weight loss program may be good for me since I have some medical reasons causing weight loss issues. I paid the $30 for an initial appointment. On the phone I asked how much the weight loss program was because I didn’t want to waste my time or theirs for something I couldn’t afford. I got a very vague, no answer, response. They asked for my social security number and took a picture of my driver’s license, which I thought was weird. I got the impression they wanted to run a credit check. I politely said I wasn’t comfortable giving my social security number for a weight loss consultation. The $30 appointment is more of a sales call to get you to pay $500 to $3,000 for a plan that did not seem customized. They went over supplements everyone takes. I asked if there was calcium in them since I take calcium everyday. She said “I don’t think so”. I picked up a bottle and it was calcium. I left feeling ripped off for wasting my time and $30. The woman was very pleasant (so I feel badly writing a bad review), but it wasn’t her, it’s just a bad system in my opinion. She did say she would send me a list of food that they recommend (to everyone). Nothing yet. I had an unpleasant experience.

Fat, tired, grumpy and overwhelmed? I was & it’s an awful way to live! Solution? Gave myself Align as a 60th Birthday/retirement gift. Best. Decision. Ever.! Some worry about the cost, but seriously, how much is feeling and looking healthy worth? Who wouldn’t rather send money getting healthy than paying for medical treatments or medications? For me, Align was worth every penny! Lost 18 lbs in the first 15 days! results that definitely motivate you to keep going! In three short months I lost 58 lbs without diet pills, shots or nasty pre-made meals. Joint stiffness, digestive issues, chronic sinusitis, poor sleep, lack of concentration, anxiety & depression improved within days of starting the program. The natural supplements and clean eating plan really do ‘balance your body’. Five months post-program and I’m effortlessly maintaining my weight loss. Mindy and the staff are fabulous...knowledgeable, supportive and always quick to respond to questions and concerns. Also gun works & I wholeheartedly recommend Them to anyone needing to make a lifestyle change.

I began my journey on this new life style with determination and with the great coaches with Align Weightloss on July 11, 2019. It has truly changed my life. I have had diabetes, high cholesterol, and high blood pressure for years and a new added ailment is/was knee pain in my left knee. Since being on with this team I have learned to eat properly with the correct proportions. It hasn’t even officially been 3 months yet and I have lost 53 lbs. My A1C when I began was a high 7.5 and when it was check last month it has already came down to 5.4. I am not longer taking insulin and the pills I was taken for diabetes. My cholesterol is lower than it has ever been and I am having to constantly check my blood pressure because at times it drops pretty low when taking that medication. I still have a bit to go to hit my goal weight, but now I have no doubts I will finally make it there. Thanks to the wonderful coaches at Align Weightloss in Charlotte and Dr. Matthew McAlees. This is the best decision I ever made.... to join the journey!

This was the best money that Ive ever spent. Im 46 years old and have seen three major slowdowns in my metabolism over my adult life. As a result my weight crept from my normal 195 lbs to 230lbs over the last 5 years. Ive tried everything, Ketogenic diet, paleo, South Beach, Atkins, Nutrisystem, etc. None of those plans allowed me to lose more than 10 lbs (and Im very disciplined when on a plan) and certainly not for very long. I saw this plan on the news and out of desperation, decided to give it a try. Ive lost 37 lbs in 7 weeks. While the first 10 days were very tough, when I got through the cleanse phase everything became very manageable and I could not believe that I was losing 1lb per day on average. My coach Kaitlyn was extremely supportive and knowledgeable.She has helped me to tailor the plan to my specific needs and has given me so many practical tips on how to be successful despite a lot of business travel and disruptions to my routine. Today Im at 193 lbs and still dropping even though Im adding calories back into my diet. I cant say enough good things about Align and feel that this plan has literally saved my life. The best thing is that I understand exactly how to maintain my weight and fitness level going forward. Im not worried about ever being overweight again. The unexpected bonus in all this...I have abs (never again did I think I would see those). Needless to say, my wife is pretty happy about this whole process too!

Since meeting with Dr. McAlees and getting my nutrition in check with the Align Weight Loss program, I have finally been able to lose weight, attain better gut/digestion health, and regulate my blood sugar! I have struggled with hypoglycemia for the last decade and now I no longer have to worry about my sugar dropping! Not to mention my digestion issues have finally cleared up and I dont have to depend on laxatives or drugs to stay regular. I have a newfound energy level and overall just feel so much better! The staff here make me feel like family every time I come in. Kaitlyn and Mindy are two of the most supportive, uplifting health coaches that you will ever meet. Dr. McAlees has an astounding team. Im amazed at how devoted they all are to changing the quality of peoples lives and so grateful for the way they have changed mine! I highly recommend Align Weight Loss to anyone who wants to stop putting a band-aid on their health issues and truly be WELL.

PLEASE PLEASE READ . I usually dont say something unless it is positive however after watching so many advertisements I felt I needed to share this for those in my community. First I am in the medical profession so I have an understanding of health and wellness. The positive-,the girls who work there are nice and respond to emails. Also you will lose weight. Ok NOW PLEASE READ . This is a VERY expensive elimination diet. For those who dont know what the elimination diet is it is eliminating gluten , casein ( all dairy products ) and sugar . Then they give you a list of meat, fruit and veggies and you eat a very limited amount each day. There is powders and drops , never sure what was in them . If you dont eat gluten , sugar or casein and eat a limited amount of meat veggies and fruit you will absolutely lose wt. Everyone will lose wt. And fast which ISNT healthy or sustaining . PERIOD !!!BOTTOM LINE - VERY EXPENSIVE to simply stop eating gluten, casein and sugar . You can do that on your own. . The second you have a pc of bread , pasta , pc of cheese etc ypu begin to gain weight. I had maybe that stubborn 15-20 lbs to lose When I didnt lose it in the 1 month ,Matt said were you hungry eating 4 oz. of meat ? If not , eat 3 oz . That was all I needed to hear!!!!! Basically he was suggesting I eat almost nothing to lose the remaining 5 lbs . I was in shock . No idea who the Dr is that is guiding this program but this isnt a way to sustain wt lose for a long time . I lost 15 lbs in 1 month . So exciting and motivating. It didnt sustain , gained it all back and then some and didnt hesr from Matt again after I sent an email about it.

AlignMe has worked extremely well for me. I lost 53½ lbs in the first 60-days and as of today – I’m down almost 70-lbs in 3 ½ months. It’s true the weight goes on faster than it comes off and the older you get the harder it is to lose – and the more detrimental it is to your health. I have sleep apnea, had joint pain and body aches that were unexplainable, and was borderline diabetic – I had to do something. One thing for sure, the cost of health issues far outweighs (pun intended) the cost of any weight-loss program. Since losing the weight, I sleep better with lower air pressure on my cpap machine (and will soon be off the cpap completely), the aches and pains in my body and joints are all but gone, no more talk of knee replacement surgery, and I’ve moved way away from being diabetic. AlignMe was the right choice for me. I set my mind on succeeding and it was easy to do and follow without being hungry or increasing my daily activity (I’m not an exercise or gym person). Almost every day, someone says, “Wow, seeing a lot less of you these days”. I smile and tell them “Yeah, almost a third less” and then I tell them about AlignMe. For me, it’s really not just weight-loss. It’s weight-loss, body-balancing, and life changing. 20 more pounds to goal weight – a little closer every day.Can’t end without saying how wonderful and encouraging the friends (AlignMe staff) have been through this journey. And I only see them twice a month when I go in for a weigh-in and body scan. AlignMe does not require an office visit once or twice a week like most other programs. Eat real food, don’t increase exercise, come in every 15-days or so to get a weight scan to see how you’re doing, and lose weight - now that’s my kind of diet.

I have been on every diet in the world! And I was just getting ready to order yet one more diet book (my bookcase is filled with them!) - when I saw Dr. McAlees on a TV program. I made an appointment for the very next day - and it was the best decision of my life!! This is the first time I have actually learned what my body is intolerant to - which has kept me from losing and maintaining my weight loss, in all of those other programs! I started the program on July 6th, 2018 - and as of today, September 20th - I am down 30.4 lbs.! And in that time period, I also attended two Italian family reunions, and an Italian wedding (I stress Italian - as in lots of fabulous food and drink!!!) - and was STILL able to lose that much weight in such a short period of time! Prior to this program, I was unable to sleep, and felt horrible. Almost immediately, I was able to sleep through the night, and I have so much more energy! If you have tried everything, to no avail - run, do not walk - to Dr. McAlees and his fantastic staff!!
