(FranchisePick.Com) The bankrupt Pure Weight Loss (formerly LA Weight Loss) chain and owner, Vahan Karian, who left thousands of former members and employees without hundreds of thousands of dollars in services, products, refunds and paychecks is due in court March 14.

I just received a notice from Bankruptcy Court regarding the case of PWL [Pure Weight Loss]. There will be a “Meeting of Creditors” at 10 am, March 14th at the William J. Green Federal Building in Philadelphia (600 Arch St., 2nd floor conference room, 10:00 am).
I don’t know if I can make it (don’t have to attend if I file my complaint by mail) but I think it would be great to go if I could get a bunch of their “creditors” (that’s US) to be there to face this shmoe down!
Anyone want to come to Philly??
If you are owed money by Pure Weight Loss, you should file a claim form through the bankruptcy court. Click here for Pure Weight Loss Bankruptcy information and forms.
Road Trip Idea: Why not come to Philadelphia for the Pure Weight Loss Creditor’s Meeting on the 14th and stay over ’til St. Patrick’s Day on the 17th? We can throw a Pure Blarney Party & I’ll teach you all the acclaimed Sean Kelly Corned Beef & Guinness Diet. We’ll invite Vahan Karian (A fine Irish lad) along and get him to run out on the tab. I hear Vahan sings a version of Danny Boy so sweet it could bring tears to yer glass eye.
Sean — You are TOO funny! Your St. Patty’s menu is definitely NOT on plan! But I suspect you’ll get some takers.
Hope to see a bunch of us in Philly next month.

I would like my money back. It has been 8 weeks and have not heard anything. I filled out all the necessary paper work.
How far back would customers be contacted about this meeting in Philadelphia? If you have already completed the contract – why would you be contacted? This group was also known as Weight Loss Centers some time ago – so this is a maneuver used when things don’t go right. Thanks.
Hey Hi. I’m in Illinois…
Do you know if I can file with PA?
They owe me quite a bit.
Thanks,
Carolyn
