My Verdict on Kevin Trudeau’s “The Weight Loss Secret They Don’t Want You To Know About”

I must say that before I bought this book I did a bit of “internet research” on Kevin Trudeau. There was so much negativity surrounding this guy. I mean people were labeling him as a “snake oil salesman”, “scammer”, “charlatan” and liberally dropping a few “f-bombs” (YIKES) in those colorful descriptions. John Stossel also did a piece on him. I really don’t care for John Stossel because he always came across as the “gotcha” guy and I felt he was very negative. I’m sure he’s done a lot of great work but, its all irrelevant to me since I like to make up my own mind. All of this should have scared me off but, for some reason, anyone or anything that people are this passionate about (either in a good way or bad), I want to know more about.

Going back to my first post, I wasn’t leaping for joy after reading “The Weight Loss Secret They Don’t Want You To Know About” because it just seemed impossible to assimilate into my busy lifestyle. Once I was able to get the HCG drops and get into a new mindset of “I can do this and it will work”…it happened. And, it happened just as KT describes in the book. So, do I think he’s a scammer? In this instance…no.

There is one question I do have for KT. Its based on many of the complaints that I read. In many cases, the complaints weren’t about KT himself or his products…they were based on the customer service people received when they encountered a problem. These complaints were firmly planted in the “I want my money back” department or some folks were overcharged or billed for items they didn’t want. I’d be annoyed too.

KT, why not improve this aspect of your company? Not everyone is going to like your product, so give them their money back if its requested during the time frame you laid out and only charge people for what they want. In all fairness, let me say KT is not the one answering the phones (or not answering in some cases) but its his name so he gets the black eye. Fix this problem KT and it’s one less thing for people to complain about I think.

VERDICT: I kinda like KT’s style so far and yes the HCG diet works.
