Reviews for Joli Medical Spa

Once I hit 50 yrs old, it seemed no diet worked anymore..even low calorie and exercise… until HCG.

I took HCG in June 2016 for 2 months, lost 20 lbs and kept it off without any work, or problem…until of course, I went on a complete eating binge this winter when I had a live-in guest that I needed to cook for and join in late dinners all winter….otherwise, I was able to keep it off with a moderate incremental calorie increase over time.​

My experience with taking the HCG was great! I was not sure going into it, for I have always been afraid of needles..and the thought of ‘self-injecting’ had me a bag of nerves….UNTIL  I actually did it the first time around! Then I realized it was easy and nothing..it became second nature, to wake and inject!  I loved it because the HCG FEELS SO GOOD!  lost my midday ‘tiredness’, I had tons of energy and my mood was always, ALWAYS very high and happy…Which thank God it was, so it kept my mind off of how hungry I would get! haha

Which brings me to the calorie cut, and hunger. They say it is the low-calorie intake that causes the weight loss, not the HCG. And that was proven right by me, and others I know were on it at the same time. For when if I increased my calories too much, the weight loss immediately slowed down or stopped altogether!  So ‘cheating’ is a NO! It will completely sabotage the whole diet!  Especially because we are not on it long enough for the body temperature to get used to the lower calorie intake. So after the initial weight loss and I reached the end of the HCG (2 months), I had to keep the very low-calorie count for a couple more months, where I kept losing a little bit, but also gave my body time to ‘catch up’ to its new weight!.

What the HCG did do for me was bring me into the best hormonal balance I have felt in years!  And even though, at first it doesn’t curb hunger, it does curbe the appetite after you are on it for 2 weeks at the right amount…then I was not hungry at all..I am not sure it has a ‘build up’ to it..but truly after 2-3 weeks, there was no hunger..I felt the key, was to be on the right amount, where as our metabolism age etc vary the outcome, etc. Also, It most definitely preserves muscle!  I DID see a significant change in my body composition.

My exercise routine was walking  the beach daily about 4 miles a day, and/or I used my trampoline..”JumpSport” combined with a shorter walk..the size of my legs and lower body reduced beautifully… and I know it was with the added benefit of the HCG, for I have been down to that weight before and was not as small.

I lost 6 lbs in the first week, and then 1.5 lbs per week after that, although 1 week, I lost nothing. So again, caloric intake, and the time of day which we eat, and the breakdown of calories all make a difference.

I started on a 500 calorie diet..125 fruit/snack…125 veggies…150 protein…but found I needed more protein (12 oz vs 7 oz the suggested amount)..so I traded off the fruit in am for egg whites with veggies, and varied my calorie intake between 500- 600 depending on how hungry I was feeling..Once you get it down, it is an easy diet !!

This HCG does more than we know, and it’s the only diet that has worked for me in many years, since menopause.

I get a B12-Lipotropic shot every few weeks (sometimes weekly if time allows), and I always find that my energy and focus is greatly enhanced, and my sleep pattern is improved immensely.

Was amazed at how professional and knowledgable everyone is here. My eyebrows were microbladed by the beautiful Amanda and I must say, wow, she did an amazing job! Kristen, the owner, is not only drop dead gorgeous, but incredibly down to earth. Both women were so sweet and I can’t wait to come back for my touch up.

I started receiving B12 Lipotropic Injections from Kristen about 6 months ago. Since then I have felt more energetic, have been able to focus better at work and my weight training has increased substantially.

I’m a runner and cross-fitter, and I had my first B12-Lipotropic shot about six months ago. I felt immediate results in my energy level. Normally, I would be so exhausted mid-afternoon, but now I don’t have that dip in my day. I try to get one every couple weeks. Highly recommended!

I love my appointments with Kristen. She is super personable, she knows her stuff and is on the up and up on the latest and greatest in her field of beauty. I highly recommend you meet Kristen before you consider going anywhere else. You will be happy you met her.

I am so happy with my eyelash lift and tint what a huge difference, it has made me feel so pretty. I look alive and refreshed as soon as I wake up! Thank you!!!

I honestly can’t say enough positive things about the B12 [Lipotropic] injections. Kristen had recommended I try it, as she knew I was going through a rigorous workout/diet program. I was a little skeptical, yet Kristen has never steered me wrong so I decided to try it. I could feel a major difference by that afternoon! I had so much energy, was more focused and just seemed to feel better overall. Waking up in the morning becomes effortless but the best part was my endurance for my workouts increased immensely! Once I start feeling like the effects are wearing off, I just call Kristen and of course she’s so accommodating that I usually get in there that day or the very next day. There really is no down side to receiving these injections. It’s extremely affordable and takes no time at all. You’ll love your newfound energy!

I would encourage everyone to call to just inquire if your interested. One conversation with her and you will be confident that she is your girl!! If I had to say one more thing…they do not make people like Kristen MacNeil anymore!! She is an overall kind, loving, caring, REAL person who will help you get what you want and need from your goal, whatever that may be!

Kristen brings an energy to her clients that make you feel beautiful from the inside out. Her and Rachael are a great team.

I am 51 years old.  I was on the HCG diet for approximately 4 months.  I lost 54 pounds in total and my fat mass went from 74.6 to 38.4%. (loss of 36.2 in fat loss alone- this number may be higher now because I continued to lose weight without having my fat analysis done again)  What I am most excited about is my arms. NOTHING I did ever touched my arms and now I LOVE them.  I can finally wear sleeveless clothing and not be self conscious.  I lost 3.5 inches from EACH arm.  (I lost 5.5 inches from my high waist, 8.5 inches from my umbilicus, 9.5 inches from my hips, and 5 inches from EACH thigh).

​It was slightly difficult in the beginning but that was only until I found my target HCG number.  I felt great while taking it and never had a negative side effect.  I actually felt energized.​

I went from a size 12 to a size 4.  I stopped HCG in September and continued to lose another 10 or so pounds since then.  Now I am 136 pounds and have never looked or felt better.

It is worth every penny.  It is worth every hunger pang.  If you follow the program you will lose fat and inches.  NOTHING I have ever done over the years worked quite like this.  It works and you don’t gain the weight back because the fat is GONE.

If you have any questions or would like to speak with me further, feel free to contact me through Kristen; she has my contact information.

Kristen is very conscientious and great at what she does! The spa is amazing! They provide many great services with warm and welcoming service!

Kristen is Excellent! Very knowledgeable and makes you feel at ease while making you beautiful!

Amanda was absolutely wonderful to work with for microblading. She was so nice and made me feel very at ease. She constantly made sure I was comfortable. Her work is amazing! She took the extra time to make sure that my eye brows were perfect. They look so natural and she shaped them specifically to my bone structure and my face. Amanda is extremely knowledgeable. I am so happy with the outcome. Thank you so much Amanda for your help! I am enjoying my freedom from the eyebrow pencil! I will be telling everyone I know to go to Joli Medical Spa and to see Amanda!
