I am very sceptical when it comes to beauty salon claiming that they are able to help customers on this and that online. The next thing you know, they will ask you to add money for this and that when you are there, yet we did not quite get the result as we expected or at least what they claimed to achieve. I believe many of us have such experience to rant about. That's when reviews and doing your research before your purchase are important.
For those who knows me, I am obsess with anything that relates to beauty. (Which girl doesn't want to be beautiful right? hehe). Basically from hair to face to body to nail to whatever you can think off. Recently have been putting on some weight that previously I have shed (Arghhh... NOOOOOO!!..) Is so annoying to see all the love handles, spare tyre and pig trotters bloating like a balloon and as if I am exploding any time if I don't do something about it. That's when I decided to go on diet and Google for more alternatives to assist me to achieve a better result sooner but in a safe way.
After much research, I decided to try out the treatments from
Slim Couture.
I have read a lot of good reviews and from bloggers. The result is amazing and unbelievable. When I was there for consultation, TBH I am still quite sceptical and is ready to reject any hard selling package. To my surprise, they not only didn't hard sell but helped me to work something out from my budget. The staff makes me feel really comfortable and encouraged. My treatments are schedule every Wednesday and Sunday per week and only after 8 session is known as a complete cycle for treatment. I have sign up for 24 sessions and done my first session on 10th Oct 2015 (Saturday). I cant wait to see the result and I will update in here after the package that I am having which will last me till end of December 2015.
There is a suggested diet plan that I have to follow.
Breakfast (choose either one below):
- 2 slices of plain wholemeal bread (no spread)
- 2 egg whites
- Fruits - Papaya, Dragon fruit
Consume cherry tomatoes 1-2hours after breakfast.
Lunch (choose either one below):
- Yong Tau Foo (no processed food, cannot drink the soup)
- Fish Soup (cannot drink the soup)
- Green vegetables, mushrooms, chicken (without skin), fish (no salmon, eel and codfish)
- Fruits - Papaya, Dragon fruit, Kiwi, Strawberries (either 2)
Consume cherry tomatoes 1-2hours after lunch.
Dinner (choose either one below):
- Green vegetables, mushrooms, salad
- Fruits - Papaya, Dragon fruit, Kiwi, Strawberries (either 2)
Here is the list of
'NO' food to avoid during this period:
01) NO one seeded fruit (eg durian, mango, lychee, logan, etc)
02) NO soup
03) NO fruit juice
04) NO codfish, salmon, eel
05) NO seafood
06) NO fried food
07) NO red meat (eg beef, pork)
08) NO egg yolk
09) NO carbohydrates (eg rice, pasta, mee, potato)
10) NO carbonated drinks
11) NO alcohol
12) NO supplements (unless for medical reason)
13) NO hardcore exercise
14) NO greentea, milo, coffee, hot chocolate
15) NO chocolates, sweets, pastries
16) NO nuts (eg almond, pistachios)
17) NO sesame seeds
18) NO dairy product (eg milk, yogurt, cheese)
19) NO oatmeal
20) NO herbal tea
21) NO sambal chilli
22) NO mock meat
List goes on. Just have to check with them if I am unsure of some food.
Things to take note:
1) No sauce except balsamic vinegar and olive oil.
2) Garlic, onion, ginger, fresh chilli is fine for cooking.
3) I should feel 70%-80% full for every meal
4) Hydrate with lots of water. Min 2L (I am taking at least 4L. It varies from individual)
5) Target at least 1 box of cherry tomato each day. To be consume as snacks. (TBH I feel nauseous after 2 weeks)
6) Sleep early and rest when your body tells you
7) Refrain frim caffeinated drink. (need to drink another 4cups of water to replenish the body)
It's going to be a hard journey. But thinking about the future for my kids. I have to endure to have a good body internally and externally (is of course for my own eyes to see). I cant wait to see the result after 24 sessions..
*Measurements taken from each session will be shown soon:) Stay tune...!
