slimming program comes to an end

today i went for the last of slimming program.

end result after 3 weeks :
- weight loss of 2.5kg
- fat mass loss of 2.2kg
- inch loss of average 1.5 inches overall (hips, thighs and tummy)
- better bowel movement
- cellulite reduction (not visibly dimpled unless stretched)
- smaller appetite
- no craving for 扣肉 anymore!

in summary, i'd never want to step into a slimming centre ever again. the hot fat burn cream and cold menthol wrap were not pleasant. money would be better spent on spa and massages!

update on slimming and new addition

they say "a picture is worth a thousand words"

so i managed to take a picture that updates both my slimming progress and that of xena.

are you ready....

update on slimming program

tada....

original weight : 63kg
weight after 1 week : 61kg

not bad not bad... i know what everyone will say, it's probably water loss. however, i only did 1 session of hot blanket wrap (where you sweat out water and toxins). the rest were grueling fat burn cream and cellulite machine treatments (suction cups sucking on surface of skin).

the weighing machine (i dont know what the official name is, but these can measure your fat amount, BMI and water amount) said i lost 2 kg of fat (i think it's not relative weight), and my water weight actually went up (i am drinking more water and taking fruits, etc).

good news is, i have got over my 扣肉 withdrawal! in fact, now i crave for more fruits than fatty and oily stuff.

it also helped that i have to keep a food journal, which the consultant will review for me.

maybe there is hope to stick to the healthy diet afterall.

ps however, there were times i cheated, like yesterday, office had many many croissants from a hotel. i actually pigged out and felt very very guilty afterwards :(

side effects of slimming

i.actually.am.eating.healthier.

ok, i know i am very 贱, but i simply have no discipline!

i lurve 扣肉 and the likes, friends "donate" their chicken skin during meals, i lurve all the unhealthy food.

did i mention i dont eat fruits? (yes, even if they're sliced very nicely and arranged on a plate and served to me)

till now. pay so much better make sure see some effect mah.

diet now :- fruits for breakfast
apple, tofu, fybogel before lunch and dinner
no fried stuff, no skin, no 扣肉 , no canned drink

thankfully, this is only for the duration of the slimming treatment.

want me to eat like that for the rest of my life, can die ah..

but, having said that, i definitely do not want to put myself through the fat burning sessions (hot, hot, hot!). therefore, next time, only once a week for 扣肉 , dunno can or not?

luckily, my new company actually has a gym onsite! yay! no excuse not to exercise liao. but never say never... humans are known to give excuses, terrible ones.

so... just keep checking back this blog to see if ksn will really defy all lazy bones in her body to exercise or not lah.

comments on treatment

torture!

after this slimming program, i will 乖乖 stick to a sensible diet and exercise regularly.

kxbc was right in saying they shrink-wrap people up. but he didnt mention that beneath the shrink wrap is a thick layer of fat burning cream that is very hot!

luckily, after the wrap is cut out (fortunately, there is no hard sell in the place i signed up with), my skin returned back to normal in no time.

well, you know what they say, no pain no gain.

i barely made it through the 1st session. after today's 2nd session, i will post some details of the process.

i've got january packed full of stuff - part i

gulp... i signed up for a... gulp... slimming package!

well, the story goes like this, last weekend i was in orchard trying to shop for new work clothes. i couldnt fit into a size 40, and 42 was a barely good fit! i am like, "i am going to run out of pants to buy!"

without any hesitation, i went to the slimming centre which my colleague is having her treatments at, and of course i didnt get conned into buying expensive packages.

i knew exactly what i wanted, to get rid of fats in the deadly zone : tummy, hips and thighs.

i paid $1200 for 7 sessions that specifically target my deadly zone, get rid of fats and also reduce the cellulite. and hopefully i can fit into a size 40 or even 38 once more

for those who are interested, i will be posting progress reports on my blog...
