Review: Slim Couture Consulation

“Those sizing on the clothes we are wearing, are they indirectly labelling and judging as well? ”

Recently, those bloggers that I follow are raving about the wonders Slim Couture have done on them. Before signing up with them, I hope to find many more review before signing up. But sadly, all I found online is either bloggers(sponsored) or their own facebook page. Is there really no fail case? So, I decided to start writing about my Slim Couture journey. Does it really work like magic?

Personally, I have tried London Weight Management & of course, Bottomslim. They have celebrities, bloggers and so many advertisement swear that they work. It really helps one to slim down to the shape they want. Obviously, I am the one leave swearing at the money I wasted. Why?

London Weight Management & Bottomslim have one similarity that most customers will be nodding their head. HARD SELLING. During their trial session, the consultors will measure your weight and even height(London Weight Management). Then, they will either share their slimming story or just tell you straight in the face that everything about you are screaming the word 'FAT'. Next, they will try to sell you the package that are 'suitable' for you. When you said you have a budget constraints, a few thousand dollars package can be reduced to a few hundred.

So, does the slimming treatment I received at London Weight Management & Bottomslim works for me. NO. I know it works for some people, but it really didn't work its magic on me. The consultants will keep saying what I sign up for is not enough, and need me to sign for more session or other package. Sigh, I am not printing money la. Every time when weight in, if you lose a few gram, they claim credit. If you gain weight, they blame you for eating a lot and start to hard sell you treatment that assure you those weight lose won't bounce back. My expression is always..

So what makes me what to give another slimming centre a try? I saw the magic it did on the bloggers. One of them in particular (hint: she likes baking) really slim down a lot a lot. Then, I stalk their (Slim Couture) facebook. The magic they perform on others are simply magically and super transforming!


Their consultation process was similar to any other slimming centre. They weight you in, advice you your healthy weight and fat percentage for your age. For my case, when I told them my expected weight, they stared at me in shock and said it is easily achieve, just that my fat percentage is too too fat. I have already bought someone's leftover session (odd no.), so they recommend me to sign up for more session as their package is in multiple of 4. Actually, they are a little bit pushy with their sales la. Like they ask me to buy 4 session at first, I rejected them. They start to tell me about my fat percentage & health risk and insisting that they only sell their treatment in multiple of 4. Also, she keep highlighting that after 1st October, their session fee will increase $20 each. When I rejected them again, she suddenly said I can just sign up for 3 more session to make the sessions I have multiples of 4. Ok la, I bought extra 3 session.

My treatment will be starting soon. Hope they work their magic on me and make me one of their success story to inspire others.
