Review: Slim Couture

我毕业了! 

I have graduated!

Let me show off my result!

I know not very impressive if you compare with those people on Slim Couture's FB that lost more than 10kg in just 12 session. They spoil market hor! But my bad, I cheat on my diet during weekends. How can I resist those seductive chicken wings and tempting chocolate bar?! Joke aside~ To me, the result is quite impressive. The last time I was 50kg is when I am in Primary 5. So, imagine the look on my face when I finally reach my targeted weight. Some fairies in Slim Couture told me I can be lighter! Like 48 or 49kg?! That will be my Primary 3-4 weight leh! 

This Chinese New Year was the best. The look on everyone's face is ..

All my relatives and friends really do the action above ↑.

Whenever my relative see me, they praise me in front of my mum and the smirk on her face! Actually, this is also the look on my face when people praise me la~ 

Here are some questions that you guys asked me via email, I will answer them here again.
* Questions will be in Underlined & Italic.

Geena Ginger will answer all your questions! Muahahaha! 

Are you sponsored or bribed to write all this review? No!

How many sessions did you sign up and at which outlet?
Bought 13 sessions from someone else, then 3 more session from Slim Couture at Singapore Shopping Centre (Dhoby Ghaut).

After consultation, how long did you wait before you start your treatment?
I don't really remember, but should be about 1-2 months.

Those expensive lotion you mentioned in your previous post are they compulsory and roughly how much? Do they work?
I am not expert. But I did some experiment like one week I will apply the lotion and one week I won't to see the differences. Yes, it did increase by a bit as compared to the week that I didn't apply the lotion. But it could be due to my diet as well.

Maybe those weight you lose are just water retention?
Maybe. As long as my weight don't bounce back to 51kg, I don't care is it water retention or what. I am happy with my weight now :)

The crazy diet! How did you survive? Can you even eat outside? Can you even go out with friends?!
This diet... I don't know how I survive. Everyday I eat outside. Eg. Chicken Rice without rice and Mixed Veggie Rice without rice 1 Fish, 1 Steamed Egg, 1 Egg Tofu. I still go out with my friends every week! It is a must!! I will just order those dishes without rice. So, can you guess what is the first thing I did when I finish all my session? This picture pretty much sum it all up! ↓

I am glad that I went to Slim Couture. Thanks to all those bloggers that write review about it. And of course, those fairies from Slim Couture for performing those magic on me.

❤❤❤ Slim Couture's 女神们, 谢谢你们的用心良苦! 爱死你们了❤❤❤

Review: Slim Couture

Hmm... How should I start this post?

Well..

I am a happy customer of Slim Couture. 

Wait, am I too straightforward? Anyway, all my post about Slim Couture are not sponsored or whatsoever. Have no regrets spending so much money on their treatment. Oh wait, there is only one regret. Why didn't I know about them earlier and wasted so much money on other slimming centre?! 

Ever since I started working, my weight have been increasing. To be exact, from 53kg to 65kg! Damn all the snacks and pineapples tart Working in office is good, have fixed pay, fixed working hours and also, bigger hip/thigh/lower body! Imagine a bottom heavy person like me have even heavier bottom! Sigh All those slimming centre that promise result after 1 session have cheated my feeling so many time. First, they pour you a glass of water to drink so you will weight slightly heavier before you start the treatment. Then after the treatment, they will ask you to go pee or what and they weight you WAALA~ a slimmer you!

To me, Slim Couture must be some magical fairy wearing white! After completing 11 session with them, I am finally a few step nearer to my ideal weight of 50kg. I weight around 58~59kg when I just started. And now, I am at my lightest weight 51~52kg.

Am I happy with my result? Of course. I feel that I made a right choice going to them. Even though I stopped going to the session for about a month+ to prepare for my exam, my weight didn't bounce back. In fact, it even dropped! It could be because I am stressed or the fairy dust is still working its magic that I am not sure. Now, I stopped my treatment again for work commitment. My weight is still maintaining around the 51~52kg range. Going to Bangkok soon before I continue my last 5 session. Hope my weight won't shot up in this food paradise.

So how is the session like? Basically, they weight and measure you every session without fail. Photos will be taken at the start of your 1st session, so that you can look at those lumps on your body without lying to myself. Well, I always lie to myself when I am in the changing room in front of the full mirror. The dress is the one making me fat and ugly, not me of course! When I see the photos they took, I know my problem area. Lucky for us, Slim Couture offer full body slimming for beginners and maintenance session is the targeted area slimming. After all the weighting and measuring, that's the pain part. I have tried Guasha and Cupping at TCM before, but this is nothing like it. After doing so many sessions, the pain is still there. Expect yourself to flinch or scream. =S

What is my favourite part of the treatment? The measuring and weighting part! I am a number-conscious kind of person. Everyday I weight myself at least twice, I know this behaviour is unhealthy. Very unhealthy. Being called fat by others, make me very conscious about my weight. But I forget no one bother to ask about my weight, they judge me as soon as they lay their eyes on me. Also, the staffs/consultants/fairies are super friendly and always giving me extra tips to maintain my weight. When I fall sick, they even tell me which home remedy will cure it! Where to find such attentive people.  

What don't I like? To be very very very honest, the staffs/consultants when I just started the treatment. They treated this slimming treatment like a test. As a part-time student, I am really stressed out by the way they comment on my weight and diet. It really feel like those marked presentation exam. They start to grill you to find out what you eat and why I didn't lose more weight. But after 3rd session, they are super friendly and offer so many good advices to me. I think they just want us to lose more weight, so that we can benefit more from the treatment la. Hmmm, the cupping marking. It is really dark and ugly at the start of the treatment, super contrasting against my fair skin! I keep asking myself why must I suffer so much both physically and mentally! But now, I am more used to the marking and it is lighter that before. Now I really enjoy my slimming progress! The staff are now fairies and guasha/cupping are fairy dust to me!

Any other things to look out for? Please be prepared to spend a lot of money on those lotion. Also, their diet plan is very strict. I didn't follow 100% (about ~90%) and look at the weight I shed!

Will I continue the treatment? I will, but not now. Study and work are occupying too much of my time. Maybe during June or December again during my school break.

There is a saying,"No Pain, No Gain". But for this case, it is

"No Pain, No Lose weight!".

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.
