as for stars endorsing this and that centre is not a good reason bcos of the following:
1) They are stars, their treatment as the more expensive
2) They are treated free of charge so they can become walking advertisement
3) They are already slim in most cases...ask them to slim down moses lim lah!
4) As long as you are willing to pay $$$, they sure can give you the same effect /outcome the stars have become
hahaha...
Ya money talks! No wonder those beauticians so damn rich! -
actually, i wanna ask...

anorexic? so exaggerating? but then..those stars are also very well paid for all those advertisements wor. can earn money and stay pretty, why not? But it has become so common lor..10 fingers also not enough to count ba. -
yah what.. the Fann Wong looks like she's a stick... still say she "lose weight" and all that...

Anyway..anything she endorse in, I wun purchase!

and christy chung? yes she is.. but heck.. they have the time and money to be like that..

well..that's the difference between rich and 'not-so-rich'.
You hurt your spine? Slip disc? What caused it? NS? -
I'm a serious sportsperson and I'm still very skeptical about slimming pills, ointments, treatments, etc.Originally posted by smudgey:Hey ppl I'm sort of in the market for slimming packages.... I'm not obese, just a little overly chubby
Anyways I went looking ard for some slimming packages in the various slimming centres...
Anyways, I was wondering if there's anyone here who have tried and found it effective, maintainable and economical....
Please advise on what kind of treatment are effective and which slimming centres u have tried....
I think the only way is what the Bear said - to exercise and eat sensibly, which is what I live on (but I exercise like a mad dog, enough to scare even some of our national athletes......from 1 to 3 hours per day everyday, so don't follow my example).
I'm gonna give an out of point but related answer.....instead of spending all the money and hopes on slimming medication and treatment, join a town gym instead (S$700-1000 per year). Lots of chances to see hunky/sexy bodies and meet the opposite sex somemore! -
yah.. 2nd time on the same place...
1st time is 1st reservist IPPT..
this time is (you won't believe this!) i blew my nose too hardOriginally posted by browniebaobao:

OMG! So serious ar? blow nose also so jialat.
Must take very good care hor. Injury on spine is no joke. -
$700-1000 per year is OK mah.....compared with what some people pay for slimming packages which last only a few sessions ($2000).Originally posted by browniebaobao:

If you paid $700-1000, you will surely try to go often
No lah, I go to the gym to let others see my body -
yeah.. i am.. going to a chiropractor to fix my back
well, since the back was already weakened, violent blowing of the nose kinda blew out the backOriginally posted by browniebaobao:

I never give slimming adverts any attention. They don't deserve it.
Don't care about what Fann Wong, Michelle Chia and so on say.... slimming pills are simply no good for you. I remember one of those ads claiming that it can absorb 2200 calories of carbohydrates a day. Sounds good? NO.
Check the food pyramid; you'll realise that carbs make up the great bulk of your daily energy intake. In other words, you'll be starving yourself slowly by taking those pills. It's anorexia on the installment plan.
Oh yes, this means that the low-carb, high-protein Atkins Diet is out as well.
Just listen to what most nutritionists and physicians would say: eat a well-balanced diet and regular exercise. You don't even have to sign up for expensive gym memberships; why not just go jogging regularly in the park? It helps to burn fat, tone your muscles, improve your blood circulation, and promote the release of feel-good hormones (leading to the 'runners' high).
Best of all, it costs nothing. -

I guess the reason I'm looking to slimming packages is that I've been exercising for more than a year....
not intense ones twice a week and so far have seen 0 effect.... an intensive exercise prog is effective for a while but hard to maintain!!!
And I can never stop my mouth.... I tried to eat less at night but still like that!!!!
I'm here hoping to find some ppl who tried effective slimming packages.....
Heard bodycontours is good.... -
There are some things you have to realise....Originally posted by smudgey:I guess the reason I'm looking to slimming packages is that I've been exercising for more than a year....

Heard bodycontours is good....
(1) There are some people who are genetically large. I know a few of these people....no matter how much physical activity they go through, they will still be large, unless thay starve themselves (which is something I DON'T recommend). Anyway, I doubt that this is your case.
(2) You wrote that you're a snacker. If you continue to eat the way you, it will be no different if you exercise or go for slimming sessions. Because whatever positive effects you get from exercise or slimming sessions.....will be destroyed by your eating habits.
I hear many people claiming that they exercise, but can't slim down. This can be due to several reasons (including snacking). But I suspect that your exercise method may be ineffective as well (twice a week is too infrequent too).
Um....if you're still just interested in slimming packages, then I'll be totally out of point here.
But if you wanna go back to basics and examine why your exercises don't work, perhaps you could give details of how you exercise.....and we'll try to figure out something (no promises, but we'll try). -
Hi,
I have tried so many ways but it doesnt seem to work. Until recently a friend introduce me to a weight management program. Popping up few pills as a meal replacement and in 2 weeks i have seen result.It is not a weight loss program but jus a meal replacement you get all the required protein,calcium and fibre in it. The best you can still take your favourite satay and hokkien mee.Originally posted by smudgey:Hey ppl I'm sort of in the market for slimming packages.... I'm not obese, just a little overly chubby

Please advise on what kind of treatment are effective and which slimming centres u have tried.... -
That's actually why I'm here, I wanna see if there's anyone here who have tried such slimming packages if it works, what's it's procedures. and if it's more difficult than usual to maintain...Originally posted by Devil1976:Even if a slimming centre is efficient in its application, it'll still take much maintenance on one's own after the treatments... Personally, I'll advise going for long-term ones then short terms one... And YOUR HEALTH should be a critical factor to look into throughout the process... Ask friends for GENUINE CASES and feedbacks from them... When you find MUCH DISCOMFORT in the process, though you might just thought of biting your teeth and go on.. ALWAYS ask for PROFESSIONAL's ADVICE. -
How about Detoxing??? how is it done? how often? is it like taking pills to detox? any to recommand?
And have anyone here used pills to 1) reduce fat intake in food, 2) enhance metabolism so as to get maximium out of ur workout???

Actually slimming pills and such are only temporary chemical relief.
They usually results in what nutritionists called the yoyo effect.
Just get healthy diet and have some exercises.
Even skinny people also need to watch their diet. -
i have to say that what work for A may not work for B.Originally posted by smudgey:That's actually why I'm here, I wanna see if there's anyone here who have tried such slimming packages if it works, what's it's procedures. and if it's more difficult than usual to maintain...
