Hi Penny, came across your blog when i was reading up on news of my favourite artiste from HongKong – Christy Chung. Interesting thread on the fat photos. I believe most consumers would ask the same questions before they step into any beauty centre. “Does it really work?”

I believe these treatments do, to a large extent. What affects the final results, however there are other factors that are not within the control of the treatments. One’s diet, stress levels( yes, those can make you you gain weight too), lack of sleep, lack of hydration, genes etc.

Thus it is not realistic for anyone to step into a centre, pay up for a package and expect miraculous results. What Christy Chung experienced is probably true , but i think she coupled it with a very strict diet, which she shared with the media. ( and she really does look very slim and radiant in the most recent Yahoo! news interview indeed )

It’s never easy to lose weight or put the bounce back to ones’ skin. So for anyone who has the determination, help the treatments work with you and work for you. And aim for long term, meaning go slow and steady with a proper diet, and not a sudden cutting down of intake coz this is defintely not sustainable!

Amy, you’re right, breastfeeding has really helped lots of mothers gain back their shapely figure in a short time. Hmm…I think these kinds of slimming centers are all out to make money anyhow they can, so even if you’re the perfect figure, they’ll find fault some where!

Evelyne, you, plump?! Where??! See, they would just say and do anything to make you feel lousy about yourself. Glad you walked out of there without parting with good money!

Yeah, I tried asking them for a “quotation” to slim down for my wedding, apparently, I have skinny legs that is not proprtionate with my plump body. (I was 47kg’s then). So they told me to put a 10% downpayment for a slimming session, which concentrates on my upper body. It was for 10 sessions, RM4250.
I walked out of there saying Id think about it. They were not happy.

If you’re breastfeeding and looking after your little one with no help, you too can get the slim sexy body. Who needs Marie France.. hahaha

BTW, I went once before I got married (some free consultation thingy) and they examined my body and said I need to slim down my thighs. They were too fat for my body. They nicely told me they’re giving me a good deal which is RM2000 for 10 sessions (just for the thighs). Scary or not..And of course I didn’t contribute to their already very fat bank account.
