Further Lost of 0.5kg!~ 26th Feb 2010

Total 4kg Lost in 23 days! From 3rd Feb to 25th Feb... A short span of 23 days.... less than a month, I did it! I did it!

As I was posting yesterday on how shocked I was to lose the 0.5kg, this morning, I weigh myself...Another 0.5kg lost! HAHAHA

This is something which puzzles me... Is the tea so powerful? Issit the Cell-U-Loss? Or a combination of both? The meal replacement I doubt so, maybe it reduce the no of calorie I am consuming... The Aloe Vera drink I tink it only helps to cleanse the internal....

So most likely is the tea and Cell-U-Loss... Even Benji also commented how come the ingredients seems so natural and ordinary and yet the weight loss can be achieved?

Out of curiosity, I took out the brochure and started reading .... Seems like the set I am taking now, cleanse my internal (stomach, soothe the digestive system), curb craving, burn fat, full of vitamins...NOTHING? weird...then how i lost that 4kg? As blogged previously, I didnt give up my lunch and dinner.... Only the first week I was super on, to have 2 meals of shake...but subsequently... I gave in to the food... Junk food was reduced but... I occassionally willl still snack abit...

Hmmmm...As I was reading the brochure, I was tempted to try the night cream(since I run out of night cream duno since when).....the scrub (I also run out of scrub.....)

Maybe will get this 2 items to try! Well... No wonder pple keep saying "Thanks to herbalife...." Well... I really need to repeat this too...

It is a MIRACLE!

herbal life slimming programme - Day 1- 3 Feb 2010

I must be desperate and crazy!I finally resort to such means to slim down! Never see myself in this situation.. But i must say that I am desperate!
My weight keep shooting up, no matter how hard i exercise... Seems like muscle is realli heavier than fats...and I hate to see myself getting fatter and fatter!

So... I went to get this set of slimming products... consisting of aloe vera drink, 3 caps mixed with 120ml of water, drink in the morning and nitetime.
then i got to gulp down 3litre of water(2 litre the detox tea and 1 litre plain water)... yes...3 litre...never in my whole life have i ever force myself to drink more than 1 litre of water!!!
then come the milkshake.... this is a meal replacement which i have to replace 1 or 2 of my meals....

I chose 2 meals to see results faster...its abit er xin..if u didnt mixed the drink well... my first attempt the powder was abit lumpy and i had a hard time drinking it...almost vomit...
then nite time i use spoon to stir... slightly better...
then also have this pill to take before each meal...hai....


But i am happy that I lost 1.5kg after 1st day!!! woohooo!
