Slimming Programs

Flipping through the newspapers, since i started reading them, i can't help but notice, no, no, STARE at those adds with before and astonishing after pictures. I hate them! I mean, what's wrong with being who u are? Why do girls have to be skin, bones and straightened hair to be pretty? Whats wrong with the way i am? I am in shape, round is a shape!

Actually... i'm triangle... haha, u know bottom heavy? I am what those beauty magazines consider an A type figure. No, this isn't education, A isn't good. X is good. An A type figure girls is a girl with... to put it simply, A means u have skinny to normal arms, no boobs and a fat ass.

Which is exactly what i am. I wore a low cut top yesterday and i couldn't help but stare at my chest and say "i'm soooo thin". U can see my stupid ribs and no longkang.

But i'm NOT thin. My body just allocates all the fat to my thighs, stupid.

So, the other day, my mom brought me to Midvalley for a promotion with this slimming centre, apparently u pay 18bucks for a trial and a consultation. Man, i hate the consultation, that's where they ask u to strip(of course undies are kept on) and point out all your imperfections.

Like i said, i'm an A, so i'm bottom heavy and my arms are normal... i like my arms. But to them my arms are fat. !?!? Hello! If u say my ass is huge i'd understand u but my arms are fat??? Go to bloody hell.

Then they pulled my biceps a certain way to make my arms look thinner and said i'm supposed to look that way. Come on, if my arms looks that way i look anorexic!

In the consultation they explained this, that and that, then they don't just give u a price. They ask u what your budget is. I crapped, i said my budget is RM300 to maybe RM500. And guess what?? Their cheapest price ever, which is also their student price, since it old them i don't have a part time job, is RM500, are u surprised?

Stupid smart marketing woman!

Then they find ways to use your words against u. They'll ask, if not for the price, do u think this package is worth it? And u know, it comes to the point when u are so fed up with them, u'd just say yes?

Then they've got u. They introduce some instalment payment plan, u pay how much first and then how much later since the u agreed the 'package is worth it'.

Since i wouldn't part with my savings, she tried a new strategy, she asked... if your mom pays for u do u think its worth it?? Only one thought went through my mind, she's gonna use my answer against my mom.

Bitches!! And they gurantee u 2-8 cm loss in your trial session. And yeah, i lost 7.1cm or something like that. Sounds good huh? To lose 7cm off your waist just like that in 35minutes??

But it's nothing when u know their trick. They measure each thigh at three parts... u know once near your knee, one more time mid thigh and then near the butt. Then they measure ur butt. Then hips, waist. Upper waist. And then just below the bust. And of course both my arms.

So after the trial they remeasure everything, they took so long! So even if u just lose 0.3cm here and there, it adds up. Which means i hardly lost anything.

The old fashion way to getting a better body is still exercise... i'll be going jogging after this...

Actually, exercise isn't the best. Because u can't choose which part of your body's fats u want to burn. Example: Hillary Swank, the star of Million Dollar Baby lost a cup size after all her preparations to play the role of a boxer. Get what i mean?
