I am overweight & weigh around 89 kgs. I have been to every so called weight loss clinic where they claim that they you would make you lose 5 kgs in 24 hrs* or 8 kgs in 3 weeks.
After paying thousands of rupees they told me to change my diet, ( eat cucumbers, avoid oil fats and possibly every item on my diet list) make a regular schedule where in I was given tummy tucks? I still don’t understand what it is.
And is it of any value. If I couldn’t make it in time I was told that I am not regular and would not loose weight, no provisions were made to adjust sessions as per my time. I was given some cream to apply on my fat areas and then vibrations were given which were supposed to make me loose weight. They said I would sweat from those areas and I would lose weight.
I did sweat and surprisingly did lose 0.8 kgs but when I returned after 2 days my weight was back to normal. I asked them for an explanation but they couldn’t give any. All the attendants are mere fresher young girls who have no knowledge of our body or health. I consulted my doctor in this regards and he explained that what I lost was sweat( not fat). When body is heated it tries to maintain its temperature by sweating. During this process water from the skin below is lost which is bound to be regained within a day or two.
So where was the fat los as claimed! I was assured a guarantee, but they never attend you once your sessions are over. By the end I never lost even a single kg. Daily I had to visit their place wait for 20-30 minutes then attend their 15 minute sessions. Tummy tuck, spot reduction are some of the terminologies they have devised to fool the people. You go anywhere they all talk in the same manner and the same stuff. All they have are useless machines with incapable staff with no medical background. I pity myself how could I fall prey to such nonsense business tactics. I would say consult a doctor who understands your body, dont ever think of mechanical means to lose weight which make you sweat. Because sweating doesn’t mean fat loss.
