j my opinion: call me a wet blanket …

u can call me a wet blanket or wtv but here’s rlly j my v honest thoughts after reading/ hearing so many people on this prog

❓ 90 days prog

🤔 claim that u will lose weight

💰 < $3000

I was reading this lemon8 girl documenting her weight loss journey and honestly I was having lots of mixed feelings

😌😌😌 happy for her 😌😌😌

— close to her desired weight

— shed off waist, hip, abdomen cm

but at the same time … 😕😕😕

i feel so stressful reading & also pondering if she …

— is enjoying the process

— feels controlled everywhere she goes

— feels stress weekly doing her measurements

— feels the need to compare herself and the “other success stories” in this prog

— most imptly, is it sustainable AFTER the 90 days

apart from these ^ I was also thinking,

what are the “weight” that she was losing

↳ fat loss? ↳ water loss? ↳ muscle loss?

or perhaps, a combination of all

————————————

dont get me wrong, I do feel happy for her seeing her progress

but … she is not celebrating her progress enough instead, stressing over the ultimate results at the end of 90 days, bringing up her cortisol level

————————————

to be fair, I did not go through the 90days program & perhaps u can call me a sour grape, hmm, for not willing to part my $$ to be on board 👀

‼️ but I almost did this program ‼️

so here’s a tldr of what the sales person pitch it to me:

❓ so what is this program ❓

✅ weight loss if you follow closely what u suppose to do

✅ zero exercise

✅ no rebound

what u are suppose to do:

(which didn’t sit well with me)

👀 replace 1 meal with protein shake (meal-replacement shakes) - NOT HSA/ FDA APPROVED!!!!!

👀 eat lesser

👀 cut carbs

👀 supplements (?) - can’t rmb it in his sales pitch

& I can’t believe he (as a former pt) said that that “exercise is optional” but if u want to shed more or look tone, “you can exercise”

I did not join the prog bcos,

1️⃣ I was pressured to the attend the sales pitch

2️⃣ it was too salesy

3️⃣ I’m a big believer of “there’s no shortcut”

☝️ anyway, this is a story for another day

————————————

do I know of people who successfully completed the prog❓

yes, after a long time of not seeing them, my first thought was

‼️ WOW ARE U OKAY ‼️

but of cos, I didn’t say that.

they (its a family) LOST A LOT of weight but it doesn’t look like a healthy weight loss - it’s a stick thin kind of weight loss, kinda scary imo, there’s

🥲 no glow

🥲 looks sick

🥲 looks fragile

& even after the 90 days, they are still skipping a meal

j think about it, skipping a meal = cutting down cals, NATURALLY YOU WILL LOSE WEIGHT

do you rlly need someone or spend so much $$ for someone to tell u to skip a meal?

I mean, not everyone in this 90days programme turns out like that but if u are one of them that becomes a stick-thin, that constantly looks sick, do u rlly feel good about yourself?

ok that’s a lot of negativity in 1 post.

I’m j thrashing it out here bcos i rlly genuinely believe that there is 👏 no 👏 short 👏 cut 👏 in 👏 life 👏

alrighto,

thats about it,

I hope everyone could starts small somewhere,

maybe 10k steps a day,

till then,
