My Reading Room

Call me sceptical, but I’ve never thought of slimming treatments as effective. You may see results from a one-time treatment, but tend to gain the excess weight back after a week or two, especially if your lifestyle and diet remain the same (speaking from experience). However, Marie France’s latest programme, Treat, combines a customised slimming treatment with a nutrition programme for a more long-term solution. Before my Indiba radiofrequency (RF) treatment to target tummy flab, I was introduced to a nutritionist to work on a sustainable diet plan for more effective results. You will actually meet with your nutritionist weekly, to discuss your diet, exercise and sleeping habits (yes, they do play a part in weight gain) – these are monitored through a weekly log. The duration of your programme will also be customised according to your needs. I lost 1kg from the RF treatment and it’s been a week since, but I’m pretty sure I won’t gain back the weight – not with the nutritionist helping to keep an eye on my lifestyle habits.
