Singapore Slimming
Skinny is 'in' in Singapore. The ladies aspire to weigh 40kg, have tiny waists, arms and thighs. No fat bulge is tolerated. The lucky few can indulge in delicious, high-fat, high-carb Singapore cuisine and still remain stick thin. What's the rest to do?
An entire Wellness industry has sprouted up to cater to those who aspire to slim. From slimming centres to personal trainers to surgery. The options seem endless. Ultimately, the choice is dependent on self discipline, time and budget.
Commercial gyms and slimming centres can have very aggressive marketing tactics. Free or cheap trials can leave one much poorer. Many thousands poorer!
Commercial Gyms
If jogging solo is not your style, slogging it out in a commercial gym may be your best bet. With a range of activities in air conditioned comfort, you can work on your muscular strength and cardiovascular fitness either alone, under the watchful eye of a personal trainer, or in a class.
Some gym memberships are based on monthly subscriptions, others on term memberships with upfront payment.

Is A Hidden Food Intolerance Making You Fat?
The ALCAT Food Intolerance Test
The foods we perceive as healthy, such as lettuce, black pepper and chicken are common food substances we develop intolerances to. When consumed, the body does not metabolise the offending foods well, and the result could be the development of rashes, migraines or OBESITY!
The ALCAT food intolerance test looks at how each individual's blood reacts with 150 food types and 20 chemicals. Based on the strength of the reaction, the results determine how intolerant we are to the offending foods, and how long we should omit them from the diet.
Once the offending foods are eliminated, there is no calorie restriction on the remaining foods, and the weight falls off steadily. This process is expedited with a rotation diet and exercise regime.
