[Health Product Review] Expressions Detox Health Kit

Being skinny is never happen in my life ever, perhaps is only happen during my pre-puberty. Started to keep on growing during teenager until i have a whooping weight 60kg plus. Back then i feel so ashamed about myself then journey of never ending diet started. Well until now i can say i have go thru very hard time maintaining my weight.

3 years ago my weight drop into the lowest 50kg, but that wasn’t the end. Few year later it started to come back especially when i always going for my trip. A trip back to my hometown or any other part of my country made it worst, i was so greedy on eating. My goal is to try new foods at town and of course had all my favourite foods as much as possible. I tell you what! Indonesian foods are very tasty and fatty. Worst! I love a lot of fried stuff..

My weight before holiday is 54kg on scale, after holiday is 56kg.

Was disappointed and depress why i need to struggle with my weight again. Then i tried to brave myself to embrace the healthy eating again. Somehow i can be very health conscious. I always try to like healthy stuff, but sometimes ended back to those unhealthy habit (pardon, couldn’t resist myself!). Well at least i am still supporting healthy living.

First trial is Detox Health Kit from Expressions. So i started my detox journey a week ago. At first my consultant said it’s only for 3 days. I quickly said ok, when I was strongly discouraged from consuming and have to consume 4 litre water daily for 3 days consecutively.

Visited their branch at Orchard. On Expressions Wellness Clinique, they took down my weight, BMI, body fat, muscular fat, VFA Level, and my body age.

Well actually everything is still ok, except the body fat percentage which is pretty high. T.T oh my, was wondering where are those fats coming from.

So the next day, i started the detox. I had salad and fruits for 3days. After 3 days detox, i feel my body feel lighter. Somehow, the detox concoction made from maple syrup from Detox Kit mixed with 2 lemons and 1.5lt water gave me energy, i don’t feel hungry at all.

Was having Wheat Bran & Psyllium as well as Formula C and Formula D as part of detox kit.

Maple syrup is actually so yummy!

Those pills: Wheat Bran & Psyllium, Formula C and Formula D.

On 4th i prefer something light, only had yogurt and porridge. Came to Expressions Wellness Clinique to see how is the detox progress. And the result not that significant, perhaps because i still eat protein (i was having chicken on my salad), so the consultant said by right i should avoid it and had more veggies and fruits.

She also told me result might be varies, depend on customer body metabolism. Then the consultant suggested me to do another 3 days detox. Again, i was having salad and fruits, 1.5lt distilled mixed with lemon and pure maple syrup from detox kit, and another 2.5ltr warm water for my daily consumptions for 3days.

After my second 3days detox, on the 4th day again i made a visit to Expressions Wellness Clinique to check my weight, body fat, etc, finally the result was pretty significant, as you can see from the comparison table. My weight reduced, body fat and VFA reduced, in fact my body muscle increased (even tho i never done any exercise, too weak to do any). And my body age much younger than my real age, yay!

So that was my total 6days detox journey. I feel that eating right and being healthy is the continuous journey whole life not only for certain period. So after this detox progress i should still maintain by not over-eating, eat more clean and of course exercise plays a big part too. 🙂
