I had always been on the plump side since I was just a few months old.

Actually, ‘plump’ is an euphemism; I was plain obese from age 0 to 27. Even though the word ‘obese’ just means ‘very overweight’, I’ve come to hate this word intensely because it was branded on me since primary school and with it comes the image of me being grotesque-looking and unwanted by boys, sports teams and society.

(I’m not exaggerating, anyone who’s big-sized will know how difficult it is living in a world that idolizes thinness. Before Dorothy Perkins came along, how to find big-sized clothes?)

In my life, I have never thought that I would ever become slim. I’ve always been really lazy and it comes to a point when there was too much fat to fight. So I began telling myself that it’s alright to be fat, that I’m one of the ‘crusaders’ against this biased world. Sometimes I managed to convince myself.

However, I saw a friend (Angel, aka Wan Joo) lose 15kg in 2 months and I was really amazed. Wan Joo and I were colleagues and we were both not very confident of our looks. I remembered once when we were on the job in a night spot (we were reporters and covering a story about a pub launch), and we started chatting. The conversation came to the point about our clubbing experiences and I realized that we had the same experience of going to clubs, having men come up to talk to us only because they wanted to get to know the SLIM and pretty friend beside us.

Even after witnessing Wan Joo’s weight loss, I was still very cynical. And then before I knew it, Wan Joo helped another of our friends, Geok Hui, lose almost 10kg within one month. I was amazed and I decided that I should do something about it.

Someone I knew (who’s just a tad plumpish) said that she wouldn’t go lose weight because that would be like selling out to the idea that only thin girls are pretty. I agree, but because I was so very overweight, I realize being stubborn and remaining fat would only be detrimental to me and my health. I certainly wasn’t going to ‘自讨苦吃' (doing something that was going to harm myself anyway).

Plus, I was sick of the fact that people don’t see me for the person I am or do not even bother to try to get to know me better just because I was fat.

With Dreams Inc’s help, I did it. I finally lost 29kg and went from 85kg to 56kg! I am never happier and healthier!

With my new-found figure and new-found confidence, I have found someone who loves and appreciate me and we are getting ROM at the end of the year!

PS: I was watching an episode of Villa Wellness the other day and I realized that I have forgotten how it feels like to be fat. I am really thankful to Wan Joo and Dreams Inc.

Germaine- Lost 9kg In 1 Month!

Don’t you just envy people with flawless perfect skin and hour glass figure like Joey Wong (王祖贤)?

I did.

Even though my friends have nicknamed me ‘王祖贤’now, they would NEVER have done that in the past.

I got to know my fiancé Melvin since secondary school. By the time we got together in JC, I was starting to grow larger and larger in size. By 2002 at age 25, I was quite getting quite plump and not at all proud of it.

I wanted so badly to lose weight.
I want to look good and feel confident about myself. It didn’t help that Melvin was a little on the slim side and I so badly want to look good beside him too!

I tried very hard!
I tried very hard to cut down on my diet and went to gym. I went to gym religiously everyday, 6 days per week, 2 hours of strenous exercising, sweating all over.. but there was not much of a difference in my weight and shape.

And then I met Dreams Inc and its group of superheroes! They were friendly, helpful and most importantly, they all looked great! ‘Mr Incredible Maximus’ lost 8kg within 2 weeks and ‘Elastigal Angel’ lost 15kg within 2 months!

With their help, I lost 9kg within 1 month!
As I got slimmer, my skin also became smoother and more radiant! I got healthier and began to find that I am more energetic.

My friends started to comment that I am looking more and more beautiful and as a result, I became much more confident of myself than before!

Unlike my past efforts at weight loss, I have manage to maintain my weight and keep myself in tip top condition since 2002 until now.

Because of the wonderful results I have, I decided to join Dreams Inc and help more people and I am definitely enjoying every minute of it!

Our dream is to build a whole team of handsome and beautiful superheroes!

Angel- Lost 15kg within 2 MONTHS

I was an entertainment reporter and was always around beautiful men and beautiful women. I really envied them and wanted to be like them too.

Alas, I was plump.

When I talked to a particular artiste manager one day and jokingly told her that I would like to become an artiste under her, she looked at me incredulously and said, “You? Lose another 20kg then come and talk to me lah..” Though it was meant as a joke. It hurt me terribly.

I just couldn’t lose the weight!
At my heaviest, I was 75kg on a 165cm frame. Despite trying to lose weight using my different methods (dieting, exercising and even tying strings around my fingers), I found that whenever I stopped doing it, my weight would bounce back fast and I would become fatter than I was when I started out.

Things got really bad when one day, while going out on an assignment with a colleague, an aunty who was sitting beside me pointed to her and asked me, “Your daughter ah?”

Finally, I met a few good mentors who taught me a great way to slim down healthily and naturally.

I lost 15kg in 2 months;
From 70kg, I became 55kg.
From an XL, I became an S/M
From size 14, I dropped to size 8

And I gained a lot more..
Better health,
Better skin
More vitality
More radiance
More confidence
A chance to help more people become like me!

The beauty of it is that I maintained at this weight range for the past 3 years look younger and sexier!

Using the methods that Dreams Inc is currently propagating, I also managed to find a very loving husband and am now happily married with one child.
