Months ago, I posted this on my Instagram:

It was my weigh-in moment, right before I started using the My Slim Dietary Supplement and My Slim Yerba Mate Drink. Endorsed by none other than FHM’s Sexiest, Jennylyn Mercado, I had such high expectations. Granted I was supplied products for a month’s use, I assumed that I would be able to lose pounds quickly as I have also read rave reviews with results in just two weeks, some apparently in even less.

I started with taking the My Slim Dietary Supplement twice a day after meals as recommended. I immediately felt its effect on my bowel movement pattern as it became a bit irregular. I became a tad constipated while taking the supplement. It gave me the feeling of always being full so I started to eat less (which soon became quite frequent than usual). I figured that it was only normal to have that effect and my slight constipation was tolerable so I continued using it.

To counteract the “fullness” effect of the Supplement, you are recommended to take the My Slim Yerba Mate Drink twice a week in the comfort of your home. Why? Because it will make you take a trip to the bathroom. I figured that the Drink works in conjunction with the Supplement and together, along with the fat-burning ingredients included in My Slim, the tandem will help you reach your target weight.

I honestly want to say that I’m back to my “ideal weight” of 105-110 lbs after using My Slim but unfortunately, I’m still not. What I did manage to do though was to maintain my current weight even while I was still eating and eating and eating non-stop. I know that taking slimming detox supplements does not mean miraculous instantaneous results just by drinking them. I believe that a healthy diet and moderate exercise will also come into play and that is where I failed in this regimen. Because I knew that I was “detoxifying” myself with My Slim, I became careless with my food intake and my already minimal form of working out. I want to try again though and next time, I’m going to make sure that I live a healthy lifestyle and not just rely on the supplements. While they may be effective for some, I guess my unhealthy lifestyle was too much for effects to be really seen. I still commend Vida Nutriscience though for providing information per bottle and even a contact number for questions regarding their products. I think it may be required by the FDA/BFAD but of course their approval means everything when you try out these products. I certainly wouldn’t even try My Slim out if they weren’t FDA/BFAD approved or if their ingredients weren’t assured to be clinically-tested and safe.

Do let me know if you’ve tried out My Slim and if it worked for you. I’m still struggling with my current weight but I’m slowly coming to accept it while trying my best to live a healthier lifestyle. 🙂
