"I'm very particular about my weight, so it's important for me not to consume supplements that increase my appetite."CC Collagen is the perfect solution, added Erra, who is still stunning at the age of 40.She highlighted that inner health should precede physical beauty. "When you are healthy inside, it will show on the outside and you automatically become noticeably attractive.""Health should be your main concern," added Erra, who was speaking at SlimWorld's open house event held at Ming Garden Hotel.

She recalled going into depression when she gained a lot of weight in the past. This led her to hire an instructor for 10 sessions."After only 10 sessions, I could already see my body going from flab to fab. When we can see improvement, it drives us to do more.Seeing the beauty of others also steered her in this direction. Instead of trying to please others, she did it to improve her self-esteem and feel good about herself."My friends Rozita Che Wan and Umi Aida have incredibly beautiful figures. So if they can do it, why can't I? I always compare myself with the best. When we do that, we will be the best."The worst period of her life in terms of weight gain was after confinement (becoming pregnant). "I just cried. I was embarrassed to go out."It puts more pressure on her that the big and fat genes run in her family. Much to her horror, many of them were already welcoming her to the XXXL Club.When SlimWorld came into the picture, it became her beacon of hope at that time."I wanted faster results, so I went for slimming treatments at SlimWorld three times a week. But on top of that, I also exercised and watched my diet.""After a few months of sticking to a healthy routine, I saw results."Erra advised that one should tackle a problem before it gets out of hand."When you notice that you are gaining weight, get to work. Exercise and eat well because it's still easy to lose weight at this stage. "When I gained 25kg, even with exercise or diet, I only managed to lose 5kg which is unnoticeable. So make sure you start at an early stage.""Not that it is impossible to lose weight when you have ballooned, it's just that more work should be done when you reach that point.""There are Stem Cell products that cause one's cholesterol level to increase. But research has been conducted by SlimWorld experts to prevent this from happening. "SlimWorld treatments do not cause one to feel too cold or hot, and on top of that, shows promising results," said Erra, which is why she has stuck with it for five consecutive years.She admitted to having a day for satisfying her sweet tooth, in small quantities."That's when I treat myself with cheese cake and other desserts."Erra advised attendees to eat a heavy breakfast, a light lunch, drink green tea and have dinner at 7pm. "Sleep only after four hours of food intake. Take less carbohydrates," she said.Stay up-to-date by following Daily Express’s Telegram channel.
