Those who follow a few Instagram shops here in the Philippines are probably familiar with the Brazilian Secret Slimming Coffee that Ms. Daiana Menezes herself sells. She has around 30 distributors locally and worldwide. Because of her mom's before and after picture, I was compelled to buy this coffee.
I am writing this review on December 25, 2014 (yay Christmas!) but I plan to post it later. I started taking it on December 17, 2014. Today (Christmas), it is my 8th day taking this coffee.
What: 200 grams of Slimming Coffee
Spotted: Distributors or from her IG shop: @braziliansecretcoffee (But I will buy mine next time from the Taytay, Rizal distributor)
Price: Php 680 for 200 grams. Php 390 for 100 grams
Packaging
The coffee is housed in a plastic tub. There is no tamper-proof seal but I feel a bit confident about the quality of these coffee because I bought and I transacted directly with Ms. Daiana Menezes (I paid thru her BPI account) so I believe that she won't add fillers such as milk or coffee creamer. Upon opening the jar, the coffee smelled delectable. It smells like chocolate and coffee combined. Don't worry, it doesn't taste like chocolate at all, just coffee. I don't have to worry about fillers. It tastes a bit bland with 3 teaspoons, but I intend to stick with that dosage. It's not too sweet or creamy. I sometimes use lukewarm water and this coffee melts just perfectly with a little more mixing, an evidence that there are no creamer fillers.
Here are the ingredients and product description:
Performance
Brazilian secret slimming coffee is supposed to be taken once every morning in 3 teaspoon servings. I take mine the moment I wake up. Afterwards, I take a shower and then eat breakfast. There are days that I wake up at 11 AM or 12 PM but I still do the same. I find that it's more effective when taken in the morning, around 7-9 AM. I did a brief research about it and discovered that the best time for absorption in our stomachs happens around 6 to 7 AM.
When I take it in the morning, around 8 to 10 AM, I find that it's very effective in suppressing the appetite. I literally do not crave for snacks or merienda anymore but it doesn't mean that I am repulsed by them :P. As an appetite suppressant, this coffee works instantly ESPECIALLY when taken before 10 AM. I started taking Brazilian Secret Slimming Coffee on December 17, 2014. In my opinion, I should have taken it after Christmas instead haha.
Here are my pictures BEFORE taking Brazilian Secret Slimming Coffee. I am not the type of person who weighs a lot because I want noticeable results. I could have lost, for example, 2 kilos (around 4 pounds) but then I would look the same. So I go for the noticeable results only. I depend heavily on measuring tape when slimming down.
Note: I know that I'm fat as f*ck so please no bashers :). I am slowly incorporating exercise and proper diet in my lifestyle and a few extras to speed up slimming down.
My (Obvious) Problem Areas:
Thighs (18")
Stomach (28.5")
Arms
I went to a friend's birthday party on December 19, 2014. I ate barbecue, pancit, 3 cupcakes, roasted chicken and she served me coke but I diluted it with 50% water.
AFTER 8 DAYS (December 24, 2014):
You all know what happens during noche buena! At this point, I did eat a lot, but it was better compared to last year's noche buena where I ate around 6 slices of pizza. Last night, I ate just 3 slices plus a small serving of cathedral cake, leche flan, fried chicken wings, ham and pesto. Give me guys a break here haha. I still drank the coffee on December 25, 2014 (Today as of writing) and I'm not craving for my mom's home made chocolate cake.
Today, I didn't eat breakfast because I woke up at 9 AM, drank the coffee, fell asleep (I slept at 4 AM last night) and then ate lunch at 2 PM.
So far, at 8 days of drinking this, I can say that it is quite slow to see the effects. BUT my appetite is constantly suppressed. I experience NO palpitation, heartburn, absent-mindedness & hives (like what I experienced in banned Chinese slimming coffees). Brazilian secret slimming coffee made my appetite less and my energy high (I feel giddy most of the time).
Comparison Before and After (8 days):
***TO BE UPDATED***
Update January 8, 2014
Yesterday I was done with the 200 gram bottle of Brazilian Secret Slimming Coffee. I skipped 3 days because I was sick. My waistline today is 26.5". I own size 29" denim jeans and I noticed that they are loose (maluwag) around the butt, hips, waist, calves and thighs. Basically yes I did get slimmer from 28.5" to 26.5".
However, I think I won't be buying this again because of two things: the price and the speed of the slimming effect. I find the slimming effect quite slow for the cost (php 680, 200 grams). I don't find myself spending P680 every time for a jar of slimming coffee that will last 20-22 days. Don't get me wrong, Brazilian secret slimming coffee is effective and I never experienced palpitation, dry mouth, difficulty on concentration, bad breath, etc. It just suppressed my appetite, increased the frequency of my urine and made me giddy and active. So if you don't find yourself spending as much every month, then this may not be for you.
My waistline is still at 27", meaning this coffee does not cause rebound. Brazilian Secret slimming coffee is now available in a new and improved version. However, I want to try other slimming options. If this coffee were cheaper (Php500 tops) I'd buy it monthly.

Well my waistline is still at 27". No rebound as in! I think I found a new respect for Brazilian Secret Slimming Coffee that I want to buy it again. I'm deciding on trying Easy Slim 10 next (because it's only Php 350) and if it failed me, I'm going back to Brazilian Secret Slimming Coffee by Daiana.
==Update June 02, 2015==
I just bought anothet tub, the new and improved version. I figured I don't want to risk it trying a lot of Made in China slimming pills. So yeah I guess I'll be sticking to Brazilian Secret Slimming Coffee until I reach my target vital statistics. :)
