I am a 62 year old who keeps adding weight every year. I decided to give Herbalife a try. The first week lost 5 lbs and was very pleased. I like the chocolate shake mix best, but the vanilla is good also. I can have the shake for breakfast and lunch and it actually fills me up. I have tried the carrots and lettuce stuff just feel starved and deprived. I am looking forward to loosing more and feeling better. for me its just too easy!

Hi everyone, I started the weight loss program back in Feb of 2010 with only about 15 to lose. Those are the hardest ones to lose. I lost 11 in the first 2 months just doing the shakes and bars. People really noticed and asked what I was doing. I became a distributor to save money because I knew I was going to keep taking the products. Since then, I have made it a business and am now a supervisor. I strongly believe in these products. I need to eat food, so just drinking the shakes with nothing else was hard, so putting them in the blender with ice is amazing. You can add puddings, jello powder, and my favorite is just the cookies and cream shake with about a tsp of peanut butter. When I have them in the blender, it keeps me fuller longer. Sometimes just one or 2 pieces of low calorie wheat toast is good with a shake. You need lots of protein when you are losing so you lose the fat and not the muscle. That is very important, especially if you are older. The deluxe bars are awesome for an afternoon snack as well as the peach mango drink mix. I tell ppl I lost weight by drinking milk shakes and eating candy bars. I haven’t been this size for at least 20 years and it feels wonderful. Maintaining is easy because I love drinking the shakes. My husband has lost weight because he just loves drinking them too. It never has to get boring because you just try something different for a shake. There are lots of recipes online too. If anyone needs any help, or has any questions, feel free to email me. I would love to help you. I have since lost an additional 3 pounds for a total of 14. Love, love, love the products. sjbarnell@live.com

I am thinking of using Herbalife but I am afraid that I will regain the weight. I am not satisfied with the way that I look currently as I weigh 230lbs. I try to encourage my kids to exercise but since I had a knee surgery I am afraid to exercise the way I use to. I would like to get a jump start and lose 30lbs and then try to use self control and exercise to lose the rest. I have a closet full of clothes that do not fit, I plan to use the money I would use to buy new clothes to dothis diet and hope that it works for me as well as it has worked for others. Wish me luck and give me some feedback!!!!

I just started herbalife today and after everything ive read there is more possive than negative about this product, yes it is a little pricy but id rather be happy with myself than have this extra money. I just had a baby 8 months ago and the weight was coming off pretty good, i was down a little over 50lbs when i fell off the train and stopped paying attention to my weight, plus no exercise. Gained 10lbs on and now ima do my best to lose the rest, still have 20lbs to lose to get the baby weight off then hopefully i can lose an extra 10lbs on top of that. my first shake was great but now i wonder what can i add to them for extra flaver? What snacks do you recommend?

Wish me luck!!! ill update in a few weeks.

Hello all! I was searching for a way to lose weight at over 300lbs it was time for me to do something. I joined a gym started working out and was looking to eat healthier. Several times throughout a week I saw flyers for the same weight loss challenge and decided to call the number. I had heard of herbalife but never tried the products (probably the only thing I hadn’t tried) After my first shake I was hooked. If you are thinking that this is pricey just break it down. Each canister of shake has 30 servings so for a little more than a dollar a meal you can succeed with this progam. I am saving so much money over the $5-7 dollar meals at even the cheapest fast food places and losing weight. Crazy huh? I am learning so much about general nutrition and whole foods. I never learned these things just counting points. I am trying new foods and finding out that I LIKE them. Still working hard and continuing to be motivated. This is a very good program for someone who is single and busy.

I have been on Herbalife since 03/29/10 since then I have lost 30 pounds I’m a manager with a very stressful lifestyle so when I started losing the weight it felt great I have so much energy now customers,family&friends notice the difference in my attitude on my face and body so this product does work. alot of people tell me negative things about gaining the weight back when I stop using it. I believe you gain the weight back because they go back to their bad eating habits.

I started Herbalife back in February of 2010 and ive lost 35lbs and feel better than i ever have in my entire life. I got hooked on it after my co-worker lost 45lbs in 3 months. She started in November 2009 and has gone from 220+ to a fantastic 155! She became a distributor about a 1 1/2 months after she started and signed me up as a distributor just after 2 weeks of me being on it. After using this product for almost 4 months now, i have changed my lifestyle and feel great about it! Me and my husbands relationship has gotten much better thanks to HL as well. After we got married in 2008, i put on 30lbs in just 1 year! We started drifting apart as i didnt even feel comfortable enough to go out in public with him, i didnt even want to be around our friends anymore because of what had become of me. We stopped having intimate moments and just sat home and did nothing. This was all within our first year and a 1/2 of marriage, which is the most crutial time for newlyweds. Now that i started HL I dont feel so self consious in front of him anymore and i feel much more confident. We do many more bonding activities now that keep us close and connected with one another and keep us healthy and in shape. I believe that if HL had not some how made its way into my life, our marriage was headed to the big D!! We are now closer than ever and after HL made such a huge impact on my life, i have helped many of my friends and family find the joy and worthiness of being on this product. I am always surrounded by happy, healthy people and it makes me feel good that i showed them the ways to a healthier life style through the HL product!
Anyone thinking of trying this should definitely go for it. Its made me and everyone i know on it much happier and feel so much better about life!! I would definitely recommend this product to anyone i know or anyone looking for a weight loss solution that works or even just looking for a way to stay healthy!!

The shakes are great! And there are endless things you can mix them with to get all sorts of different flavours. If I want a little extra protien, I throw a tbs or 2 of natural peanut butter in there. If I want something really chocolately, a tbs of 0 cal 0 sugar chocolate pudding mix! I like the lemon pudding mix with vanilla too :) Adding frozen fruit is always yummy–seriously–the possibilities are endless.

I had body scans done before i started and after my first 5 weeks. In that time–with low-moderate exercise–I lost 20 pounds of FAT and gained 10 pounds of lean muscle mass! Now, after about 10 weeks, I have lost a total of about 26 pounds and 11 inches. I love this program–it is convenient and I don’t get cravings for meals as I thought I would. The high protein content takes care of that. I DO feel like I have a ton of energy which is key for me because I am a full time student and work 3rd shift full time as well–so I’m always on the go! I When I do snack, it’s something healthy, natural, and usually high in protein, low in calories (black bean salad, cottage cheese, greek yogurt, etc).

I also use sparkpeople.com to help keep track of my nutrition and weight loss. I am NOT perfect with this program—I definitely have my off days. But overall, I’ve stuck with it and the changes are noticeable. I am even thinking about becoming a distributor now so I can spread the word about how great a product it is! :)

I just started using Herbalife about 4 days ago. I used to need at least 3 cups of coffee a day in order to get through the day without being super tired. Now, I don’t need any. I feel completely energized, and I’ve lost 3lbs and 2in. The shakes can be really good if you take the time to experiment or look at the recipes they offer. I really like the vanilla powder with chocolate soy milk or apple juice.

As far as snacking goes, the protein bars are actually pretty good and keep you from still feeling hungry. I find that drinking lots of water, which, for some reason I’ve been craving the past few days, and I normally don’t drink any at all during the day, keeps me from snacking too much. I also got some dried fruit and almonds to use for snacking during the day. You should eat something small every 3 or so hours, so snacking is a good thing, just don’t overdo it.

Good luck!
