    So you go to GNC and buy their protein powder, what's the difference????
    Some people have no clue is all
    LOL @ comparing Herbalife to protein powder.

    Read dis:
    REALLY?!?!

    Oh, and then there were the people that were made sick and died because of the ephedrine in it - it was illegal to sell in Southern California for a long time due to this.

    Lawsuit after lawsuit, investigation and illegalities galore. If that's how you want to throw your money and your health away, go for it. I highly recommend against it.

    It's great that your "coach" (lol) keeps you motivated. If buying overpriced worthless products keeps you motivated, then keep doing it. (I'm being serious). But so long as you realize that those products have zero impact on whether you lose weight or not.

    It's no different than MuscleTech. People use their products and don't bash. To each their own. I personally don't use any products. Just get your lazy *kitten* motivated to work out/run is the key and the hardest part. Eat right and workout and it falls off rapidly.
    People on here are quick to judge and bash people's ideas but what works for someone may not work for you. We are all different mentally and physically. Hell you can give a person a placebo and they feel like it works. What drives you mentally is all that matters.

    All I know is I will drop 30 lbs in about 30 days. So you do you and I will do me :)

    GNC sells a lot of bullchit products too. I wouldn't tell people to go to GNC to buy fat burner pills or raspberry ketones.

    Unlike herbalife products, protein is scientifically proven to help build and repair muscle.

    You lost 9 lbs, but it's not fat loss. It's mainly water weight.

    Once you damage your liver and other organs with this garbage, you can't fix them back to how they were before. I strongly advise you to ditch this scam product and the "coach" aka sales person who is selling it to you. None of us here want to see yet another person harmed through this quackery. Please if you value your health stop using it!!!

    Kinda funny when you think about it. He crash diets every season with Herbal Life, yet defends it like it's successful all while being a self admitted yo-yo dieter. In what world is being a yo-yo dieter being successful? lol

    Pretty much confirming that it doesn't work long term is the worst sales strategy ever....lol.

    By doing herbalife your kinda just paying large sums of money to make yourself ill, have you actually seen the caffeine content? A group of my friends started it, like any good old fad diet they started off by losing lots of weight obviously because of the calorie deficit and caffeine boosts but then they all got ill, headaches, palpitations, anxiety, shakes, fainting when standing up... even after stopping it two of my friends continued to be quite ill for a while. after visiting the doctors it turns out that the herbalife actually contains toxic substances such as very high amounts of LEAD.
    i do not know how it is legal, please stop it and just eat natural healthy foods and excercise... losing weight naturally and gradually is the only way you are going to keep it off.

    Oh noes, didn't you read what he wrote ..he has a "friend" who sells it and she is amazing and skinny :huh:

    Scam artist seeks scammers to believe everything he writes

    And 30lb in 30 days ...dude no! That is so not 30lbs of fat lost, that's a helluva lot of glycogen and water stores and LBM lost...poor muscle ....on day 31-35 you will gain back 10-15lbs just by eating normal food...and then you'll have to bulk to regain muscle and it's so much harder building muscle than preserving what you have already
