Have been thinking about getting a little help here lately in this weight loss struggle of mine. I am down almost 50 lbs from a yr ago but have been at the same weight since prob November and I would really like to lose about 30 to 40 more. What do you all think of the Herbalife program???? I want the good the bad and the ugly here folks! I wanna hear it all! Thanks!

Hi there;
First of all CONGRATS to the weightloss - way to go!
About Herbalife; I wanted to do it too but gave up on that idea because of the side effects - some you can find here:

I was an Herbalife distributor, and I pretty much had product at my disposal at all times. I found that, by doing the shakes 2X per day and a 'sensible' meal at dinner, I was able to lose about 15 pounds over a relatively short period of time. Maybe a month or so. HOWEVER, I wanted to do something that I can actually keep doing. I found that we were losing money (purchasing the products) faster than we were losing weight.
I will say that I will have an Herbalife shake every now and then, but only because I feel like something light, but satisfying and tasty. Quite honestly, I knew that I could not sustain this 'diet', as it would limit me in my lifestyle. If I were to go out to eat, what do I do, bring shake with me? No, that was not going to work for me.
Oh, and one last note, I gained all that weight back, and more once I stopped using the shakes and supplements.
Good Luck! :drinker:0
