Shakeology VS Herbalife

Jorra

I am a user and distributor of Herbalife. It is 100% effective in more than just weight loss.

That is QUITE the claim. So if I buy Herbalife, I can eat 10,000 calories of pizza and bacon everyday and lose weight?

And more than just weight loss? What else is it 100% effective in?

go to herbalife.com for correct product information.

WOWZERS guys! Lets focus on the more important things in life like......
Toilet paper over or under roll?
LOL

OVER!!!!

EXACTLY!

While over is more pleasing aesthetically, I do under because it makes the tearing easier.

Now I'm going to have to test this at home, as I've always believed the over tear is easier than the under tear. :laugh:

Please create a thread, detailing your experience.

Can you name one superior form of vitamins or minerals in Herbalife in terms of bioavailability?

Jorra

I just think it's ridiculous to make a claim that ANYTHING is 100% effective at anything.

A low post count can also be referred to as "New". New years eve was fairly recent and the #1 resolution (I believe) is to loose weight. this is a weight loss sight after all. I've tried Herbalife twice. In 2001 it worked real good, I lost 30 lbs. with it's help. I tried it again after a year break and got nothing from it but sweat. There is nothing in that statement about defending a "product", But I believe that it is perfectly fine to defend my experience from 10 years ago that you know nothing about what-so-ever. So perhaps you can calm down a bit and allow others to have their conversations. I haven't noticed anyone else in here speaking down to you.

I dont use Herbalife personally BUT Most of us, (yes most if not all) use some form of Suppliments be it Vitamins or what ever.
Herbalife is another form of these.

Haters guna Hate.

No one is being spoken down to. When using a public forum, it's helpful to distinguish between criticism of products or concepts and personal criticism. Nobody is being attacked personally.

Also, it does happen a lot where someone will suddenly post for the first time after months of membership to defend a sketchy product.

I dont know much about Herbalife but I love shakeolgy. I enjoy both the Greenberry and Chocolate. Good taste.

No and No - Real food, whole foods - balanced diet with appropriate portions for you....WHY would anyone wants to drink a yucky powdered shake when you can have a piece of lean steak instead?

actually, i've tried herbalife and it's pretty good

BrettPGH

And this is what you'll see time and time again with these products. People getting emotional. If you say "I don't think Herbalife is a very good product." they respond as if you said something about their mother. Regular people don't have this reaction to products they use. I love Pita Pit and Irish Spring Soap and plenty of other products/businesses. But if someone else didn't it certainly wouldn't hurt my self-esteem.

This is what you'll find from people who've been forced to sit through high pressure marketing presentations that wrap their hopes and dreams up in some crap product they want you to sell to your friends.

CaptainGordo

and it is ridiculous to bash something you no nothing about! The moron comment was directed towards the comment claiming I stated you could eat 10,000 calories in pizza and still lose weight. I never said such a thing.

herbalife is not just for weight loss. If you did some research you would know this!

When you wrote "It is 100% effective in more than just weight loss" it inferred that Herbalife is 100% effective in weight loss. Her question was valid. No supplement can be 100% in effecting weight loss.

BeachBody is responsible for P90x (and P90x2), Insanity, TurboFire, Pump, Slim in 6 just to name a few. They also created Shakeology. I don't feel this company can be bunched together with Mary Kay, Body By Vi and the rest.
It's a business model- not a scam.
Know anyone who's had great results doing one of these workouts?

I prefer the real food rather than premade shakes and bars.

Work out videos aren't shakes.

FYI. Most if not all are questioning the high cost per benefit value here.

The success of the exercise program has more to do with the user than the program. Regardless, the quality of one product (P90x, etc.) does not redeem the other (Shakeology).

What does that have to do with anything? Beachbody preys on the ignorance of it's users, Muscle confusion! Shakeology! Results and Recovery Formula!

Me too, I love it. I also signed up as a beachbody coach endorsing all the BB products, they work for me

I am a herbalife distributor and I love the products that one reason I signed up. Every individual is different so everyone is not going to like shakes, just as some of us cannot do the Eat Clean Diet, or any other different plan to to lose weight. My suggestion is do what works for you, I have not tried Shakeology so I cannot give my opinion on it, all I can say about Herbalife is taste good to me and I have seen results with it, but the key to anything you do is get what you put in your mouth straight and then get your physical activity increased as well and you will see results.

Shakeology; I'm a shakeology distributor and my cousin is an Herbalife distributor and we have this debate all the time.

I used it before I got pregnant and it helped to maintain my weight and build muscle. My cousin swears by herbalife.

Both are supplments, it's important to understand that it's not a maricle drink. It's suppose to be a nutritional supplement, and it will help you if you follow the plan according to the directions.

I like Shakology Better. I don't think it's the answer to the world's problems, it certainly doesn't have me feeling involved in a cult (but I get the point), and it definitely doesn't answer the question as to which direction your toilet paper should face... However, I like the taste and it offers nutrition. I have a hard time eating in the morning, so I drink it for breakfast. It is low calorie. It contains fiber, carbs, and protein, so I stay full until lunch. I enjoy it. I have not lost a significant amount of weight, it is not crack or anything... but it does satisfy my expectations of a nutritional shake. The cost is a bit crazy, but I add instant coffee to it and quit hitting starbucks, so it was a wash financially. I do feel pretty good when I drink it, and yeah. There's my two cents.

Jeff92se

If you make the claim, the burden of proof is on you. Not on us to have to do the research for you. You use the product and sell the product. It's on you to KNOW the product and not just direct people to the website.

recriger

I understand what your are saying. I am probably not using the "reply" buttons right, they aren't appearing the same to me. I was trying to reply specifically to this response:

******And here come the pitches.

"If it didn't work for you that's your fault! Other people love herbal supplements/homeopathy/expensive lipstick/fancy knives." Let me guess the fact that these herbal products use trace amounts of the nutrients they brag about or that their claims can not be substantiated by the FDA is meaningless, right? All that matters is if it works for one person, and everyone is different... we're all little snowflakes and if one person likes it it MUST be a good product!

Another common trait of the people you'll find here defending Shakeology or HCG or anything else, they have a low post count. Now that may not mean anything. But I always find it strange that there's this army of defenders for these questionable products that never say anything else on the forums, but the minute you disparage their pet product they post in force. Strange. It's almost like they're a paid schill for the products they're defending... *****

People do tend to get a tad emotional when they are either directly, or through insinuation, called a liar. The point as I can see for someone asking for personal opinions is to get a personal response of how something worked for "1 person". So "1 person's experience" would be the only answer they are wanting.

BrettPGH

I am not pushing the product here, maybe you missed that!

In case anyone missed her NOT pushing the product:

I am a user and distributor of Herbalife. It is 100% effective in more than just weight loss.

strongly disagree. Do YOUR OWN research if you want to be educated!

go to herbalife.com for correct product information

If you are really interested in making an educated decision I suggest you go to herbalife.com and do some reasearch!

herbalife is not just for weight loss. If you did some research you would know this!

Sound like a sales pitch to anyone?

skinnywithin

I tried Herbal life as a matter of fact I still have all the stuff...Thier motto is 2 shakes a day and one meal of your choice...let me put it to you how she told me...""" SHAKE --SHAKE -- CHEESESTEAK " !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

needless to say This didnt work !

SheliaN1960

I have done the research on both and both are great products. I have been on Herbalife for about 1 year now faithfully and have lost about 47 pounds total. The thing that I like most about is that it is simple and you are still getting nutrients. Follow the directions and know that some things are not for everyone. Best wishes on your choice and your journey!!!
