    Hi I just started Herbalife yesterday. I am doing 2 shakes and a small meal with two snacks in between. My only concern is that I bought the shake mix without a distributor. I had one contact me today and told me to stop taking the shakes until I can afford to buy the products through the distributor, that kinda turned me off...

    i used to work in the europe head office in the finance department, took the shakes and herbal supplements while i worked there as they were free to use in the kitchens, i did loose weight and once finished did manage to maintain eating food, only put weight on after having my son (10lbs 5oz) baby but now thanks to mfp have lost that too.

    love herbalife not just as diet/nutrition but also as a company to work for (not talking about being a ds)

    congrats to all on your herbalife success may it long continue :happy:

    Is this a temporary thing or is it something you do for the rest of your life? If not, what happens when you stop? Anybody here kept it off long term doing this? I don't do diets and don't plan on doing it - I'm just curious, since there's so much buzz about it. I like to keep track of all the lastest trends so I know what people are talking about in the threads.

    Unfortunately I am one who did the diet, lost lots of weight then put it all back plus some. I like MFP because i''ve been learning to eat the foods I like in portion control. After I lost with herbalife I went back to eating regular food and boom all the weight came back and more. It's great while it's working....

    To change it up a little add some fat free jello cheesecake pudding or any flavor jello pudding mix as long as fat free. I made an amazing shake today with 1/2tsp cheesecake pudding and 1/2 tsp chocolate fudge pudding(all fat free) with blackberries and vanilla formula 1.....AMAZING!

    personally i have read ALOT of bad things about soy and to my understanding herbalife uses SOY protein.

    Make your own decisions but id recommend looking into this if you havent already.

    I drink one shake for breakfast (about 300 calories) and have two healthy meals and snacks. I stay away from processed foods. I know that if I quit my morning shake, I won't gain weight back. I know how to eat healthy. You have to work out and eat right. Eating McDonalds and donuts - you're gaining your weight back. Short and sweet. I have lost 35 lbs but I don't say it's because of herbalife. It's a healthy diet and exercise!

    I love Herbalife. I have been on it for 4 months and have lost 30 lbs. and 40 inches so far. I love the shakes, and I eat one regular healthy meal a day plus 2 snacks. I eat a total of 5 to 6 times a day, regulating caloric intake. I am also a distributor. I drink tons of water, and exercise almost daily. I totally recommend this. It is not a liquid diet, it is a lifestyle change with essential vitamins and minerals people do not get from daily foods. Very nutritious :D

    You can add anything you like to your shakes. Even chocolate pudding mix. There is also a chocolate protein drink mix that Herbalife sells. You can add things and make your own recipes, like a dab of hersheys chocolate syrup. Good luck :D

    I found out some interesting facts about why shakes work. When you drink shakes as meal replacements and you start losing the weight it is because of the vitamins and minerals in the diet and it levels out your estrogen and everything else. I did Slimfast years ago when it was Soy and lost to 164 pounds. I gained it back over 2 pregnancies and 3 kids. I then put losts of research into why these kind of diets work and came back with because they are packed with nutrients and when you take those nutrients out your estrogen and everything else rises again and you gain the weight back. Make sure that you are taking a good vitamin that breaks down in your system and you start replacing the shake with proper protein and fruit and vege levels and not a lot of carbs and you will not gain the weight back.

    You're right. Some of it had to do with me and not Herbalife. However, over the last ten years I have tried everything, including changing how I eat, what i eat, exercise etc. Nothing worked....Nothing!!!! So yes I am going to attribute part of my success to the Herbalife products. My doctor knows what i am doing and has done the research on the products and has given me a thumbs up to continue. I no longer have to take thyroid replacement meds or metformin. That is a really big deal to me. After two knee surgeries that were both failures and helped not one bit, I am ecstatic that I was able to take the weight off my knees thereby taking away a lot of my knee pain. I was a size six 10.5 years ago....then I had my youngest daughter.....then I did nothing but gain weight despite being active duty in the navy and working out daily and eating right. Over the course of ten years I gained 70 pounds on top of the 40 i gained while pregnant. Finally I feel better about myself and how I look. My husband, who didn't meet me until after i had my daughter has never seen me "thin". He is excited for me and has been so supportive. The old fashioned way works for most people but not all. I am not going to push the products on anyone. If they ask a question i will answer that's all. This is just what has worked for me.

    Great job! Everyone is different! Very well said!:smile:
