Anybody doing the Herbalife diet

I started Herbalife NUTRITION products 2/27/13 - Best decision of my life! Two shakes a day, Aloe and Herbal Tea. By day 3, my acid reflux was GONE and I have been sleeping like a baby since, which is huge for me! I signed up to be a distributor on day 4 LOL!

Herbalife is NOT A DIET, it's Nutrition all the way to the cellular level of your being!

I have been on hypothyroid medication for 17 years. Last week I had blood work done and the same day my Dr. called and LOWERED my medication!!! First time ever and the only thing I've changed is adding Herbalife Nutrition to my life! I heard stories of people getting off their thyroid meds (dream of mine) by adding the Ultimate Prostate supplement, so I added that two weeks ago. I know what you're thinking, I'm a girl and I don't have a prostate, right? Well, they're both glands and I'll gladly pay for an herbal supplement in order to get off chemical meds!

AND I've lost 11.4 lbs and 6" since I started Herbalife Nutrition products. Confession: I really only stick with it during the week and I still lost over 11 lbs, without exercising! I was stuck on a plateau for 4 months, the scale wouldn't budge. I was depressed about it, frustrated about exercising 4-6 times a week and nothing was happening. Herbalife saved my life! My husband has been on Herbalife since 3/11 and has lost 14 lbs and 3" around his belly! Hardest decision is what flavor do I want haha!

If you're on it, stick with it! If you're ready to maintain your weight, one shake a day, but watch your calories! Lots of water!
If you've just started, Congratulations! Two healthy, high protein, low-fat snacks with a fruit or green veggies between shakes and "regular" meal, which should be 1/3 plate lean protein, 1/3 plate salad, 1/3 plate veggies (a.k.a. Colorful Meal). LOTS OF WATER - at least 1/2 your body weight in ounces each day. Protein intake should be about half your body weight in grams each day. Myfitnesspal is an excellent tool for tracking all of this! The person you got your product from should have passed this info to you and should be there to support you so don't hesitate to contact them if you have questions. Be assertive! This is your body and you only get one!

There are also TONS of great Herbalife recipes, like pancakes and pie! Google is your friend

Glad you guys found something that works for you. How many calories in one shake? I'm guessing 200?

One shake with semi skimmed milk is around 220 calories. I usually use skimmed milk or light unsweetened soya milk to lessen the calories a little and for a change in tase.
I weighed myself last week, two days after starting herbalife and was 11stone. Really depressed me! Thankfully I dont have scales in my house otherwise Id be weighing myself everyday so I will weigh myself in like a month or so to see if there is any difference. I dont really care about what the scales say though, because I am working out a lot, running boxercise etc I know I'll build up muscle. I just want to loose the inches and get fit.
I am still waiting to see the results of herbalife impacting and improving your skin, hair and nails. Though Im happy with those anyway :-). I do like it for energy and I'm not hungry either. If I find myself getting hungry I snack on fruit or yoghurt.
Trying to remember to drink lots of water too, I was bad the last few days in not drinking as much as I should, plus its a pain in the *kitten* to keep running to the loo all the time!
But second week and I'm sticking to it! Also Im pretty sure its actually saving me money for breakfasts and lunches.

I just started as well and I'm doing one shake for lunch. I haven't tried the tea yet. I've been drinking lots of water too. I just can't seem to figure out the calories. If you find out, can you please fill me in?? I'd appreciate it. Good luck on your journey!!

R the shakes expensive?

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...

bump for later

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....

I started yesterday and am enjoying it.. finding it really easy to do but still craving some chocolate!!

I am having the vanilla formula 1 with skimmed or light soya milk and some frozen berries in the blender and really enjoying it. i am just having berries and greek yogurt in afternoon and chicken/fish with veg and brown rice for dinner

If anyone has any recipe ideas let me know!

Thanks

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!

Hello everybody
I have started using Herbalife on 27th of may I was 85 kg agained 30 kilos in total when I was pregnant with my first daughter I lost 14 kilos then gained 4 killos I started herba life on 85 kilos now after 12 days I lost 4 killos I used to lose one killo pre day then it stopped for three days then I gained balk a killo!! I take two shaves and a meal some times I take a low fat yougort an apple a banana I sometimes add corn flakes to the shake or a banana my meal is lunch I usually have allot of row vegetables and low carbs and low fat I eat ish and chicken most of the time with the minimum amount of rice or bread... I don't work out allot but I do work out like 3 days a wekk for 30 p 45 mins because of my messy routine of my daughter and the sleepless nights !

I really need help I want to get back o my original wight which is 65 killos I am165cm tall

I am looking forward for ideas and tips

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!

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

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!
