I was going thru some pictures last night with my husband. I came across a picture of me from 2 years ago. I can't believe that I allowed myself to get that big. I was a size 14 and only 5 feet 1 inch tall!! That's super over weight for sure.
Thank goodness for my best friend who introduced me to Herbalife. Only a few months later I lost 34 pounds.. which is now 40 pounds. I have not gained any of the weight back and I am so healthy now.
Do you have any before and after pics? Have you lost weight and have you kept it off? Please share your story of Victory

Oh wow, you look so amazing! You still look pretty on your before picture but wow! You're even more attractive in that tube dress. You totally rock that white dress!
I am not really tall either, I only stand 5'2" so I know that I will not look good with all the excess weight. Good thing I do not really have a problem with my weight, but of course I would like to be more toned. I also want to get rid of my love handles.

That was a great lost.. but it was one great lost for the better! After being just at home for the past 2 years and not being active with work, I gained about 10 pounds. And I am trying to shed it off. Hopefully, I can.
I hate my arms being a bit bigger and the THIGHS! ughhh!

Thanks! I really need to push myself more. Hopefully doing those morning jogging and eating healthier food would make me lose a few pounds.

You look great and you must feel so proud of yourself. I have to tell my daughters about this. They are both in their 30's but a bit overweight. I thank god I have never had a weight issue. I think I've been lucky because I only eat when I'm hungry and I eat to survive. I don't eat because I love food like my daughters. Don't get me wrong I do love certain foods but it all has to do with portion control and will power. Good luck and continue success.

I know just what you mean! We must eat to live, and not live to eat. Of course we all have foods that we really enjoy! we should, but that doesn't mean that we only eat those foods. We have to have eat well and at least walk for 30 minutes each day. Here is the link to my website, and my numer and email is on there. Please feel free to reach out and ask me any question... I love Herbalife and what it has done for me, my whole family, and now my clients. It has changed our lives seriously. Now I am on a personal mission to change the lives of others!!

Congratulations on your losing weight!
I always think it's the most happy thing for a femal to have a great shape,and I can understand my wife often asks my if she's gained weight,hehe.I want myself to gain some weight since I'm so thin as a man.But a doctor told me that it's so hard to lose weight if you got fat!

There are ways to gain weight without getting fat. You have to make sure you take in the proper nutrtion. Herbalife also works for people who want to put on a few pouns also. You just have a Herbalife shake after each meal. I have clients who are working on gaining some weight as well.

i am losing weight but with the help of running for an hour and a half every morning, plus walking to get to my office every morning also adds up on losing extra pounds. I didnt have to take diet supplements but im pretty sure i can recommend that to some of my friends who really struggles on losing weight. these days lifestyle really affects our health and i am glad i continue to live a normal, happy and healthy life :)

Running and walking are great ways to drop the pounds. You also need to make sure you get the proper nutrtion, that's where Herbalife comes in. You need to make sure you are doing both to ensure you lose the weight and keep it off. That's what's working for me and now my 80 clients for the past 2 years

Hi 34 momma My husband worked for herbal life for awhile but I never took advantage of their product.Since my doctor had my thyroid checked I have gone from 210 to 186 but have a long ways to go yet as I want to get down to 150pounds ., thats the weight I looked and felt good at. I wish I did have some photos but I do not. I am impressed by your accomplishment and you say you did it with herbal life? I should try that.

Wow I am proud of you for taking back your life and you can now look back and appreciate where you are now . A lot of people just got caught up with life and forget about their body .
A lot of people cant do what you have done they think its impossible to lose weight but they just dont want to make some changes.

Hi,
I am rather embarrassed to say that my before and after pics would only point to my weight gain. I was slim earlier but put on weight now due to having to eat out often and my erratic routine as I have a lot of study pressure and wake up late nights to finish those files and projects, resulting in a bad effect on my health. I do wish to lose weight and waiting for this course to finish so that I can get back to my normal routine. I am trying my best to include some free hand exercises in my routine but it is kind of irregular. I am really happy to know that you lost so much weight and are fit and healthy now.I have not heard about Herbalife here in India but surely it must be amazing since it assisted in helping you shed those unwanted pounds. Wish you luck in your life and hope I too can share my story of victory with you someday.

They for sure have Herbalife in India. I know that work and studing all crazy hours and not getting enough sleep will for sure affect your health. Eating out and eating late all start to show up in packing on the pounds. You can lose the weight just like I did. When you are ready... I would love to help you get back to your normal weight with Herbalife

I would like to congratulate you for the successful lose of you weight. Not only did you look sexier but i know you feel healthier.
I also used to be skinny before 100 lbs.. That all changed when i gave birth. Now, i am 125 lbs. But i like my body now, because it's fleshier and sexier.

I am amazed upon seeing your picture. Losing weight is not easy.
I wonder how much Herbalife cost? I don't usually buy anything that will help me lose weight except only do aerobic exercise and eat less.
So far, I have maintained my weight but it did not go down either.
Congrats! You look really good in your white dress! Keep it up!

Thanks for the kind words Aja... It depends on what your goals are. It is about $1.50 per shake a day. You need to have to shakes each day to lose weight so that's $3.00 each day for breakfast and dinner. If you ask me that's pretty cheap to have a very healthy meal!

I didn't have any discomfort with Herbalife. The one thing I noticed right away was my energy levels changed for the better. I felt fantastic. So much so, 3 days after using the products I decide that I need to be apart of the business!! Almos 2 years later, I have 80 clients now, 15 partners and I am loving every moment of it!!
Here is my link, create an account, look over the products and contact me with any questions or comments!

You are very determined. LOL, I wish I am as focused as you are. I get easily tempted by food.
It is cheap if one has a job. I don't have the money to spend on it for now. Maybe once I get a job I will buy Herbalife. My mom is interested in it too. I told her about you losing weight and it motivated us.
So you substitute 2 meals everyday for ... how many months? Did you have any stomach discomforts at all? I am worried that my stomach might not tolerate the sudden change in diet once I start herbalife.

Wow! that's awesome you gain back your ideal stats so swxy, Being chubby though is not bad nor ugly it's just simply prone to sickness. I have a friend whose been in months trying to reduce some pounds too I would recommend her Herbal life, I hope she'll try , Some works for others, some won't. But I think whatever diest we have we still need to collaborate exercise for a healthier life. Congrats to you for your determination, it's evident through your after pics :) Well I envy people who gets fatter when amount taken is more, but it doesn't work on me. I try hard everyday, i eat way more than I need still I'm thin. I hate it. I wanna be a little bigger than i am now :((

It's not so much what your weight number is, as it's important to know that you are healthy. Healthy doesn't mean skinny at all. It means feeling comfortable in your skin. It's knowing that you are well and no sickness. Herbalife helps to gain weight also. Here is my link... please pass it on to your friend and take a look for yourself as well!
