Skin improvement due to Weight Loss

2006-09-02T18:28:00.000+01:00

I always had problems with my skin on my arms and thighs. They call it "orange peel skin". When I started on the weight loss program I also used the Body Buffing Scrub and Contouring Creme. Now after a few month my skin has improved considerably.

Both products are a very useful in conjunction with the weight loss products.

I went for my shopping trip and guess what I am now down from a size 14-16 to a size 12!!! I was absolutley ecstatic. I bought some new clothes - some white shorts which I would have never worn before. I also spend one day amended some of my existing clothes because they all fell off me - it felt really good!

Since May I have lost another 2kg but I still want to loose some more. I will keep you updated!

My Weight Loss Story

My Story

It all started in January 2006 and first of all I didn't think that I had to loose weight. I was just right as I was. Then my fiancé (Louis) joined a network marketing company and he started on the products. I was watching him but not prepared to join him. Two weeks later we attended a training seminar and we met our mentor. She had this little machine with her which measures your body fat percentage. Louis wanted his done straight away. I was a little bit apprehensive because I knew that my body fat might be high. I did it anyway and then OH MY GOD it was sky high. At that moment I decided that I was going to try the product – but only to lower my body fat and maybe I would lose some weight as well.

So I started my journey with ShapeWorks. The products tasted really great and there was a big advantage – I could replace one meal at work which was Great in itself because the food at work can be very challenging in taste, texture and nutrition. Before I started on the program I didn’t have breakfast and I learnt that if the body doesn’t get regularly nutrients it starts converting the food into fat and the same applies if one doesn’t drink enough. The body stores the fluids when it gets it.

So now I am replacing my breakfast and lunch with a delicious shake (they have all different flavors like tropical fruit, vanilla, choclate,…) and I drink lots of fluids but not coffee or black tea. I am not really fond of plain water but the program offers a few products to flavor the water and they all have some addional benefits. Eg Thermojetics Instant Herbal Beverage is a refreshing and uplifting drink which increases your metabolic rate. They jokingly call it the "Gym in the Bottle". The other drink I love is a Herbal Aloe Concentrate. It is a very refreshing drink which smoothes the digestive system and assists the natural self-cleaning action of the body. In between shakes or meals I have one or two fruits. In the evening we have a balanced and colourful meal.

And my progress? Well, I started off losing centimeters around my hips but I didn’t really lose any weight. Very slowly the weight went down. It wasn’t always easy. Some days I stuck to the program and some days I was really naughty. But I think the most important thing was that I just carried on regardless if I put on some weight or not. Now after 3 month I have lost around 6kg.
There is one thing nobody tells you when you start on the program. You have to buy new clothes. At the moment I have one pair of trousers that fits everything else is too big. So I am looking forward to a shopping trip!!

Goals for Life

2006-05-03T20:08:00.000+01:00

A program for life

Start as you mean to go on!
It takes between three and six weeks to develop a new habit (or break an old one!). When you follow a Herbalife Program, you will be encouraged to create new, healthy habits to help you succeed with our weight management goals and then maintain an ideal weight for life.

Set achievable goals!
What weight /dress size would you like to be in eight weeks?
What would you like to be in six months?
If you achieve targets easily you can always set more!
So keep your goals and targets at attainable levels.

What the mind can conceive and believe - it can achieve!
If you are positive and motivated you have a greater chance of success. Visualise yourself at your ideal weight when eating. Visualise food being digested and imagine your body burning the food off as energy and not storing fat! Stress (pressure or tension) uses up vital nutrients – try to avoid it! Think of your weight control effort as a time to enjoy learning a whole new program for life!
