I turned 40 this year and, having put on over 3 stones in the last decade despite various attempts to lose weight, and after being presented with a picture by my 5 year old daughter titled ‘Fat Daddy’, I decided it was time for a change for me and also to set a better example for my children. After some success going it alone, I decided to seek nutritional advice to check that I was eating the right food on my new self-styled diet. Imagine my surprise to find that things I associated with weight loss (like fruit for breakfast) wasn’t always the best idea and the thing I most associated with deliberate weight gain (protein) was actually really important for weight loss.

I wasn’t looking for a patented diet plan or food supplement products (in fact I specifically didn’t want that), but when Rachel Moore explained the importance of protein in a weight loss programme, I decided to give Herbalife a go. I’ve been using a combination of the Herbalife products, the support provided by Rachel in our weekly chats and introduced exercise back into my life for just over a month and have lost around a stone. I’m wearing clothes I haven’t been able to fit in for a long time and I can actually breathe and tie my shoe laces at the same time, which I haven’t been able to do for years! (Sad but true…).

Herbalife products are not a magic cure to obesity. You will still need willpower and want to make that life change, but the products help you feel full for longer, so it’s easier than other diets I have tried. The Herbalife chocolate protein bars also help me psychologically, as chocolate was one of my big down-falls. The support system provided by Rachel is of real importance too, as it helps make me feel more accountable (without going to ‘fat club’) and she helps modify the plan when needed.

I can only recommend that you try it and see for yourself… Good luck achieving your weight loss goal!
