"If you really want to change your life, Herbalife is the way to do it!"

Dangerously overweight teenager is put on Herbalife by her doctors
By Stephanie

At 15, Stephanie was dangerously overweight at 226 pounds. She suffered from high blood pressure and doctors warned her that if she didn't lose weight, she could be at risk for serious health problems. None of this motivated her enough. Then, someone told her boyfriend's mother she looked pregnant. Stephanie exclaims, "I knew it was time to do something about it."

Because of Stephanie's high blood pressure and other health risks, many over-the-counter weight-loss programs were out of the question. Herbalife was the only program Stephanie's doctors approved. "The program was easy to follow, and I liked the foods I could eat," Stephanie says.

Stephanie went on to lose 100 pounds in a year and is now a happy, healthy 16-year-old. Her weight loss was gradual, but steady and consistent. "I noticed a big difference during my first month on the program," she remembers. "And a year later, I'm still on it and still losing weight. I didn't believe it could work until I tried for myself!"*

“When I see heavy people now, I feel for them. They just need to try this.”

"When the Hula Hoop got stuck around my middle, that was it!"
By Scott B.

For Scott, the change came about when a friend put a Hula Hoop around him and he couldn’t get it off. Scott knew that he had to lose a significant amount of weight.
“I lost more than half my weight.”

Prior to discovering Herbalife products, Scott could not walk a block or bend over to tie his shoes because the pressure of his weight would become unbearable. Many suggested he undergo surgery to reduce his size, but Scott was reluctant to go to such extreme measures. Instead, he turned to Herbalife products.

“When I see heavy people now, I feel for them. They just need to try this.” Having tried every “potion and powder,” Scott believed that Herbalife’s nutritional weight-loss program would bring the change he was looking for. And indeed it was. Scott’s old cravings have subsided and he craves healthier foods. Scott also improved his exercise routine and is now very active–and very happy.*

“I finally have my life back!”
“I felt tired all the time and didn’t know why.”
By Julie A.

For Julie A., the third try was the charm. Throughout her 30s and early 40s, she had twice been told about the nutritional and weight-loss benefits of Herbalife products, but she was reluctant to give them a try. “I was pretty negative,” she says. “Even though I had no energy and felt terrible, I didn’t think anything would help.” Although a skeptic about weight loss, Julie’s competitive streak came out when she was asked to join a weight-loss challenge. She joined, lost 25 pounds, and won the contest—all with the help of Herbalife.

“I realized what my body had been missing!” Long plagued by muscle and joint pain, Julie noticed that her weight loss coincided with renewed energy. Her lower weight reduced stress on her joints. “Before, my diet had been almost all carbs,” she says. “I had no nutrition going into my body, which meant I was both overweight and malnourished.” With 41 pounds lost, Julie continues to drink a shake every day and sees especially amazing results from Active Fiber. No longer a skeptic, she talks to people about Herbalife whenever she can. “Before I was functioning at around 25 percent of my capacity,” she says. “Now it feels like 100 percent.”*

Mary Ann:

After:139 pounds
Lost: 50 pounds

Rodney and Mary Ann Marcantel joke that they've tried every weight-loss program ever developed. But their weight was no laughing matter. "Mary Ann had serious weight-related health issues," Rodney says, "and many of my relatives suffered from poor health brought on by being overweight." So when Rodney started dropping pounds on the ShapeWorks® products, he says, "I knew this was our answer to a healthy future.”

"We'd both been battling weight problems forever."

Despite Rodney's initial success, he recalls, "Mary Ann was skeptical, having been disappointed by weight-loss programs before." So Rodney sent his wife to work with a shake. And when Mary Ann called just hours later, Rodney knew she had come around. "She said, ‘I don't know what’s in this thing, but I feel incredible!’ And I told her, ‘So do I.’" Now, Rodney and Mary Ann are enjoying healthy, vibrant lives. "I’m so glad I tried that first shake," he says. "We describe ShapeWorks® products in one word–wow!"*
