In my first 3 months I lost 18kgs, it was unbelievable! Linda du Buisson from KZN
My life before I began taking the Herbalife products was unhealthy with my weight steadily climbing up the scales. My doctor advised me to use a nutrition program. I started using a basic Herbalife range including anti oxidant Rose ox. From the onset I started to feel better, had much more energy and I started to loose weight. In my first 3 months I lost 18kgs, it was unbelievable!
After 18 months I had gone from size 46 to an awesome 34. I could not believe how slim I had become. I have lost a total of 58kg. I use the entire Herbalife range of nutritional products and the body care and facial products to improve the quality of my skin that had stretched so badly. The final result is that I do not look like I was ever fat at all. My skin fits my little body, my muscle mass is that of an athlete and I feel unbelievable.
"Herbalife changed me completely! Michelle Mchunu: Before Herbalife I was overweight, tired, suffered from acne for 5 years, had no confidence and low self esteem. I was introduced to Herbalife 6 years ago, within 3 days I felt so great, my skin started clearing up. Bonus is I have now lost 28 kgs! and went down from dress size 38 to 29/30! Fully recovered from acne, I have got my Figure back and gained my confidence! I feel absolutely GREAT! There is nothing I would want to change about myself, I am so happy with what these product have done for me that I'm dedicating my life to bringing them to others!"

"If I can lose weight, ANYONE CAN!!"
I had finally given up on trying to lose weight on my own. At 294kg's, I decided that I would have no choice but to have gastric-bypass surgery. After years of yo-yo dieting and numerous failed attempts at just about every diet there was on the market, I believed I had no other option.
My weight problem was affecting me both physically as well as emotionally. I had developed sleep apnea, chronic fatigue and severe swelling in my feet and ankles that made it difficult for me to walk and be able to do the everyday things most people take for granted. I was awaiting approval of the surgery from our insurance company when I was introduced to these unbelievable products and decided to try them instead of going through with the operation. I credit these products for saving my life and giving a bright future to look forward to. I am so grateful I chose to give them a try instead of the surgery.
Today, 186kg's lighter, Jim is literally half the person he used to be. My health problems have totally cleared up.

My doctor's words were along the line of  "DO or DIE".
Do something about it now, or DIE sooner than you ought to. When I started these amazing nutrition products the most incredible thing was how bright eyed & bushy tailed I became almost immediately. I am still feeling this wonderful energy and sense of well being.  In the space of approx. 11 months, I lost 300 centimeters from around my body and an amazing 64kgs thus far & due to the good nutrition & weight loss, my health problems have improved greatly. CAROL MORPHEW, Howick, South Africa.

  Before Herbalife I tried everything. My health was always compromised due to diet pills, and starvation diets. Then I was introduced to Herbalife. At first I was very sceptical, but after losing 45 kgs in just six months I knew I had found THE winning formula. Thanks to our incredible products I have lost a total of 57 kgs, 4 dress sizes and 3 and a half metres in cm's. The best is its easy, it's good for you and it's weight loss for life. Thank you Mark Hughes. Thank you Herbalife!The best is its easy, it's good for you and it's weight loss for life. LINDA FERNS, Empangeni, SA.
 

Dangerously overweight teenager is put on Herbalife by her doctors
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!"*

Sports Testimonials

Thys Stoltz - SA Western Province Rugby Team & now director of Rugby in France. "I experienced an almost immediate energy increase and after three weeks on the products, I moved up 16 places to number 2 in the Squad's test group! I continue to use the products on a daily basis and have my top 35 players using them as well in order to give them the edge that I experienced while still playing."

Cara Lee - Tri-athlete Cape Town.  "..after taking the products for only two weeks I noticed the following changes:
- An increase in energy levels (I did not think this could be possible as I already had loads of energy.) - Decrease of 2% body fat from 14 % to 12% - My acne started to settle. It has now completely gone. I have realized that no other supplementation I had previously been on gave me the results I was looking for.

Chris Thompson - Karate Shihan 7th Dan KSI Joint World Chief Instructor. These products have been a core reason that for many years now I can travel so extensively and that my body and mind can cope with international teaching, training and a business program with demands that many people would find very difficult to cope with. The Herbalife Protein drink is very easy to use prior to and post strenuous training sessions. I find it easy to digest and the effective absorption allows me full energy to get through my training session.

Andy Hill - Professional Footballer for Manchester United.
I am totally convinced that these products will help improve the sports performance of any one who uses them. Pre Season in Nevada starts in March and all my players will be using them throughout the season."

 

David Mason - Tri-athlete  The training required must reflect the distances you race hence the importance of high quality nutrition to aid recovery from intensive training which in turn leads to increased performance.  Herbalife enabled me to increase my training volume safely within a short period of time, aid recovery from hard sessions and has ultimately increased my performance. Herbalife Sports Nutrition really is THE BEST!" 

Socrates Parparinos, Cyprus - Water Polo National Team Captain The first thing that I noticed was the increased energy that I had - It was unbelievable. Water polo is a very tough sport with hours of training on a daily basis. My energy levels went up and my recovery time was astonishing.

 

Ernie Shavers - Double World Heavyweight Contender. "As I look back over my boxing career, my only regret was not having Herbalife nutritional products in my life at that time. I have used a lot of good nutritional products over the years and they have helped, but none of them gave me the energy or can compare to Herbalife nutritional products - they are the best I've ever used in my entire life.

 
Richard Boliter - Western Province U18 Rugby Player. To stand a chance of getting my provincial colors this year I needed to put on 10kg, which I did by following a strict gym program and using the Herbalife range of nutritional products daily. I use the Herbalife products for fueling, refueling, hydration and recovery and I can definitely feel a big difference in sustained energy levels during a game as well as the speed of my recovery afterwards.

Wayne Larkins, Australia - Professional Basketball Player. "Within two weeks my fans and team members saw an improvement in my performance. Now I'm able to maintain peak physical condition, even through intensive training, basketball games, lots of travel and a very hectic lifestyle!"
 

Thorsten Nickel - Actor / Martial artist "I'm an actor and martial artist (Shotokan Karate-2nd Dan) , trained in boxing and Thai boxing. My biggest movie so far would be the Jackie Chan film 'Thunderbolt' in which I'm the Co-Star, amongst others.  When you get older, recovery times slow down and energy levels seem to drop, but I learned that the right nutrition is half the battle. Herbalife fits right into my program.

Borge Ousland - "Alone across Antarctica.." To beat the elements you have to be in peak physical condition. I've achieved this with the nutritional support provided by regularly using Herbalife products, especially during my intense training periods. They provide an invaluable support on my 2845km, 64-day record making trek across the Antarctica."

Simon Baaij - 1999 Dutch Marathon Championship - Gold Medalist in the age 60-65 category "Coincidentally, the nutritional balance in Herbalife's products turned out to be the exact ratio of protein and carbohydrate recommended for marathon training by my sports physician."

 

Jeremy West - Double World Kayak Sprint Champion, Experienced Olympic Coach. " I cannot express in these few words, or really believe, how my body has changed with the Herbalife products. As an ex-professional sportsman, national coach and holder of a degree in sports science, I thought I knew all about my body and how to train and optimise it. My strength, endurance and speed have all made huge leaps forward, while my recovery times instantly went through the floor."
