Maybe you have tried everything and just find yourself in a space where you are so frustrated with your current weight and that you simply can’t get the weight off.  Here is advice of utilising 3 components to get the weight loss and the kilograms rolling off you.

1. Get your mind and thoughts right.
Jip, this comes before anything else.  If you have not made a solid decision with your will to lose weight, you will keep falling back on old patterns and thinking, and therefore stay exactly where you are at at the moment.  Ask yourself the following questions earnestly, write down your answers and refer back to them every time you want to cheat or quit your diet:
- Why do I want to lose weight now?
- What are the consequences of my overweight / obesity at the moment?
- What will happen long-term if I don’t lose weight now?
- What will it look and feel like when I lose the weight?
- Create a picture of yourself having lost the weight.  Not just a physical picture of what jeans you will fit in, but also a mental picture.  What emotions will you be feeling?  What will you be doing differently?

2. Decide your course of action and choose your lifestyle.
Once you’ve set your mind on losing weight, the process will just flow.  Act fast and get yourself the necessary to help you lose weight.  Clear the cupboards of sweets, biscuits, chips and all those things that you know will not help.  But don’t empty it into your stomach!  Donate it to someone.
Next step is to acquire the right things.  For a diet that really works, choose Herbalife products.  You can choose your products, supplements and weight loss enhancers to best fit your needs.  The process works as a meal replacement system, and is therefore highly convenient with two diet shakes per day.  Your Herbalife Distributor will also support you in your process and helping to choose the correct products.

3. Exercise and follow your diet
Why not improve your health while you are at it?  Experts agree that 30min of moderate exercise 3-5 times a week will not only benefit your weight loss, but also your health.  Eat healthy foods, including fresh vegetables and fruits and enjoy your delicious Herbalife shakes daily.  This will ensure that you enjoy a nutritionally balanced diet.

Whilst many people are faced with the need for weight loss and answers to obesity, those individuals who desperately want to gain weight often struggle to find the answers.  The media and focus is mostly on weight loss, leaving these individuals wondering as to a solution to their weight problem.

One of the first steps in your weight gain process is to try and determine why you are underweight.  Is there a possible illness that is causing the weight loss?  Are you using any medication that might affect your weight gain?  All these factors should be discussed with your medical practitioner.  If you are healthy, physically, emotionally and mentally and still underweight, the answer to gaining weight would be to consume more energy per day.  This means you must eat more at each meal, or have a healthy meal supplement shake as well as healthy snacks in between meals.  The Herbalife Nutritional Shake Mix and Protein Powder is a great way of supplementing your meals for extra energy.  The shakes are also packed with vitamins and minerals and they are nutritionally balanced.

Here is an example meal plan for someone wanting to gain weight:

Before breakfast:
1 cup of tea/coffee with full cream milk, 2 teaspoons of sugar and a rusk.

Breakfast:
Fruit or fruit juice (1 banana or 1 glass of fruit punch)
Cereal with milk and sugar
Egg / bacon / sausage
1-2 slices of toast with butter and jam
1 Herbalife shake (2 tbsp Nutritional Shake Mix and 1-2 tbsp Protein Powder), made with full cream milk

Tea time:
Herbalife Protein Bar
1 glass of fruit juice

Lunch:
120g meat / fish / poultry
1 potato / pasta / rice
½ a cup of vegetable
Buttered roll
Herbalife shake pie (recipe can be found in ‘Shake Recipe’ section) as desert

Afternoon tea:
Sandwich with filling (2 slices of bread with filling, i.e. egg mayonnaise)

Supper:
Fruit juice
Meat / fish / cheese / egg (80g-100g portion)
Vegetables / salad with dressing
½ cup cooked rice/pasta
1 Herbalife shake (2 tbsp Nutritional Shake Mix and 1-2 tbsp Protein Powder), made with full cream milk

Our arteries, veins and capillaries perform the very important function in your body on conveying nutrient rich blood to nourish the cells and organs in your body. But when they are blocked they can result in strokes, heart attacks which are some of the major causes of death.

Obesity is a major risk for heart disease.  Therefore, even if it was only for your heart health that you lose extra weight, that would be a good enough reason to slim down.  The Herbalife range of products can help you to lose weight with a nutritionally balanced and convenient weight loss programme.  With no calorie counting or hours in front of the stove preparing food.  With two quick meal replacements a day, you are set to go.

There are also some further lifestyle changes that you can make to support your heart health.  It is important to eat enough protein in order for your lean muscle mass to stay strong.  “Good’ fats, such as Omega 3 and 6 oil are also important for heart health.  Fish is a good source of Omega 3 oil.  You can also supplement your diet with Herbalifeline, a supplement that will fulfil your Omega oil requirements.

Also ensure that you consume plenty of colourful foods in the form of fruits and vegetables. A great way to choose your fruits and vegetables is to look at the colour.  In general, the deeper the colour of the food, the more nutrient rich it is.

In summary, here is an outline of what your action plan towards better cardiovascular health should include:

• Maintaining a healthy weight
• Make sure you get lots of antioxidants from your food (fruits and vegetables)
• Participate in some form of exercise / activity on a daily basis
• Make sure you drink enough water and get enough sleep.  A lot of restorative processes in your body happen at night when you sleep

For help with getting your action plan going, to lose weight and choose healthy supplements, your Herbalife Wellness Coach can help.  Don’t wait until it is too late!

Do you find yourself snacking after supper; maybe you even get up at night hungry with a desire to snack?  Well, my advice is that you need to close your kitchen and snack cupboards after dinner!

Studies have shown that for woman who snack after suppertime is twice as obese as their peers.  It off course depends what you eat at these midnight hours as well!  If you eat right before going to bed, your body will have to still focus on digesting the food, which might also impact negatively on restful sleep.  Similarly, if you have a whole bag of jelly beans before you go to bed, there will be no activity to burn off all the sugar in the jelly beans, and this will then inevitably be turned into fat.

If you recognise yourself in these aspects, your first step should be to build a healthy eating program that will ensure your optimal health.  This will elimate the need for snacks at night!

The Herbalife Weight Management programme offers a quick and convenient way of ensuring health, energy and nutrition.  With the combination of the Herbalife Nutritional Shake Mix, Protein Powder, Multivitamin and Fibre & Herbs, your body will get the nutrients, protein and carbohydrates it needs in a low calorie format.
Should you still find yourself having the urge at night, rather have a half/quarter shake to ensure a healthy, low calorie snack.  Prepare this before you go to bed, ensuring that you simply need to reach into the fridge and your snack will be ready.

Herbalife offers a variety of other supplements that can help you attain your best year yet.  The range includes core nutrition, as well as skin care, hair care and body care.  Let Herbalife pamper and nourish you from head to toe and inside out!

Choose balance

I was attending a presentation today and the presenter spoke about something close to my heart – balance in life.  As I was listening, I wondered what role food, nutrition and health play in my life.  If I had to ascribe a priority to it, what would it be?  Some of the other priorities could be career, recreation, spiritual growth, education, romance and intimacy, family and friends and finances.  The theory goes that we operate at our best if we sense that all these areas are in balance.

Often people contact me for help because they feel uncomfortable in their bodies.  They need to feel fit and healthy again. Or they struggle to maintain a nutritional diet.  And much more.  These are signs that the are sensing an imbalance in the nutrition & health area.

The next question off course is: If this area is not in balance, what is the impact and what are the risks.  For instance, your career might be flourishing giving you financial wealth, but you might be grosely overweight and probably have a heart attack by 40!

So my question to you:  Is your health and nutrition part of your life in balance?  And if not, what is the impact and risks of this for you?

I can really recommend the Herbalife product range.  It has helped me maintain nutritional balance.  I feel healthier, have more energy and don’t have to spend a lot of time preparing meals.  Contact me to order products that are suited to your needs.
