Smoothies are the ultimate, convenient power food.  Whether you need an energy boost or you are gearing up (or recovering from) a hard workout, a smoothie is just the thing.  The combination of calcium and protein in milk / joghurt, combined with the fibre from fruits makes your smoothie a filling snack. 

Here are a few recipes for power smoothies:

Diet Power Smoothie (to be taken before/after a hard workout):
1 cup 2% or fat free milk
2 tbsp low fat vanilla yoghurt
2 tsp peanut butter
2 tbsp Herbalife Protein Powder
6 ice cubes
Instructions: Blend until smooth
This recipe makes 2 power smoothies. 

Banana split smoothie:
1 banana
½ cup low-fat vanilla yoghurt
1/8 cup frozen orange juice concentrate
½ cup fat free milk
2 tsbp Herbalife Protein Powder
6 ice cubes.
Instructions:  Blend until smooth
This recipe makes 2 smoothies.  Per 230ml serving: 715kj, 12g protein, 33g carbohydrates, 2g fat, 94mg sodium, 2g fibre

To take both of these smoothies from a snack to a full meal, simply add two tablespoons of Herbalife Nutritional Shake Mix!  This ensures you get a nutritionally balanced meal in a glass, convenience on the go and the added slimming benefits of a low kilojoule meal.

As much as weight loss and slimming shakes and supplements can make a difference in your weight, you still need to be the ‘operator’ that effectively uses these tools.  This includes having the correct mental, emotional and behavioural attitude.

You can ACE your weight loss by being in control of your slimming process and turning it into a lifestyle that will help you keep the weight off.  The ACE process involves:

AWARENESS:  This is about growing more in tune with your body and your motivations.  It is also an outer awareness of being aware what you eat and what the benefits/disadvantages of this food are for your body.

CHOICE: Once you have the awareness you can make the best choice that will bring you closer to your life goals.  If you want to live a long, happy and healthy life and you can choose between a packet of fried chips or a baked potato, your awareness of what option is best for you will help you to make the best choice.

EXECUTION:  Sometimes we make the choice, but don’t actually go into action around it.  I.e. you grow aware of your overweight and discomfort and decide that you want to do something, but don’t actually engage in life changing behaviour.  This is what execution asks.  Put your choice into action, today.  Not the first of the month or on Monday, from now.

The Herbalife range of products can help you to lose weight and your Herbalife Wellness coach will be available and there to support your process to ACE your weight loss.  The Herbalife Quickstart programme (includes Nutritional Shake Mix, Multivitamin, Protein Powder and Fibre & Herb tablets) can help you lose weight fast and effectively.

In our quest to diet and lose weight, a great amount of misconceptions have been formed about what dieting is and what is requires of you to slim down.  These misconceptions then often are the very things that stand in the way of a successful lifestyle change and weight loss.

Here are a few misconceptions:
1. Diet = suffering
The idea that slimming has to be a process of suffering is not correct.  It also shouldn’t be a time of starvation!  In fact, if you follow a diet that is too low in calories, you will not lose weight as your body perceives this low food content as a threat and starts to protect its fat stores – which stop you from losing weight.
Therefore, make sure you are following a nutritionally balanced diet, such as Herbalife weight loss plan, with healthy snacks that helps keep you feeling energetic and nourished.

2. You only start a diet on a Monday or first day of the month
Yes, you are probably chuckling as you read this because you have done this as well.  If you have made the decision to slim down, then start right when you have made the decision.  This will stop you from having your last binge session before your actual diet starts.  And then off course, you feel worse than terrible on your first day of the diet and you just want to quit.  Make your decision and start right away – that is the very best time.

3. Diet will control my life
This misconception is formed in thinking that your quality of life will diminish as you diet.  You might be thinking, no more eating out, no parties and fun, just dull food.  If you allow this misconception, the chances of turning your diet into a sustainably lifestyle is short of zero.  You need to take control of your life and a healthy diet forms part of this.  However, you are still in control.  This means that you have the ability and responsibility to make healthy choices that will benefit your life goals.
