I say ugh because I have tried diets in the past, and while I'm not willing to say they didn't work, they didn't seem to have what it took to help me sustain my diet. Each time I promised myself would be different from the last, and each time I eventually gained more weight than I had initially started with. I felt like a failure and I started going down the road of self pity and depression. Then my DOCTOR told me about a weight management program called Shapeworks. Great... another diet, no thank you. Turns out, Shapeworks isn't a diet at all, it is a full health and weight management program. Still I had my doubts, but it was recommended to me by my Doctor so I decided to give it a shot. Since I've been on the program I've lost nearly 50 lbs... I feel much better, and I'm not hungry. It was the not being hungry element of the program that really surprised me. Every weight loss program claims that you can lose weight, never be hungry, eat what you want, etc and it turns out to all be lies. A couple programs start out well enough (point tracking etc) in some regards, but at the end of the day you still end up with the same problem... you're ready to gnaw off your left arm. After a while you're always hungry and the cycle starts all over again. Why? The simple answer is this: the body needs good nutrition and the food we eat today is garbage. Here's how this works in a nutshell:
The body needs certain nutrients in order to function properly. When its missing those nutrients it asks for those nutrients to be supplied which means we eat something. Now here is where the issue with our food becomes crucial... the food we eat today is nutrient deficient and so we have to eat much more food to get the nourishment the body needs. But it goes even beyond quantity... the type of nutrients that much of our food is infused with today is chemically engineered... our bodies were not designed to be fueled by chemicals... they were designed to run on good, natural, nutrients and substances. Chemical nutrients are not absorbed well by our cells and so even though we eat, and we eat, and we eat... our bodies are still in a state of nutrient starvation and so the "eat" alarm from the brain almost never stops being sounded.
And this is exactly what makes Shapeworks different... At the core of the program is Cellular Nutrition. The Doctors and Scientists at Herbalife have discovered that supplying the proper nutrients to the cells is the key for not only good weight management, but good health management as well.
And I can tell you from first hand experience that they are right... the program works and it works well. Like I said I've lost 50 lbs, I feel great, and my type 2 diabetes has vanished. If you're like me, and you've tried every other diet under the sun without success, if you've given up hope that anything can work, if you've tried everything from starving yourself to eating nothing but meat, I want to encourage you with two things:
1) You're not a failure. Not many people are aware of the condition of our food today... its causing more harm than people know
2) You can not only lose weight, but you can have better health than you've experienced in years.
Up above is a link for my herbalife website and a link for my email address. I am willing to discount any product 10% for new customers, but not only that... I will help you design a weight management program that will work for you and will coach you through your journey. Let me know if I can help...
