Female Weight Gain Stories

Before I started using the Herbalife products I had several problems that kept me back from being the best I can be. My energy was very low and I was forced to sleep in the afternoons because I just couldn't get through the day without it. I couldn't gain weight which made me feel small and insecure which affected my posture and confidence. But on top of all of this I had terrible skin. My face, chest and back were covered in huge red spots, big ugly ones. Yuck!

This had an enormous effect on me. I felt ashamed of my appearance and refused to go out and avoided all social events. I had the posture and self-confidence of a worm. People could see it and because of that they treated me like a worm.

I tried everything on the market and went from specialist to specialist spent a fortune over a period of 10 years and nothing worked. Herbalife walked into my life. I started using Herbalife's Inner Nutrition products and my life began to change. My energy skyrocketed, I didn’t need to sleep in the afternoon and I even woke up before my clock rang in the morning. It was great!

I managed to put on 5kg (that is 10 lbs. in English money) in 3 months and together with my energy-result it started to boost my confidence a little. After this fantastic results I then started using Herbalife's Outer Nutrition products and my life changed completely.

Between 15 and 17 I tried hard gaining weight. All day long I ate wholegrain bread with butter, nuts, raisins, dried fruits, anything that had calories. I did gain some fat around the bottom and my thighs. I was still very much underweight, just looking worse. My body fat % was that of an overweight person - there were no muscles on me, my spine did not grow straight because of the lacking muscles supporting it.

I learned about Herbalife through my now-boyfriend After months of scepticism the label finally convinced me that Herbalife must be healthy food. I started having one shake a day, as a healthy breakfast. I had not expected to feel any difference. But since then I am much healthier, I have more energy, I sleep shorter because my body recovers faster, and my skin improved. I was very surprised when one day - a body fat measurement showed that I had lost fat and gained a lot of muscles. About 10 % of my body mass had transformed!!! I had lost about 6 kg of fat and gained about the same in muscles!

Then I became pregnant with our daughter at the age of 19. My pregnant weight was 98 pounds due to a relapse. But I was in treatment when I became pregnant. My delivery weight was 164. After Jennifer was born I kept a very nice figure of 125. I didn't diet, I learned to take care of myself.

Three and a half years later, Tommy was born. My delivery weight with him was a whopping 263. After the birth however, I went down to a low 117. I had severe post partum depression, and saw myself back in the state I was as a teen and young adult. I also had no sexual desire.

I was treated again, and since I was also a smoker, that didn't help the situation at all. It will be 2 years this August that I have been smoke free. And since I have started using Herbalife, I have maintained the weight I needed to. I went from being 117 back to 125, but it still wasn't the ideal weight for a woman my height, but thanks to Herbalife I have stayed within 135-140, and have been working out.
