At 21-years-old and 265 pounds, Jon Nickel wasn't feeling like his college years were the best of his life. "A lot of people gain the freshman 15," he says. "But I also gained the sophomore 15, the junior 15 and the senior 15. I was desperate." Finally, a friend suggested he try Herbalife. What happened next amazed him.

"The first month I lost 16 pounds. Within 8 months, I'd lost 72 pounds!"

Jon's results with Herbalife were so dramatic that he quickly became a Distributor. His mother was his first customer and soon he was also helping his fellow classmates. Today, he maintains a healthy weight and enjoys an active lifestyle he couldn't have imagined in the old days. "I go hiking and play racquetball," he says. "I love getting outside and moving around." Although he used to snack throughout the day, hitting the vending machine between every class, he hasn't gone near fast food in years. "The shakes fill me up and give me energy in the morning," he says. "I'm going to be drinking them forever."

"People ask 'How long you do have to drink the shakes?' I tell them 'As long as you want to feel great!'"

Here's How:

• Get active and support your exercise with Cellular Nutrition and Joint Support.
• Drink Liftoff™ instead of diet soda. It will give you stable energy and you won't have the urge to grab a soda.
• Break the Protein Bars in half and freeze them for snacking.

Then: 265 pounds
Now: 193 pounds - 72 pounds lost

When my husband brought it home, I thought he has gone mad. That point of time he was touching 92, 21 kg over weight from ideal one. Waching him reducing, I got a bit of confidence. Even I was over weight by 20 kgs. Started taking it. Now I m in perfect figure. In 8 months I was able to shed 20kg fat. Now I feel great, my allergy of prawns also gone, which I understood while coming back from Malaysia training. My heamoglobin that used to be 7-8 (a hereditory problem) has gone upto 14. What say, shouldnt I be positive for these amazing products. ALL THANX TO HERBALIFE. I AM PROUD THAT I ASSOCIATE WITH HERBALIFE....

"I was so over weight that I was unable to play with my 2 year old daughter, I was wearing a size 24 and weighed 101.2kg. Thankfully Herbalife entered my life and I started using the Herbalife weight management programme. My stamina began to increase whilst my weight and size began decreasing. I happily look back at the amazing results that I have achieved by being on Herbalife. I lost 25kg in 28 weeks and a total of 32kg overall. I have come down from a tight size 24 to a comfortable size 12. Yo-Yo dieting is a thing of the past, now that I know what works.

Thanks Herbalife."

Before Herbalife I was considered morbidly obese. I weighed in at 262 pounds and rising. I had Fibromyalgia, really bad acid reflux, high blood pressure, migraines a couple times a month, chronic sinus issues, irritable bowel syndrome and a serious lack of energy. I was faced with some disturbing news about my health and had to have a total hysterectomy in January of 2011. This was a wakeup call and I could not ignore my health or wish my problems away. I had tried all the other diets out there and they worked for a little while, but I quickly gained the weight back. Most diet programs just weren't realistic and/or sustainable over the long haul. 

I was introduced to Herbalife the last week in April of 2011. I was so skeptical that it would really work because of all my past failures with other programs, but I figured what have I got to lose. I found out quickly what I had to lose and it was weight and health issues. As I gave my body the incredible nutrition that the Herbalife products have to offer, one by one my health problems began to disappear and my weight began to drop. My energy level increased day by day and I wasn't hungry at all. As a matter of fact I had to remind myself to eat. 

When I introduce people to Herbalife their questions are always about counting calories or carbs, fats, etc. I have now lost 100 pounds and can safely say that I do not, nor have not. counted calories or anything else. It's as easy as 3-2-1. I take my supplements 3 times a day, I have a Herbalife shake which tastes like your favorite smoothie or milkshake two times a day and then I have a colorful meal of whatever I want. The shakes are very filling and you can replicate your favorite dessert flavor into them. I snack on high protein foods between meals and drink lots of water throughout the day. That's it. Really. There's nothing hard about this program and it works better than anything I've ever tried. When I reach my goal weight and to maintain I will have 1 shake a day and two meals and two snacks. I can't even imagine my life without taking the shakes. The nutrition is incredible and it's a great way to start your day.

So, what are YOU waiting for...let's do this! 

PS: In my before picture, I'm the one on the far right. My "after" picture is me playing around striking a pose. I haven't gotten a real good after picture because I'm still in the process of my weight loss journey. When I reach my goal weight I will have a great picture. Stay tuned :0) It won't be long now.
