How to get the best weight loss results with Herbalife Nutrition

Herbalife products can be a great support to help you achieve weight loss results and stay in shape.

However, it is important to use the right products in the right way to ensure that you achieve the results you have set for yourself. Whether it is your first time using Herbalife or you have been using the products for a while, this article outlines the key factors that contribute to your Herbalife weight loss success.

THE BASIC PRINCIPLE OF WEIGHT LOSS

Before we dive into the nitty-gritty of your Herbalife plan, it's important to go over the basic principle of how fat loss works. In a simplified way, we consume a certain amount of calories each day from the food we eat, which provides the energy our bodies need to function. Let's call it 'calories in'. On the other side of the scale is your body, which burns a certain amount of calories each day depending on your activity level and metabolism. From your morning commute to picking up the kids from school to watching TV in the evening, your body is constantly burning calories. Let's call it 'calories out'. To burn fat, you need to consume fewer calories than your body burns, which creates what's called a 'calorie deficit'. When you're in a calorie deficit, your body will take the remaining calories needed from your reserves, which means your fat cells.

That's where the magic happens!

The reason Herbalife shakes and other products are so effective is that they contain a large number of nutrients in low calorie meal replacements that are quick and easy to prepare. This helps you achieve the desired calorie deficit without having to obsess about meal prepping and calorie counting (for most people). So, how you use your Herbalife products, how consistently and what you eat around them has a big impact on the results you can achieve.

WHICH HERBALIFE PRODUCTS TO USE AND HOW TO USE THEM?

Choosing the right Herbalife products according to your goal is the first basic step. There are different products for weight loss, sports performance or general health. With over 50 Herbalife products to choose from, which one should you choose for the best results? If your goal is weight loss, we have answered this question thoroughly in this article . In a nutshell, the basic weight loss products are:

1. Formula 1 Shake - healthy meal replacement shake
2. Protein Drink Mix (PDM) - increases protein in your F1 shake & makes it fuller
3. Thermojetics Herbal Tea - promotes fat burning & contributes to more energy
4. Herbal Aloe Concentrate - contributes to healthy digestion
5. Oats Apple Fiber - increases fiber intake, making you feel fuller for longer

The above are also ranked in order of importance. Meaning, if you can only get one product, get the Formula 1 Shake (twice a day) and add the rest of the above products when you can.

Here's what a typical Herbalife day looks like using the above products:

1. Breakfast: Shake (F1 +PDM) & Herbalife Tea with Aloe Mango
2. Mid-morning: High-protein snack

WHAT TO EAT AROUND YOUR HERBALIFE PRODUCTS?

In the above daily plan you will see that apart from Herbalife products you will still be consuming regular food on your plan in the form of snacks and a main meal. Herbalife products are very effective, but they are not magic! This means that if you are eating unhealthy foods around your products it will be difficult to see consistent results. Thus you will need to keep your food as clean as possible. For snacks we recommend aiming for around 150 calories and at least 10g of protein for women. If you are a man then aim for 200 calories and +15g of protein. For your evening meal make sure to include lean proteins, complex carbohydrates, healthy fats and plenty of vegetables. If you are a woman then aim for 500 calories and +35g of protein. For men 600 calories and +40g of protein.

TRAINING

To increase your calorie expenditure, it is a very good idea to incorporate some exercise at least 3-5 times a week. This way you will burn those extra calories to help create a larger calorie deficit. As for what exercise to do, it is really up to you. From doing a gym workout to playing soccer to going for a long walk, there are so many types of exercise to choose from. Exercises that raise your heart rate and make you sweat are good as they generally burn more calories. The important thing is that you actually enjoy the type of exercise, which will help you stay consistent.

PERSISTENCE

Speaking of consistency, it’s also one of the most important elements in getting good results on your Herbalife plan. You can easily follow the tips above, but if you don’t follow them for a consistent period of time, it will be difficult to see results. Ideally, you’ll stick to your plan day in and day out. And yes… that includes weekends and holidays! Of course, not every day will be perfect, but try to follow your plan as much as you can. The more consistent you are, the faster you’ll see results.

MAKE IT COUNT

Many customers ask us "How long should I use Herbalife products?" Unfortunately, the answer is always "It depends." It depends on your goals, starting point, consistency and other factors. However, to achieve serious results, we recommend at least 90 days. If you decide to take on a Herbalife plan, don't do it half-heartedly. Take the decision to stick to your plan like glue and you will be amazed at what you can achieve.
