Homeward bound:
Shelieah Nixon badly wanted to lose weight, but the desire to work from home and spend more time with her children was even stronger. When she found out about Herbalife products and business opportunity through an ad in a local newspaper, Shelieah wound up with the best of both worlds. "Losing weight was an added bonus to being able to work at home," she says.
Weight crept on slowly but surely:
Originally it was birth-control pills that made Shelieah "blow up." And after having two children, it wasn’t any easier to get back to her old self. Shelieah tried exercise, cutting back on her food, and she even tried an off-the-shelf diet drink but it left her hungry, which only led her to binge when she came home from work. "The weight just never fell off," she explains. "And no matter what I did I just couldn’t get it off."
Finding the answer:
When Shelieah stumbled across Herbalife, she got started on the Thermojetics® Quick Start Weight Management Program and within a month had lost 17 pounds. That was enough incentive for her to step up to the Ultimate Weight Management Program. Within 12 weeks she had dropped 40 pounds and went from a size 18 to a size 6. "I am so pleased with the results," she says. "The products have changed my life."*
