My Weight Loss Journey

Hello,

Welcome to my blog, my name is Ricky. My weight loss journey began 5 months ago, when i gained over a 100 pounds. I lost my job, became depressed, and food was my outlet.  I struggled with basic things like, putting on my shoes, bending over, clothes fitting me, self esteem, comments, and stares. I tried other ways of losing weight, exercise, fad diets, and not eating enough, nothing seemed to work. I had the right concept, just didnt have the right tools to be successful in my weight loss struggle. I struggled with health, constantly feeling awful, getting sick, high blood pressure, dizziness, shortness of breath. I'm sure many of you can relate to what im saying, and i hope i can inspire you to take the first steps in getting healthy again, and finally breaking the chains, weight has upon us. I'm not a nutritionist, im not a personal trainer, im not a doctor, i'm just a average Joe, who found a great natural way to lose weight, and become stronger, healthier, and hopefully live a long life. I've learned that it doesnt matter if you work out 5 days a week, if you have a poor diet.  Herba Life is all natural, it has all the nutrients the body needs to kick start your metabolism, helps you feel full, and surpresses your hunger. The protein in the shakes, and other products sustain your cravings for food. Obviously, you cannot live off of shakes alone, this is where the hard part for many of us begins, it's eating clean foods. Minimizing, starch intake, sugar intake. You will be surprised at your results, just by changing a few of your daily eating habits, eliminating soda, and drinking water instead, bake your meat, instead of frying, eat whole grain foods, instead of flour based products. Eat more greens, and less rice. These are just some of the things i've done, along with exercise and Herbal Life, and im proud to say im a different person inside and out. I feel strong, healthy and happy. It's not an easy road, But WILLPOWER, is an amazing quality to have. If you want it bad enough you will be successful, believe in yourself, and the rest will fall into place. Once your journey begins, notate your start, your progression, you will be amazed at what your hard work will do for you. Stay positive, i believe in all of you, i'm always available to answer questions, i have recipes for foods. Im here to help you, as well as give you a great price on the products i use. I'm not here to make money, instead i'm here to change peoples lives, like Herbal Life has changed mine. God bless all of you.

Sincerely,
Ricky Tiben.
