    Progress is slow but steady, but I'm retraining myself to eat at regular intervals and not snack on sweets, chocolate, cakes and biscuits. I used to skip breakfast then overeat for lunch with cakes to fill me up, then when I got home felt too tired to start making a proper meal so again it was...

    For a variety I tried making frittata last night - my cooking skills being legendary it looked more like scrambled egg than the nice pictures I found with the recipes. At least it was tasty. I've had toffee apple and cinnamon shake for lunch and snacks today are satsumas. Weigh-in tomorrow.

    PPs herbalife diet

    Weekends - I only have shakes at breakfast, as I am usually eating with family at lunchtime. During the week it is easier to have the second shake for lunch because of being at work. It takes less time to sort lunch out as I measure out the milk and shake powder the night before and keep it in...

    Progressing nicely, lost 7lb since I started with herbalife, I'm happy with that as I only want to lose about 2 1/2 stones. I'm feeling good, & not always wanting to snack on biscuits and crisps. I've tried some of the different flavours of shakes and quite like both the cappuccino and...

    Still very warm weather, so salads still for me. Last night I had a turkey steak oven baked with my salad. I've been having frozen yogurts too, & fruit for snacks. No weight loss this week, but I have also started measuring and have a new set of scales which measure body fat. I need to up...

    Weekend - both days vanilla shake made with chocolate flavoured milk. Not an experiment I will be trying again - didn't like it. I spent the day with mum who has just returned home after spending some time with my sister & her family. Saturday lunch was bacon sandwich, tea was meat (small piece...

    Not at the moment. I am having some protein with the salads - cooked chicken, cooked pork or cheese. Also crispbreads. I am having quite a good serving of salad which I find filling. I think the main benefit for me is that I am eating practically the same for evening meal as I always used to...

    Yesterday's salad was a mix of ranch salad mix and garden salad (lettuce, cucumber, cherry tomatoes etc) plus some feta cheese. I have been buying the ready mixed salad bags, usually a couple of different varieties eg one with a mix of lettuce or other salad leaves and one ranch mix, and added...

    I'm not excluding carbs - I am cutting down on them though and trying to have wholemeal bread or pasta etc. I was given a figure based on my measurements for my suggested calorie intake and am trying to keep around that.

    How's everyone doing

    I've lost 1 & 1/2 lbs this week, making a total of 5lbs lost since I started with herbalife three weeks ago. I don't know where the weight has gone from though as I only started measuring my waist/hips etc yesterday. I am considering getting scales which show body fat to see if there is any...

    PPs herbalife diet

    I've now been on this diet for 3 weeks, although two weekends were "off diet" due to visiting relatives. I only have the vanilla flavour shakes which I mix with 1% fat milk. I didn't think I would like a whole month's worth of the other flavours - perhaps an odd one now and again for a change -...

    Anyone doing Herbalife??

    I've been having salads a lot with either slices of pork or grilled chicken, cottage cheese and crispbread. Some pasta - wholemeal if I can and some rice. Yogurt with a spoonful of peanut butter swirled in or some fruit. I've checked the calories for everything if I can find them and have kept...

    Anyone doing Herbalife??

    I've been using herbalife for the last two and a half weeks, I'm having two shakes a day and calorie counting for the third meal. I've lost 4lb so far, but haven't measured myself - I need to find the tape measure ;) I have just got the vanilla shakes - didn't fancy the other flavours - but I...
