I met Kerri-Ann Hudson and found Herbalife

So it is nearly the end of September 2014 and I have been back on the Clean and Lean diet, going to weight watchers meetings, bought a fitbit wristband and nothing is working!  I thought 10,000 steps would be easy to achieve and the rest would follow but I can't even manage 2,000 steps on a good day, where is my get up and go???  The indigestion is under control but I daren't miss my intake of medicines…..

Our February holiday is in the back of my mind and I am not losing any weight!  Nothing is working!  I stay on a diet and behave for a week until being invited out to dinner with drinks and before I know it I am back to my hideous 11 stone.  I am wearing the same two pairs of jeans as none of my clothes fit and to top it off I am talking at an AGM next week and none of my dresses fit!  AHHHHHHH

Then I see Kerri-Ann Hudson at the school gates looking energetic, fit, slim and as always amazing.  I knew her daughter had lost three stone on her magic diet, so I stop her and say "I want to look like you"!  She made an appointment to visit me at home the day after the dreaded AGM and for once I feel that I am going to be in charge of "ME".

So the Premier Cottages AGM passed with a few comments like - "last year you were so slim" and "when are you due" but it didn't bother me as I knew I would be in control from tomorrow!

Kerri-Ann came to see me on the 14th October 2014 and I was introduced to "Herbalife".  This is it!  Another new diet my friends and family said but I knew this was "The ONE".  This is a new way of life for me and not "a fad Diet".  I will be in control of what I eat and how I look forever!

Why I needed Herbalife!

Since starting and telling everyone about Herbalife I have realised many people considered me as slim, lucky, fit and healthy but the truth was I had been in a constant battle with myself over food!

I would be either starving hungry on the "new diet" or stuffing my face constantly to fill back up again. All in all just not a happy bunny!  In fact I could tell you if I was on a diet or not completely from the date and time of year……

September would hit and I would think - "Oh no we are going on holiday in February and I need to lose at least 2 stone"  So the diet would begin…  Which one this year?

December - The diet is going well, I am nearly to my eight and a half stone goal before Christmas.

New Year - Back up to nine and a half stone after a two week Christmas/New Year binge.

February - I did it!! I hit my 8.7 stone goal ready for our annual family holiday and my holiday clothes will fit (for the first few days anyway)!

March - September - Ha ha diet - what diet?  Never again!!!  I am going to eat what I want, when I want for the rest of my life!!  I know how to enjoy the summer holidays with our children and god do I know how to eat!

September - None of my clothes fit, I am up to my 11 -11.7 stone heaviest "my god what have I done" weight and ready to find the next best diet!

I have been on every diet you can think of!  The best to date was the Clean and Lean with no sugar diet but you try staying on that one after a few drinks and forgetting to prepare with a clever supermarket fresh vegetable shop (which is so so expensive too)!

On top of the above I was having terrible indigestion and couldn't even eat after 2pm due to the pain.  The doctors had prescribed pills and after a cocktail of about 6 pills, three times a day I wasn't in pain but I was feeling terrible!
