WEEK 5 RESULTS!!!

If I'd known it was going to be this easy and this successful I would have signed up for this a long time ago.

It seemed like it was going to be a slow week for me but somehow I keep losing weight at an amazing pace.

Because I stuck to the program and didn't give into any temptation (as noted in my previous blog entry) I was able to drop just over 4 pounds in the past week.

That brings my 5 week total on the Herbal One program to just over 25 pounds lost. My "inches- lost" figure has also increased to just over 38-inches lost in 5 weeks.

Jan at Herbal One attributes my success to the fact that I stick to the program in addition to having a active lifestyle.

Some keys to remember are:

• I'm sticking to the program. This means going in to the Herbal One centre three times per week. It means taking the all my supplements and sticking to my meal plan.
• I'm not starving myself. Some people may think I must be eating next to nothing to accomplish these results - that would be wrong. It would be extremely unhealthy and dangerous. That's why I stick to the program and get monitored by the staff at Herbal One. Trust me - I get more than enough to eat - it's just much healthier than what I used to eat!
• I'm active. I play sports and attend events for work. I'm always on the move so it helps. You don't have to be active to have success on the program. It's up to you.
• THE RESULTS ARE REAL! No scams or gimmicks here folks. When I talk about the numbers they are 100% correct and accurate. It's true that not everyone will lose weight the same way, but you will lose and be succesful if you stick to the program. That's really all there is to it.

During my meeting with Jan at Herbal One today we also talked about what's coming up next for me on the program. Once I finish with the weight loss portion, then I'll move on to the stabilization portion of the program. This is the part where I'll work to mantain the weight I've acheived. It's part of the process to ensure I don't gain back the weight. This is another impressive part of the program because Herbal One wants to make sure you lose the weight and keep it off. I've actually spoken to a number of people who have had success on different dieting fads in the past, only to gain it back quickly. With Herbal One's help that won't happen to me or to you if you sign up.

I don't mean to make this blog sound like a cheesy infomercial but some of you have called and e-mailed me regarding the different options availible from Herbal One, so let's talk about those.

Everyone has different weight loss goals. Mine is 70lbs. That's quite a large goal and I therefore need the full Herbal One program. If you're someone that wants to lose maybe 20-30 lbs then the 10-week program may be for you. It's only $249.99 and if you want to stay on longer, you can apply that to a full program. Maybe you're someone that just needs to drop 5lbs fast. Herbal One has a 7-day program for $99.99 that will help you out. They also have many great items for sale like meal-replacement bars and protein bars (I'm a big fan of them!) in addition other very healthy supplements you can use.

As always, you can contact Herbal One at 748-9999 to get more info on the program or to schedule a no-hassle consultation to see if the program is for you. Remember Energy listeners get 50% off the program if you sign up by Friday February 15th!!!
