Week 1: Getting Started
Welcome to our
eight-week seminar designed to assist you on your way to
successful achievement of your goals. Most of you are here
because you want to lose weight. We are proud of
Herbalife's long history of promoting weight control based
on principles of nutrition. There are literally hundreds
of "diets" you hear and read about. Bookstores
are full of the latest celebrities
"claim-to-fame" books promoting their particular
weight-loss methods.
Since 1980, Herbalife
has helped millions achieve their weight-loss goals, while
simultaneously providing balanced, complete nutritional
supplementation.
Not only do people get great weight-loss
results with Herbalife, but they get lasting results.
Herbalife isn't a "quick fix" but rather a
lifestyle choice. Are you ready to learn about our
"tried-and-true" system?
We'll outline our two Thermojetics®
Weight-Management Programs. We recognize that all people
are not alike, therefore weight-control methods must be
tailored to meet these needs. We have a system of products
that begins with healthy soy protein shakes, allows you to
eat from a wide variety of foods to lose weight steadily
while feeling great! This is our Thermojetics® Green
Weight-Management Program.
Or, choose our Thermojetics® Gold High-Protein, Low-Carb
Program, our low-carbohydrate approach that brings you a
variety of high-protein, low-carb food products allowing
you to lose weight easily while eating all day long. We'll
detail these two approaches to healthy weight loss.
Both of our programs are based upon the
revolutionary concept of Cellular Nutrition®, Herbalife's
scientifically formulated vitamin, mineral and herbal
supplements.
Research has confirmed there are many
benefits of supplementation. Achieving optimum nutritional
intake while decreasing calories is an essential aspect of
weight-loss success. Our Thermojetics® Green
Weight-Management Program utilizes the meal replacement
concept-replacing two of your three daily meals with a
low-calorie, but nutrition-packed soy protein shake
(called Thermojetics® Formula 1).
The health benefits of soy include a
potential decreased risk of cardiovascular disease with
incorporation of 25 grams of soy to your daily diet. This
is extremely important, as heart disease is the number one
cause of death in every developed country around the
world.
It's easy to get the benefits of soy with
Thermojetics® Formula 1. Simply mix Thermojetics®
Formula 1 in your favorite beverage for breakfast and
lunch. Take Thermojetics® Formulas 2 and 3
(Multivitamin-Mineral and Herbal tablets and Cell
Activator®) with your two shakes and a healthy dinner,
and you will feel great while losing weight the very first
week.
Most people begin with our QuickStart
Program, which includes Thermojetics® Formulas 1, 2 and
3, along with Thermojetics® Green Ephedra Free and Beige tablets or Total Control,. We
have two choices-Thermojetics® Green contains
Chinese herbs, which will provide added
energy boosting and appetite-controlling benefits to make
it that much easier to avoid snacking and control portion
size at dinner. If you are sensitive to caffeine and other
stimulants, you might want to choose Green Ephedra Free and Beige tablets
or Total Control,,
which is a milder version with more of the
appetite-controlling herbs and essentially no stimulant
effect. You can also add our Thermojetics® Herbal
Concentrate, a refreshing green tea drink to provide you
with a natural lift, while you adjust to changing your
eating habits.
Our Thermojetics® Gold High-Protein,
Low-Carb Program is founded on the principles of greatly
reducing your carbohydrate intake, while providing a
healthy amount of protein and beneficial fats.
This allows you to eat more frequently.
You'll feel full while losing weight with ease! Again, we
utilize Cellular Nutrition®-Thermojetics® Formulas 2 and
3, combined in the Thermojetics® Gold High-Protein,
Low-Carb Program, which includes the Thermojetics®
High-Protein, Low-Carb Shake to assure optimum nutrient
intake during weight loss. We have soups, juice drinks and
protein bars, four flavors of each, to assist you in
staying in the "low-carb zone." Please check our
Product Brochure for other Thermojetics® High-Protein,
Low-Carb products.

Week 2: Seeing
Results/Changing Habits
Losing weight
and feeling great!
You're into your second week on the Thermojetics® Success
Program and feeling a surge of energy thanks to Cellular
Nutrition®, Herbalife's exclusive nutritional approach that
provides your body with the important nutrients it needs to
function at its best. This week we address several important
concerns that can affect you when you change your diet,
whether the change is simply to reduce your caffeine
consumption, increase your vegetable intake or begin the
Thermojetics® Success Program for weight-management.
Overcoming the
challenges of dietary adjustment.
Whenever you change your diet, it's natural for your body to
go through a period of adjustment. This can be accompanied
by physical symptoms, which may include headaches,
constipation, diarrhea and hunger pangs. Herbalife's
weight-management programs are designed to minimize the
symptoms of dietary adjustment and provide you with natural
herbal-based products that can ease the transition to a new
way of eating, enhance your overall health and assist you in
achieving your weight-loss goal. Let's look at some
scenarios you may encounter as a result of changing your
eating habits and what you can do for them.
What should I
do if I get a headache on my weight-management program?
If you experience a headache as a result of dietary change
it is likely to be caused by one of two things: inadequate
fluid consumption or inadequate calorie intake. You'll be
less likely to experience this if you drink at least six to
eight glasses of water a day in addition to your shakes and
other Herbalife beverages. If you have chosen the
Thermojetics® Green Weight-Management Program, you should
use soy milk, rice milk, non-fat milk or juice to make your
shakes. Be sure that your one meal includes a good serving
of protein, such as chicken, fish or tofu, together with a
green salad and vegetables. You may also need to include one
additional snack per day. Good choices would be a
Thermojetics® High-Protein, Low-Carb Protein Bar or
Thermojetics® High-Protein, Low-Carb Roasted Soy Nuts with
Cardia® Salt.
If you are on the Thermojetics® Gold
High-Protein, Low-Carb Weight-Management Program, be sure
that you are eating every two to three hours. Choose from
the wide variety of Thermojetics® High-Protein, Low-Carb
snacks or from foods on the "Green" list for the
program.
What can I do
about constipation or diarrhea?
Any change in your diet can bring about constipation,
especially when your body is adjusting to fewer calories. If
you experience constipation, it is important to increase
your water consumption to at least eight glasses per day. In
addition, try adding one-and-a-half teaspoons of Herbalife's
Active Fiber to each shake you drink. This should help.
While dietary change may cause constipation
in some, in others it can provoke diarrhea. If diarrhea is
your concern, and you are using milk in your shakes, try
switching to soy milk or rice milk. If you are using juice,
try changing to another type-cranberry juice is a good
option. Or use soy milk or plain yogurt in place of juice
for a few days and then resume with your favorite juice once
your system has adjusted.
What should I
do when I get hungry on the program?
If you find you get hungry a few hours after your
Thermojetics® Formula 1 Shake or Thermojetics®
High-Protein, Low-Carb Shake, add two tablespoons of
Thermojetics® Performance Protein Powder to your shake
recipe. If you are on the Thermojetics® Gold High-Protein,
Low-Carb Program, you can also add Thermojetics®
High-Protein, Low-Carb Drink Mix to your shake. Each fruit
flavor (Orange, Peach Mango and Wild Berry) provides 15
grams of protein and only 70 to 80 calories. Powering up
your shake with these extra protein formulas will definitely
help you feel more full. Adding the fiber products, such as
Activated Fiber or new Active Fiber can also decrease
hunger.
Whatever challenges you
may face as a result of adjusting your diet, Herbalife has a
solution. Listen to your body and be sensitive to its needs.
Most people find that by the end of the second week on the
Thermojetics® Success Program any symptoms have cleared and
they are feeling better than they have in months.

Week 3: Activity/Exercise
Pump up your weight-loss success!
The message this week is: "Get active!" By now the great benefits of
Cellular Nutrition® are really starting to have an impact, and you're feeling
energized and excited about your progress on the program. You're experiencing
the kind of well-being and motivation you need to take your program to the next
level. That means incorporating physical activity into your routine.
Forget the excuses
People complain "I don't have enough time" or "I'm too busy to
exercise," but keeping your body active is one of the most important things
you can do for your health-especially as you get older. Regular cardiovascular
activity helps maintain muscle mass, promotes bone integrity, improves balance
and mood, increases energy levels, reduces stress and helps you feel great. Of
course, it can also speed up your weight-loss results.
Step into better health
No matter what your level of fitness, you can start to incorporate a little more
exercise into your program. If you have not exercised in a while, begin with a
simple activity such as walking for 10 to 15 minutes, three to four times a
week. Gradually pick up the pace as you get stronger. See if you can extend the
duration of your walk to half an hour or longer. When activity is sustained for
20 minutes or more, the body switches from primarily burning carbohydrates for
fuel to burning stored fat. That's great news for weight loss! Other good
physical activities include jogging, bicycle riding, rollerblading and swimming.
Choose an activity that you like to do-that will help keep you interested and
motivated to be active on a regular basis!
Muscle is an important
asset-protect it!
Unless you stay active, your muscle tissue can start to atrophy as you age-a
condition known as sarcopenia. To prevent this from happening, it's important to
stay physically active and ensure you get enough protein in your diet.
Herbalife's Thermojetics® Weight-Management Programs are designed to include
plenty of high-quality soy protein to protect your muscle mass and support your
overall health. Use the formula below to calculate the amount of protein your
body requires daily. Then, if necessary, add some Thermojetics® Performance
Protein Powder to your daily shakes to boost your protein intake. (Each serving
of Performance Protein Powder supplies approximately five grams of protein per
tablespoon.)
How much protein do you need?
For maintenance of lean muscle mass, the average person requires one gram of
protein per kilogram of body weight. (To calculate your weight in kilograms,
divide your weight in pounds by 2.2.) This is especially important during weight
loss as your muscle mass helps determine your metabolic rate-the more muscle,
the higher your metabolic rate!
Example: If you weigh 60 kilograms (or 132 pounds) your daily
protein requirement will be approximately 60 grams.
(An athlete requires between 1.25 and 1.5 grams of protein per
kilogram of body weight, depending on the number of hours of daily physical
exertion).
Ease your joints
If physical activity tends to cause aches and pains for you, try Herbalife's
popular Joint Support-Glucosamine with Herbs. It contains glucosamine sulfate to
help cushion the cartilage between joints and MSM (methylsufonylmethane) to
promote flexibility.* Taken regularly, it can help ease joint pain and support
your fitness program.*
A small commitment makes a big
difference
In addition to cardiovascular activity, add some stretching and abdominal
crunches to your daily routine. Try to do three sets of 20 crunches each day. By
the end of the eight-week program, you'll not only have created a positive
habit, but you'll also see and feel the difference.
There's no better way to understand the impact of physical
activity on your health and weight loss than to experience it. So get moving
this week and have fun!

Week 4: Life Changing/Lifestyle Changing
The Emotional Aspects of Weight
Loss
It's week four, the halfway point in our eight-week program and most of you will
have lost six to 10 pounds-congratulations! Let's explore one of the most common
"diet saboteurs" that can interfere with achieving success-emotional
eating.
Changing habits, such as being on
a weight-loss program, can be very stressful.
Changing habits is very difficult for humans-we like status quo. Whether we are
cutting down on caffeine, trying to be more consistent with exercising or
remembering to take Herbalife products three times per day, it can be hard to
incorporate new habits into your lifestyle. Acknowledge that you are under some
stress and give yourself a pat on the back as you make these changes a part of
your everyday life. And if you forget to use your Herbalife products on
occasion, just work harder to remember next time.
Develop ways to remind yourself to
do the things that are good for you. Put your Herbalife tablet box in a visible
place on your kitchen counter, or leave a note by the coffeemaker or your
toothbrush to help you remember.
It is easier "not to" do something, but we can make changes! When you
give yourself positive affirmations, you'll find yourself feeling more positive,
and before you know it, you will be more successful! Try to avoid various
situations or "triggers" that may get in the way of your success.
For example: Watching TV in the evening with all those food ads
can be difficult. Be sure you have a healthy evening meal with a balanced
serving of protein so you won't be hungry. Drink plenty of water and take two
Thermojetics® Yellows tablets after you eat-you'll be more in control!
If you find yourself really wanting an evening snack, have some
Thermojetics® High-Protein, Low-Carb Roasted Soy Nuts with Cardia® Salt or or
freeze a Thermojetics® High-Protein, Low-Carb Bar and cut it into pieces and
put half of each bar into a baggie. Just take out one baggie at a time! Or blend
Thermojetics® High-Protein, Low-Carb Chocolate Shake mix in four ounces of cold
water and refrigerate for an hour-you'll think you're having chocolate pudding
and it's only 55 calories.
Try to incorporate a bit of
activity into your after-dinner hours, especially during the summertime when it
is lighter longer.
Take the dog for a walk-you'll help your pup stay fit as well. Or go for a
bicycle ride with your family and remember to wear your helmets! Are you hungry
during the day? Add two tablespoons of Thermojetics® Performance Protein Powder
and two teaspoons of Active Fiber to your shakes. Your hunger will be a thing of
the past. And be sure you are drinking plenty of water.
If you've been eating at a
particular fast-food spot on the way home from work, change your driving route
to avoid this temptation! Be a friend to yourself-this is the most important
place to start!
For many women, cravings and appetite may increase the week before either their
period or their menses (or both). There are things you can do to lessen this
tendency. First of all, many studies suggest that adding calcium and magnesium
can lessen the cravings that go along with PMS. So add Xtra-Cal to your Cellular
Nutrition® foundation. Thermojetics® Yellows can also help-up to two, three
times per day during this time. Tang Kuei Plus and Nature's Balance Cream (ask
your Distributor about these products if you are new) can help your body find a
better balance and may normalize some of these challenges associated with a
woman's cycle.*
Some people find journaling to be
helpful or creating a "diet diary." This lets you talk to yourself on
paper.
This approach is extremely helpful, especially if you are a "stress
eater." Instead of eating through stressful situations, go to your journal
and put your thoughts on paper.
Eating Triggers
There are many reasons why we overeat, but often we are "triggered" by
something externally. It's these sudden impulses that can wreak havoc on our
desire to lose weight-and keep it off. The best defense against eating triggers
is knowledge. Once you are aware of what stimulates a craving, you can avoid
those situations and make it easier to stick to your weight-loss goal. Here are
some common eating triggers to keep in mind:
-
Television - Don't sit in front of the TV with food. We all
know that a bag of chips disappears when sitting in front of the TV. The
television must have eaten them! Right? Unfortunately, when you step on the
scale the truth of who ate them will be evident.
-
Car - Don't eat in car for the same reasons as above.
-
Family dinner - Second helpings do count, so watch your
portions.
-
Dinner at a friend's home - Talk to the host before arriving
and explain about your healthy eating plan. This way you won't offend the
host when passing on certain dishes or not taking seconds.
-
Party - Don't stand by food table. Fill yourself up with
conversation instead.
-
Shopping - Always have a shopping list with you so you
aren't tempted to stray from your healthy eating plan. Never go to the
grocery store hungry. Shop the perimeter of the store where healthier food
choices are usually on display. If at all possible, don't grocery shop with
your children as stores target high-sugar and high-fat foods at their eye
level. And always carry Thermojetics® High-Protein, Low-Carb Roasted Soy
Nuts with Cardia® Salt, Bars, Shake mix, Soup mix, Drink mix and
Thermojetics® Herbal Concentrate whenever you think you might be tempted to
overeat or if you get hungry before a meal.
Now let's talk about those
"external" saboteurs!
There are those around you who may intentionally or unintentionally get in the
way of your success. It may be your spouse, a friend or coworker. Comments like,
"You've tried so many diets. Why do you think this one will work?" or
"You look fine just the way you are!"
Remember, you are using Herbalife products to help you lose
weight and feel better about yourself. Not everyone around you may be able to
deal with you taking charge of your life, your health and your weight! Be
patient, but firm-this is for you! As you achieve good results, hopefully they
will not only support you, but also join you on the pathway to improved health
and nutrition!
We encourage you to e-mail or send us questions, your success
story and before and after pictures. Or just let us know how you are doing along
the way to your success!

Week 5: Herbalizing our Lives
Multicultural Weight Management
This week we turn our attention to our Spanish-speaking participants, as well as
to several other ethnic groups, including the Orthodox Jewish community and
African-American and Jamaican populations. We are honored to have Dr. Mario
Rosenberg participating in the program. Dr. Rosenberg is a Beverly Hills
gastroenterologist of Mexican descent who is the newest member of the Herbalife
Medical Advisory Board.
Obesity is a major trend in all parts
of the world.
The Western diet, which includes much "fast food," has permeated the
daily diets of people around the globe. As a result, we are seeing similar
trends of diseases that are related to obesity and diets high in fats and low in
nutrient value. Among the most common are Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, cancer
and kidney disease. It is conservatively estimated (by the U.S. Surgeon General
and others) that 300,000 lives could be saved every year if we could
"solve" the obesity epidemic!
Herbalife provides high-quality
nutritional supplements to help customers of all ethnic backgrounds lose weight
in a safe, healthy and effective way.
Even five weeks into the program, we have some wonderful testimonials from our
Hispanic community, many of whom have lost between 18 and 40 pounds. In general,
people of Hispanic origin tend to have a somewhat higher incidence of obesity
and therefore higher incidence of Type 2 diabetes. We also see these same trends
in people of African descent, both in the United States as well as in Jamaica.
Jamaicans win with "Gold"
Dr. Anthony Vendryes, a medical doctor from Montego Bay, Jamaica, sees great
numbers of his patients prematurely developing Type 2 diabetes and coronary
artery disease-as early as in their twenties. He has had incredible success
using the Thermojetics® Gold High-Protein, Low-Carb Program with many of his
patients. They are losing weight easily, quickly and with much less effort than
before. As they are losing weight, he is documenting many of them normalizing
their blood sugar and achieving improvements in lipids and other parameters. Dr.
Vendryes is most impressed with the success his patients are having on this
program.
Herbalife's kosher products cater to
our Jewish customers
Alan and Dava Bayum, President's Team members and Herbalife product users for 17
years, are thrilled that Herbalife provides a variety of kosher products. This
has opened up the Jewish market all over the United States, particularly in New
York City. Herbalife works with Rabbi Krause and others to be able to designate
certain products as officially kosher. Our kosher Thermojetics® Formula 1
Protein Drink Mix, as well as the majority of the Thermojetics® High-Protein,
Low-Carb products are suitable for people with even the strictest religious
concerns, allowing them to achieve improved nutrition and weight control.
Our thriving Latin community
celebrates weight-loss success.
Many of Herbalife's biggest business meetings across North and South America are
filled with Hispanic audiences. Some people using the Thermojetics® Success
Program are brand-new customers while others are using the program to re-commit
to achieving the "rest" of their weight loss.
Thermojetics® products make weight
loss easy
Our Hispanic participants speak with great emotion about how much easier it is
to eat less of the very starchy Mexican-style foods like tortillas, corn chips
and rice. Thermojetics® Herbal Concentrate, Thermojetics® Green and Beige and
Thermojetics® Gold tablets help them to overcome food cravings and achieve
effective control over their eating.*
The real Herbalife message is that
weight management centers around improving your nutrition.
Whether you use our "Gold" program, designed to help you limit your
carbohydrate intake, or our "Green" program, which uses a
meal-replacement shake for two of three meals each day, you too can gain control
with Herbalife. Our programs are designed to be easy, safe and affordable. If
you are just beginning the Thermojetics® Success Program, the Week-One Summary
will help you to learn more about our "Green" and "Gold"
Programs to determine which is right for you. You can also use our quiz to help
you decide. Then, tune in weekly to HBN or go on-line to watch the Thermojetics®
Success Program Shows in sequence.

Week 8: Celebrating Success
Thermojetics® Success Program Eight weeks to a new you-Week 8
You've reached the final week of our eight-week Thermojetics®
Success Program-congratulations! Whether you've lost five pounds or 20 pounds,
you should feel proud of your achievement and the improved health you've gained
in the process.
This week is about celebrating your success
and reviewing the elements from the program that have been most helpful for you,
so that you can maintain your weight loss or even lose more in the weeks to come
if you need to.
The power of
recommitment
As you near your weight-loss goal, it can be tempting to slack off on your
commitment. Don't. Even though you've reached week eight, now is the time to set
your goal for the weeks ahead. If you still want to continue losing weight, set
your sights on a new eight-week period and make a note of your goal for eight
weeks from now. If you simply want to maintain, use the helpful tips in our
"How to maintain, not regain" article.
Celebrate your losses
Remember the fat replicas on our week two and week seven shows? Think of each
five pounds you've lost in terms of a whole shoebox worth of fat being gone from
your body and celebrate!
Should you continue "Green"
or go "Gold?"
By now you are clear on which Thermojetics® Weight-Management Program is best
for you. If your weight loss has slowed down on the Thermojetics® Green
Weight-Management Program, you might want to consider switching to the
Thermojetics® Gold High-Protein, Low-Carb Program. Also, re-read the article
"Ten ways to break through a diet plateau" again. If your weight loss
has slowed down you may need to watch out for portion size, too many added
snacks or a lack of physical activity.
Power up with protein
Whichever program you choose, you've learned how important it is to supply your
body with good-quality protein daily to help maintain your muscle mass. Protein
is filling and therefore makes appetite control easier. Protein is also
thermogenic, which means it helps the body burn more calories because it is more
difficult to digest than carbohydrates. Like many participants in the
Thermojetics® Success Program, you may have discovered the value of adding
extra protein to your daily shakes with Thermojetics® Performance Protein
Powder. This is an especially great tip for those on the Thermojetics® Green
Weight-Management Program.
Continued ThermoSuccess Support
Remember, anytime you need extra motivation you can review the Thermojetics®
Success Program shows by clicking on the show archives. Also, keep a look out
for continued weight-loss inspiration and updates on ThermoSuccess.com.
