Ian's Story

Hi -  let me introduce myself to you. My name is Ian and I am married to Kelly - you have probably already read her story and seen what a difference Herbalife has made to her life – so now I’ll tell you how stumbling on Herbalife has changed mine.

Back in 2000 I was working full time in a stressful environment - 16 hour days, plus helping people with their car troubles in what spare time I had, in an effort to  make ends meet and look after my wife and 4 children, at that time, all under the age of 9.

To cut a long story short my body eventually said enough is enough and I was taken ill with pneumonia and pleurisy which had me laid up in hospital for just under 3 weeks. I was left with bad scaring to both my lungs and, whilst I returned to work and got back to some sort of normality, I could not run without getting out of breath nor could I have tickle fights with the children without coughing badly.   I accepted that this was the way things were going to be – and just carried on,

I didn't learn my lesson though I still kept working stupid hours trying to keep the family together, but in 2002 things changed dramatically when I suffered from stress and anxiety which, left me house bound.  My daughter was born just after I was taken ill, and I missed out on the first year of her life due to the illness.  It was not the best two years of my life, but I managed to pull myself together.

I then stumbled on Herbalife in 2005 and, to be honest, didn't really know what a powerful thing I had come across and sort of locked it away. Kelly was desperate to lose some weight, and decided to try the weight loss products - and when I saw what she was achieving by being on the product – it wasn’t just the weight loss, it was the increase in her energy levels that was so noticeable to me - I felt I had no other choice than to try it.

I didn't have to lose weight - but I did need to increase my lean muscle mass and get the nutrition into my system. A year before this picture was taken, I couldn't run or do anything strenuous - even walking would make me out of breath ... but within a very short time of using the Herbalife products I felt so much better - it was truly amazing!

Running our business helping people achieve the results we have seen over and over again does not stress me out.  My life is now my own and I’m living it healthy and to the full.  

Thank you Herbalife!
