Only a pleasure :)

Please let us know how you are doing and have a look if you can find a Herbalife-agent in your area!  Herbalife products are available world-wide and have been around for about 100 years and it is a very healthy way to gain or loose weight!

After all of my operations I took Herbalife Shakes to get my strenght back.  Food is like petrol for a car :) you need it!

All the best,

Hi there,

It is alarming to read that you eat junkfood and don't follow healthy diet, even though you want to gain weight, you still can get coronary disease (the heart getting clogged up) if your fat intake is to high.

You may have an over-active thyroid and would explain a fast motabolism or some people are born with it like Halle Berry :) but you need to get some bloodtests done, including fasting Lipogram to test your cholestorol.

A healthier way of gaining weight is drinking meal replacements after each meal, i.e. Herbalife is a good product.

Just because you are skinny does not mean you are healthy.  You also need to excercise for good overall health.

We would be very interested to hear about the outcome of your bloodtests and let us know how you are doing.
