Every woman, every day

Every day we make choices, some good, some bad, but when it comes to health and weight-loss, there shouldn’t be a dilemma. There are many reasons why you may want to lose weight. 

Maybe it’s time to fit into ‘those’ jeans, maybe it is to impress someone, or to get your confidence back. But we all know the best reason is to generally feel better and healthier - for yourself!

At Herbex, we’ve heard so many success stories over the years that inspired us, we thought we would share them with you this Women’s Day. Our testimonial ladies keep us inspired, not only in weight-loss, but also in life. Here’s to our women who keep us going, who share their stories and keep driving forward.

Through their stories, they’ve shown us four common character traits that we believe have helped shape their success. You may want to apply them to your own life, regardless of your goals:

Patience

Change doesn’t happen overnight. Be patient with the process. Continual small changes should be celebrated. For example: you might want to fit into a smaller size dress, but that will not happen overnight - not healthily anyway. Truth is, if you have patience and work for it, you will probably enjoy your reward even more!

Ask for help

You don’t have to do it on your own. Seek advice, seek support. Most of our testimonial ladies found that sharing their goals with a close friend or family member helped them stay "with it". There is a wealth of information out there and professionals who can help you achieve your goals. Keep your eyes and ears open and do not be too proud to ask for a helping hand.

Determination

Set your goals and make a plan. Aim high, but keep your goals realistic. It may not be easy, especially at first, but prepare yourself and work hard for it. Push yourself with determination and you will find that your hard work and perseverance will pay off.

Getting up

You might fall or make poor decisions. You might fail over and over again. Every time, get back up just one more time. You are not superhuman and it’s okay to allow yourself to make mistakes. Forgive yourself and simply try harder the next time. Love yourself enough to cheer yourself on, even when no-one else seems to notice.

You may be facing your own challenges, and struggling with obstacles. You might have different goals with different motivations, but inside every women, these traits of success are waiting to be discovered. 

We know that you are one of these inspirational women too. What will it take to motivate you to start your journey? We, and many others who have been where you are now, are here to support and encourage you. We appreciate you and your journey, no matter where you are on the road.

To the many women who have inspired us since 1995 - thank you and well done!

Happy Women’s Day to you all!
