A 23-year-old who shifted 120lbs says it has changed his life
Daniel Lewis before and after losing 120lbs in five months with help of a health coach in Ruislip Manor
Adam Labib knew he would have his work cut out when a 38-stone 23-year-old asked for his assistance.
Daniel Lewis, from Ladbroke Grove, walked in asking for help in slimming down from 38 stones – and 63 per cent body fat.
“When someone has anything over 57 per cent body fat you are at risk of all sorts of things,” said Mr Labib.
“If, like Daniel did, you have a lot of visceral fat, surrounding vital organs, that is the fat that leads to diabetes, heart disease, high-blood pressure and high-cholesterol.
“Daniel was susceptible to all of those things and he is only 23 years-old. When he first came to see me he couldn’t walk properly because of how much he weighed.
“Over the last five months, he has changed his eating and his fitness but it’s more than that – it’s a complete lifestyle change.”
Mr Lewis has been on a strict diet of Herbalife meal replacement shakes for breakfast and lunch and healthy dinners and snacks, shifting an incredible 8½ stones.
He has been walking to work, doing light exercise and will start a more vigorous exercise regime once he has lost more weight.
"This has completely changed my life," Mr Lewis said.
"I have tried all sorts of diets before but I've never had results like this. I think it's about changing the way I think about food and my eating patterns.
"It's not just losing weight that has changed, I am less tired, my skin looks better, I have more energy."
His coach added: “When people know somebody who is overweight they just think 'that is what they are like', they don’t think about what that is actually doing to that person.
“I had to call in Daniel’s mum and his friends and say ‘If you allow Daniel to keep doing what he has been doing, you are killing him’.
“There was a lot of emotion," he said.
Mr Lewis sends pictures of himself to his coach by text message, so Mr Labib can keep up with his progress, and charts his weight loss on Facebook to share with family and friends.
“He gets lots of encouragement from friends and family which is great, but I have to be the mean one, telling him it’s not good enough yet.
“He’s got to keep going, and he will,” said Mr Labib.

TIPPING the scales at 17st 4lb, Pamela Johnson turned to Herbalife and bootcamp in a desperate bid to slim down. www.loseweighthl.co.uk
Pamela has booked a biking holiday in Austria, now she has lost the weight
WHEN biker Pamela Johnson tried on her new leather trousers and matching jacket,
she knew it was the final straw.
She was forced to buy from the men’s range because the female biking clothes only
went up to a size 8-12 and, at 17 stone and a size 20, she had no choice.
The men’s biking gear did nothing for her self-esteem as their boxy and shapeless fit made her look even bigger.
But in a desperate bid to find some biker clothes that would not only fit but would flatter
her figure, Pamela, 43, has now lost an amazing five stone.
Pamela, from Falkirk, said: “I was so fed up wearing bulky men’s clothes when I went
out riding.
“They looked really unflattering and did nothing for me. I wanted to look good on my
bike.
“My original aim was to lose it for my sister’s wedding in May last year, which was in Jamaica.
“I lost two stone by dieting and doing workouts but then I put it back on as we were
staying in an all-inclusive resort for two weeks.
“But I didn’t let that put me off as I was determined to get to a size that I was happy
with.”
In an attempt to change her life for the better, Pamela joined a boot camp and
started Herbalife in August last year.
She added: “I have struggled with my weight throughout my life and I have tried all
diet clubs with no success. My weight would constantly yo-yo. At my heaviest, I was
17st 4lb.
“I used to snack on unhealthy crisps and chocolate and I wouldn’t eat dinner until
9pm as I worked in a shop in the evenings. This wasn’t good for my diet as I was constantly snacking on sweets to keep me going until I finished work. Then, when I
had dinner, it would be fried chicken and chips or a big plate of spaghetti.
“My diet was terrible and I was eager to get into a healthier regime.
“I wanted to get fit and to feel better about myself.
“I had heard lots of good things about Herbalife but I was a bit worried as I don’t like milkshakes and I wasn’t sure how successful the diet would be for me, but it actually
turned out great.
“I really liked the milkshakes and I started losing on average 2lbs a week.
“It was so consistent and it made such a difference to my motivation and confidence.
“I’ve also been keeping up with the boot camp twice a week and personal training sessions. They have helped me keep the weight off.”
She has also completely changed her diet – now she has a shake for breakfast and
lunch, followed by a nutritious dinner with grilled chicken and vegetables.
Pamela has now lost an impressive five stone after eight months and reached size
12, which meant she was finally able to revamp her wardrobe.
Her partner Eddie Wallace also loves her new sexy, slim biker girl look. She added:
“This is the slimmest I have ever been. Even as a schoolgirl, I had to wear a size 14 uniform.
“Eddie has been really supportive and was really encouraging to me through my weight loss journey.
“The best part is that I’ve now been able to go shopping to get some new biking gear
and I have booked a biking holiday in Austria.
“It’s great to be able to wear women’s clothes when I am riding my bike. There is so
much more to choose from. No more boxy men’s leathers for me. I used to look so
square and masculine, I love my new look.
“I actually think I also might have to invest in a new bike as I no longer have the weight
to push mine.
“I’d really like to get a sporty bike as before I couldn’t ride it because of my weight.
“It’s really boosted my confidence being slimmer and I am able to get on and off my bike no problem.”
Handout
Pamela before her weight loss
As well as changing her own style, Pamela has also created a clothes swapping system for other women in her area who are in the process of losing weight.
She added: “I cater for women who needed new clothes to fit their shrinking frames but don’t necessarily want to invest in an expensive new wardrobe. When I was losing the weight, a friend gave me some her daughter’s clothes, which were a size 16. I knew I wasn’t going to be in them for very long so it was great not to have to buy something new.”
Pamela has also become a Herbalife distributor and reached supervisor position two months ago.
She added: “I feel so inspired to help people achieve their goals, just like I have. I completely changed my look and my lifestyle.
“It has really enhanced my quality of life – I am so much happier.”

Its been all over the news the last few days about NHS recommending Gastric bypass and weight loss surgery to fight obesity and type 2 diabetes...have you read what they recommend you eat afterwards? Protein shakes and vitamins for nutrition for weeks afterwards and then eventually they recommend you continue with protein shakes for great nutrition and you can add small meals of protein and colourful veg!....Guess what Herbalife recommend this now...and help you avoid gastric bands and the side effects and the chance of going under the knife to cut off saggy skin afterwards...! I know what I would be choosing if it was me...
