not sure if this belongs here... if not please move it but will be fowlling this closely

so for the last month ive been doing herbalife, ive lost approximately 10+ lbs its working great, recent i have been feeling awful today i have discovered that it has Sucralose. So a little about me ive come to find out over the last few years with artificial sweeteners that it triggers my headaches and im just not a large fan of them in general. so here is what im looking for is there any shake diets that are similar via GNC or other health stores where i can pick up product and do 2 shakes a day and maintain a healthy dinner at night, im in desprate need here as im happy that im getting close to my goal weight and even looking past it to the normal healthy weight i should be at. but i dont feel i could maintain this life style with meal prep. so any help would be great thanks

You're absolutely right. That diet is NOT sustainable. I've actually had to rehabilitate people who came off the herbalife shake diet. The problem is that shake diets in general down-regulate your metabolism due to them being dominantly liquid (not difficult to digest). That causes a brick wall because continuous long term weight loss requires boosting your metabolism. Many people do hit a goal weight, come off the diet, then gain the weight back with a vengeance due to their metabolisms being slowed to the point of metabolic damage. The only sure fire way is to strength train and eat only whole foods. This is one of the major "harsh truths" I have to dish out to many people that seek out my training where I live because of the issue you're facing. Can you really see yourself eating like this for the rest of your life.
