About Me:: Jim & Tresa Stitley
Herbalife
Together, Jim and Tresa have lost over 230 pounds!
Tresa had been a skinny kid and grew up to have a nice, slim build and never had to pay much
attention to what she ate. In fact, she would eat to try to gain weight! But a combination of a
hysterectomy, an accident and surgery with a long recuperation, depression, the side-effects of
some prescription drugs and just getting older caused her to start putting on weight. She tried
“every diet on the planet” only to lose then gain it all back plus another 25 as if for “good
measure” – like an extra birthday spank!
At a splitting size 28, over 300 pounds, Tresa was a very fat, unhappy and unhealthy Grandma.
Way too tired to play with her grandkids, she was taking naps every day. Not just 20 minute
power naps but four to five hour naps only to wake up just in time for her husband to come
home. She had such severe back pain that she had to walk with a cane or use a wheelchair. Also
suffering from a lifetime of severe asthma, hypothyroidism, high blood pressure, high
cholesterol, and fibromyalgia, Tresa was “on the fast track to a very short life.”
Then, her daughter introduced Tresa to Herbalife when she lost 25 pounds in one month of postbaby
fat! That was Tresa’s life-changing day!
In less than a week, Tresa was no longer taking any nap at all and even had energy! She just
“felt better” and it showed in her eyes! She went on to lose over 155 pounds in 15 months, went
from that splitting size 28 to a comfortable size 8 and has kept it off now for over four years!
The day she was babysitting and the school called that her oldest grandson was sick, she walked
the one block to go get him and he was shocked that his “Nana” could walk that far!
Tresa is now off 14 prescriptions including nine asthma medications, two of them steroids, the
pain patches and has given her TENS unit (pain inhibitor) and nebulizer (breathing machine) to
charity! Not only does she feel better than she has in her entire life, Tresa now enjoys her gym
membership and practices Pilates, Tai Chi, Yoga and weight-lifting regularly along with her
cardio work-outs and biking with her husband! “I just know how blessed I am to be able to
move – it’s incredible!”
Jim is a Biochemist specializing in nutraceuticals and so happy to see his wife healthier and
happier but didn’t believe he had any weight to lose. But when she was able to get off all her
asthma drugs he was so impressed that he decided as a heart attack survivor to give the Heart
Health products a try.
With Niteworks and several other Herbalife heart health products, Jim was able to stop carrying
around his nitroglycerin pills and, with his doctor’s approval, all his heart medications!
Meanwhile, he had become pre-diabetic and was suffering now from neuropathy in his legs. The
doctor wanted to give him a prescription to get his blood sugar under control.
Jim had been impressed that during the entire time that Tresa was losing the weight she never
once complained that she was hungry. He started taking Herbalife’s cellular nutrition and found
he also loved the delicious shakes Tresa was making!
Jim has now lost over 75 pounds himself and has no blood sugar problem!
“I work every day with the science and the research that is out there and I KNOW that these
Herbalife products are the BEST on the planet!” says Jim.
When friends saw Tresa losing weight and running around, they wanted to get on what she was
on and give her their money for it! A Crisis Counselor for over 30 years, Tresa had so much fun
doing Herbalife on the side and she was able to retire and work the Herbalife business only parttime
earning enough money to make the payments on their brand new beautiful home and have
money left over to do important things in life like have lunch with her girlfriends and go
shopping! They are now looking to retire Jim out of his “J.O.B.”

If I won the lottery I would....: Pay my bills, buy gifts for others, do some shopping for myself, go on a vacation with my DH, and set up a charitable foundation or two or three.
