Which MLM does this sound like?

Someone I follow on social media is clearly in some kind of MLM. Was wondering which one. It’s some kind of food supplement.

Never mentions the name of the product. Lots of ‘inspirational’ posts about how well and healthy and fit she is these days, followed by ‘PM me for details’ type stuff.

She’s always been naturally very slim but now is exceptionally thin. All her posts are about wellness, I feel so fit these days blah blah blah . Lots of pictures of the gym / doing healthy activities and how she has discovered a lifestyle where she can eat what she likes, eat delicious meals and still feel this amazing & fit.

Posts about how she can’t wait for all her fave restaurants to reopen so she can eat all the food, pictures with huge cakes / ridiculous ice creams etc, which to be honest I doubt she actually eats very regularly given her absolutely tiny size. (I’m not criticising her size before anyone says that, I’m also very sporty & was a U.K. size 6 myself for years so I know for some people tiny is the norm and as I say she has always been naturally slim)

Lots of posts about how glad she is she quit the rat race & now has a totally flexible lifestyle working for herself.

Attends conferences that are “so motivational”

Just wondering which MLM this sounds like?

I’ve got a couple of Younique sellers etc on my Facebook but they always mention the product name

I knew someone that moved from forever to ariix and her posts were like this. Never said what it was just pm me type posts.

Isagenix?

I’m just being nosy btw!

Also another friend seems to think she’s a genuinely successful “girl boss” Hmm but it screams of MLM pyramid scheme to me

Could it be TRIM. A FB friend of mine has started selling it. The woman that recruited her is really pushy & is on her timeline every time my friend mentions it.
My friend has lost weight, but until the posts about TRIM she’d been posting about all of the exercise she’s been doing.
I researched it a bit. It seems quite a new MLM , it’s not FDA approved or vegetarian (one of the main components is chicken fat) & it’s bloody expensive.

I’ve got somebody exactly the same. It’s a definitely a wellness thing, but no product names and loads of ‘I’ll PM you’ if people comment.

She’s also a super fit size 8, as long as I’ve known her. All the before and after pics are definitely not her.

I wonder if this tactic to not name the product so that people can’t google it.

Yes this woman doesn’t even mention the fact there is a product as such - it all seems deliberately vague. But she’s clearly trying to sell /recruit people in some way.
I’m just guessing it must be a diet supplement

Sounds like Juice Plus!
