I am on many a fb group to do with a medical condition that I have, many of the members are USA based.

There was a post recently about Bee Pollen being good/beneficial in reducing tumours, I would like to research this further, but a few people did talk positive of it though.

However I am also not sure if the fact that it is taken within the context of the American Healthcare system means that the benefits are over egged. (A lot of posters have difficulty accessing mainstream medical treatments) An awful lot take cannabis as well for medicinal purposes.

If I find anything (positive or negative) I will report back.

Last, could you ask mnhq if the first post could be amended to include a link to the previous thread? The threads all together contain so much brilliant information that it would be a pity if they lost contact with each other. :)

Also, could someone repost that FABULOUS link that Möbius found?
I think that Möbius is Soaring Sapphire for that.

YY: abattoir? Any ideas?

Fishboneschokus · 10/01/2016 22:00

And a link at the end of the last thread to this one?

sminkypink · 10/01/2016 22:17

We are laughing about the 'abbatoir' DP wants to know why there is no, 'zebra crossing attendant' or 'zookeeper' at the end of the list.

Bovnydazzler · 10/01/2016 22:30

I didn't realise they were selling bog standard water too! £14.76 for 12 500ml bottles (compared to, say they equivalent Highland Spring water for £3)

fastdaytears · 10/01/2016 22:31

No way! £15 on water!

acatcalledjohn · 10/01/2016 22:33

Thanks for the shiny new thread! Shall catch up shortly.

sminkypink · 10/01/2016 22:35

They'd sell cats piss for £15 I'm sure......

dreich · 10/01/2016 22:40

How much do we think it will have cost a bot to go to the QLS diamond weekend? And how much do we think FL will have made from the weekend? It's all over my FB feed, I never realised quite how many people I know are tied up with this cult. Aren't I blessed Confused

Cloche · 10/01/2016 22:40

Could someone clarify for me how much it COSTS to be a flo?

How much for personal use? Do they have to drink the water constantly as well as the gel?

Do they have to keep repeating the clean 9, which would imply that it doesn't keep the weight off?

They reckon one toothpaste per month.

How often are the 'success days' and how much do they cost?

Do they have to pay for business presentations?

EC talks about a revolving schedule of weekly training and a 'sizzle'. Do they have to pay for these?

Coffee is around £2.50 so I'd put that at £10 per session.

sminkypink · 10/01/2016 22:52

They have to pay for their shitty, shitty website. It's dreadful (DP is a web designer). Anyone know how much it is per month?
They are supposed to spend £142 a month on toiletries, Thats like, half my food budget. Its mind boggling.

LittleMissStubborn · 10/01/2016 22:54

They do seem to repeat the Clean 9

tbh the fact that it is so often repeated is the main thing that puts me off other than, you know, drinking the gloop

LittleMissStubborn · 10/01/2016 22:55

I don't spend £142 a year. Wink Birthday presents and poundland ensure a fully stocked cupboard

LittleMissStubborn · 10/01/2016 22:56

I'm not sure Wink was what I wanted, but mn doesn't offer me a sticky-out tongue.

acatcalledjohn · 10/01/2016 22:58

We are laughing about the 'abbatoir' DP wants to know why there is no, 'zebra crossing attendant' or 'zookeeper' at the end of the list.

Well, duh! A zebra crossing attendant is obvs under L for lollipop lady. Grin it's not, sadly

I spotted 'welder':

bettyberry · 10/01/2016 22:59

I just spent £70 (was all half original price) in the lush sale and I reckon that lot will last me until Easter! How can anyone spend £140 a month on that? I mean, really... unless you are buying the absolute top end on its a bonkers amount to spend.

acatcalledjohn · 10/01/2016 23:02

I love the voicemail, 'just' £10.72/month.

Bargain!

I know Bettyberry, I think even if you were a full on luxury department store skincare girl, you'd struggle to spend that. I have a big splurge when I go to Milan, for work, twice a year, in Sephora, but it's not usually more than 100 euros each time. Rest of the year, I'm a Cien girl (lidl) heh.

sminkypink · 10/01/2016 23:11

I wonder if two female friends of mine (who are both welders) have been approached. I just know they would tell them to GTFO.

Honest raw information.....oh yeah?

bettyberry · 10/01/2016 23:19

sminky a smart bot would take a thermal mug like me. I'm one of those annoying people who gets 2 coffees. One in a take away cup one in the thermal mug for later. Its efficient Grin . Not so great for work selfies :p

Even with my lush habit and the shampoo I use costing £10 I still can't get up to that amount even throwing in my make up and household cleaner usage.

acatcalledjohn · 10/01/2016 23:20

Sit back and listen...to our very carefully worded pitch designed to make you believe that our crap is more than just crap.

lastuseraccount123 · 10/01/2016 23:43

i've pm'd mnhq re: first post & adding link to this thread. i've already linked this thread to the previous one, but someone else wants to do it again feel free xo.
