I think Yawn looks fab. She dresses great for her shape, has good skin, lovely teeth, and her make up and hair always look good.

I know the intention of the posts mentioning her weight on this thread isn't to fat shame, but to point out the hypocrisy of constantly peddling expensive, useless C9s, and the fact that it's all part of the 'lie' that she's selling, but I reckon that point has been made now.

On a different note, we're now in the month where the FL accounts should be out, I will look forward to reading those...

dickiedavisthunderthighs · 01/09/2019 01:55

I agree Bovney. She's bigger than the women she's with but she's also tall which can make group photos unflattering by comparison. I just wish she'd celebrate her body rather than filter and photoshop to sell products.

Underhiseye2 · 01/09/2019 08:26

Agree that yawn is the walking anti advert for C9s. Her own photos are so heavily filtered that a group shot like this just cant hide it. And her arms

My friend was there last night. Looks like the fl bots and the other friends kept a distance from each other judging by pics I’ve seen so far.

Definitely a few non fl bots there too last night. The fl ones all wear animal print apart from one I think.

I think they all wore animal print and those pictured without had a jacket or whatever that was animal print and took it off.

Nobody is fat shaming Yawn, I'm very outspoken about her weight because the C9 is dangerous and also the effect her constant unhealthy dieting and poor body image may have on her children.

She really needs to love her body more which is the only change that needs to happen.

I'm tall and have always loved being noticable because of it. I'm usually the tallest female in a group. It does make group photos look weird though.

Gotmychocolateimgood · 01/09/2019 10:58

Where are these photos?

willdoitinaminute · 01/09/2019 11:13

Fat shaming is not the issue here it is her frank misrepresentation of the effectiveness of the product she promotes. A couple of weeks ago she was posting photos of the amazing weight loss achievable using C9. It was not my intention to fat shame merely to point this out.

External Vitality are in town selling their £200 health drinks, one of them is a green powder drink!

The leader tells the 'underlings' to beg steal and borrow for the £200 s they will earn £15k a month.

Wonder where they got the inspiration from this!

MLM mocking is truly getting more main stream now!

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 01/09/2019 14:13

I've just been to see my mum and noticed a tube of FL aloe heat gel in her bathroom Hmm.

I carefully quizzed her to find out if she'd been pressured into buying it but it seems her friend gave it to her for her back. It seems the friend's niece sells it. I explained to my mum it was a pyramid scheme (she wouldn't understand the terminology of MLM etc) and advised her to buy similar for much cheaper elsewhere.

Whiterangey · 01/09/2019 14:45

Yawn is going to do an online presentation for her bizniz on the 9th.

It's either 25 miniutes or 45 minutes depending on what part of her post you read.

She is really really desperate for new recruits. I wonder if it's for a cheque or to get 2500cc's for the rally. Either way I've never seen her this desperate.

dickiedavisthunderthighs · 01/09/2019 15:07

PhD has done her much publicised live and got a grand total of 14 comments, of which only two were people who'd watched it.

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 01/09/2019 17:32

Some more truths coming out in Roomie's latest post about money. It's interesting watching ex/semi-ex bots posts for this very reason.

When she was botted to the hilt she did the usual posts about the amazing income FL gave her....yet now she's talking about how, until January this year, she was in financial shit with debt and strife and she had a 4k credit card debt etc.

Mind you, she's still heavily into all the mindset bollocks with this new "venture" she's involved in (can't think what you'd call it ....cult? It certainly seems to involve brainwashing, love-bombing etc)

Jigsawpuzzle · 01/09/2019 17:47

When I saw PHD was over an hour I thought I’ll pass and did some baking whilst menfolk watched F1

Gotmychocolateimgood · 01/09/2019 17:55

An hour? Blimey how could anyone sit through that??

Ermmmm...

Whiterangey · 01/09/2019 18:00

If a friend of mine written the nonsense that Roomie has written about money, I'd seriously suggest she talked to someone.

It sounds insane what she is saying. It is insane.

AntiBotics · 01/09/2019 18:04

Roomie has a post about the same candles as Castle. Guarantee they were “gifted” and not declared as an ad.

evilharpy · 01/09/2019 18:36

Anyone have any experience of Body Shop MLM? A (not that close) friend has started it quite recently and is spouting all over facebook about how it's making her loads of money, she's been promoted to area manager etc etc. She's set up a group that I've been added and re-added to (after I declined).

She's a lovely person and I'm worried she's going to end up losing a lot of money but is there any chance there's any truth to it? I kind of want to warn her but don't want her to take offence and fall out with me if she's been brainwashed.

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 01/09/2019 19:05

It's all so incestuous!

Candle woman is besties with ex-FL "publisher" who published Roomie's book. There's also connections between candle woman and Newport (Castle's neck of the woods).

I'm sure there's lots more but you get the gist .....you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours

hunzuncovered · 01/09/2019 20:24

I had the pleasure of meeting castle once.

Well... I got to see up the inside of her nose as she walked by me and a friend who said hello to her.

Hoity toity nobody.

fitgirl26 · 01/09/2019 21:54

I work for a small charity. A colleague saw a post on a local FB page from a "business owner" wanting to fundraise for a charity and gave her my details. I found her in FB and she's a Bot. We can't be seen to turn down fundraising but I'm really uncomfortable with it - I have to have a meeting with her. Fml. 😔

Spongebobette · 01/09/2019 22:01

Oh no

Well you’ll know the right questions to ask..

How are you profiting from this ‘charitable’ activity? Is it helping towards your CCs?

Whiterangey · 01/09/2019 22:45

Thay is going to be tough, really tough. I really feel for you. Not much you can do really.

You know she will try and get you to sign up. It's going to be awkward. Why do they prey on charities? That sucks the most.

I never buy charity products except for if they are being sold by children or it's a charity shop.

Id rather just donate money knowing the charity will get the whole amount.
