Nurse starts her nth C9 to ‘reset her body’ after putting on a stone since the last time she reset her eating habits

Be your own best customer!!

Without sounding cruel, why on earth would I pay money to be part of her vip group with all her guidance and support to lose weight?

She is the epitome of unhealthy crash dieting, not someone who should be giving advice to others.

This lady is new to the Instagram antimlm community and has a hilarious parody account

Absolutely. I pay my personal trainer to support me to lose weight, because she's an expert. She's also fit as fuck and has a body to die for. What does nurse know about nutrition, exercise and weight loss?

fromdownwest · 03/08/2020 09:08

If run a lot of ultra marathons, my running coach is an ex GB running coach, and my nutritionist an ex professional body builder with numerous degrees in nutrition.

That should be how the world works, you pay people for help and advice from people that know more than you do.

Buying some tat, slapping ‘global coach’ onto a print it yourself business card doesn’t make you anything other than a fool.

FFS my sister's sister in law has just signed up for beachbody, I'm so angry, her husband has just lost his job so I guarantee she's been prayed on with the promise of making extra money to help the family.
She is a yoga teacher too so not sure how flogging nasty ass shakes fit in with their teaching!

Norma27 · 03/08/2020 17:07

Is that lunch all for yawn? It looks nice, but if that is for one person, no wonder she can't lose any bloody weight.

Norma27 · 03/08/2020 17:09

Oh no @Charteta they are absolute vultures?
Is that in UK or USA? Seems a huge MLM in states but I don't hear much of it over here.
There are lots of YouTube vids which show how awful they are. Look at Kiki Chanel to begin with, and Not The Good Girl. Hopefully you can persuade her to watch some.

CompleteBarstool · 03/08/2020 17:13

Norma. I wondered that about Yawn's lunch too.

I remember a few times when she posted pictures of her plate that I've thought the portion sizes were massive eg. 2 pieces of salmon when we would have 1 each (even DP)

Norma27 · 03/08/2020 17:19

@completebarstool they do look lovely but I could only eat one, possibly two if I was starving.

BSintolerant · 03/08/2020 17:53

Is Yawn posting photos of food to influence her downlines to eat similarly large meals so they put on weight and feel they need to spend more money on yet another C9?

Norma27 · 03/08/2020 18:02

Wouldn't surprise me @BSintolerant

Charteta · 03/08/2020 19:30

@Norma27 UK, she's already posting every day about how amazing she looks (she has lost weight) and how easy it is to do with her little portion boxes and her aaaahmazing shakes. So totally out of character. I've warned my sister to not even buy things out of pity, but it's so sad

Norma27 · 03/08/2020 19:34

It is sad @charteta
I hope she sees the light soon.

Malin52 · 03/08/2020 20:49

Nurse last did a C9 end of April due to lockdown weight and 'reset her habits' back then apparently. She then did two days of another in June sacked that off and declared she'd start again on 1st July and posted two days of an 'exercise regime' then a picture of a big chocolate bar. She then delayed that due to being in 'the countryside' (which looks like a normal suburban home to me) so I'm not sure what guidance and support one would get.

AlexCabot · 03/08/2020 22:11

Has Broke managed to refund the woman asking for her money back?
His new scheme is screaming scam.

Gooseysgirl · 04/08/2020 13:48

Hi all! Long time lurker here... previously fell for FL purchasing before I knew about MLM. Anyway, I'm posting because to my horror although inside PMSL I have just caught my Teen Titans obsessed DC (age 6 and 8) singing along to this on Alexa My neigbour has just become a BS consultant - WIBU to let them sing this song to her...

fromdownwest · 04/08/2020 16:54

I just managed to drag myself through 10 mins of a top JP bot crying about how much she has been paid. She has been paid a £28k bonus.

Please tell me how they can pay these out? It blows my mind, is this all off the Lockdown coattails?!

fromdownwest · 04/08/2020 17:12

She goes into great detail as to how all her friends and family dumped her, and she has now proved them wrong. She thinks they don't talk about the business due to jealousy. It is quite the watch.

Maranello4 · 04/08/2020 17:48

@fromdownwest No idea! My local JP bot has also posted that she’s had her biggest ever bonus, this month, in her entire career. The last and only one she’s ever shared was about £5K. She seems to be very good at recruiting and keeping them in (and being a last artist on the side...something which she doesn’t advertise as much).

unoeufisunoeuf1 · 04/08/2020 17:53

@Gooseysgirl that is hilarious... And hideously catchy. Def think you should treat your BS bot to a loud rendition of it!

BSintolerant · 04/08/2020 19:16

@Gooseysgirl Grin

@fromdownwest how far up the pyramid is the purveyor of magic beans? Are they telling lies?

Bluewavescrashing · 04/08/2020 19:42

Nurse has already lost 4lbs in one day on her c9.

🙄

Spongebobette · 04/08/2020 19:47

She’s a fucking nurse and should know better than that

There's a new update to the Valentus YouTube video...valentus huns got very upset by the looks of it
