Wasn't it JonDuke that was trying to get people to buy into the same thing? And he got a BMW out of it?

Awesome. Using CP as a MLM recruiting tool....why didn't I think of that?

All those selling Herbalife, Amway/Quixstar, or any other pyramid crap, enter stage right.......

If you're promoting your business you should stick to the Power Ring.

This isn't even remotely subtle.

I have been researching Visalus for quite a few months and have been digging in the and researching the products trying to find out what all the hype is about and what is so special about these products especially the shake. Do you know what conclusion I came to after months of looking into these products, ingredients and challenge? I have amazingly discovered (can you sense my sarcasm) there is nothing special or magic about these products…let me repeat there is NOTHING special about the Body by Vi products or challenge. I would even go as far to say some products could be bad for you (even short term of only 90 days) and have a long term negative effect on your health

Visalus and Health Claims

A nutritional shake that promises to help you lose weight is under scrutiny. The Morning Edition's Leisha Grebinski has been taking a closer look at the company's products.

We don't allow MLM in the power ring, there's no good way to facilitate the point of the power ring (which is the community benefiting from the community) with that format, if someone gives an extra 5% off a product they're selling that's easy to quantify and provide, but MLM how does a CPer benefit over and above what a regular joiner would, and the benefit to the advertiser is potentially disproportionate.

This totally works though. You just have to drink these shakes, eat better than you did last year and workout/exercise more than you did. You will lose weight, feel better about yourself and score more girls. Totally worth it.

I've lost 25lbs in the last 3 months using common sense- dieting and exercise. There are obviously a number of starvation programs and gimmicks out there that work for some, but it is possible to do it with just willpower and discipline.

I have a long history of being very active and fit, but let myself go after getting married. Back on track now and feeling great. Funny though how I gained 25 after getting married and wife stayed the same.

Tell me more about this willpower and discipline thing? Are you some sort of Jedi Master?
