Jaci, Be careful............ I fully ditto Tiff , Jen and Alex on this one............. There are tons of jobs out there that you can throw yourself into and get out what you put in ...not so sure this is one of them Tori

Hey Chris, That is great that y'all are going to the gym. I am so tired I can hardly stand it. I can't imagine going to the gym. Just under 2 weeks and I will be in my second trimester. I hope I get some energy back. This baby is zapping me. It is all I can do to carry my little chunk up the stairs. Weight was way up this am. I am a little puff. My rings are tight and my legs are a bit swollen. That's what I get for eating kosher dills after midnight last night, too much salt, too late at night. 215 this am That is a 3 pound gain from conception date. I hope it will come back down tomorrow, once I flush my system with some water today. Friday I had a glucose monitor insterted, it takes reading every 5 minutes. I go back this afternoon to have it removed. They upload the data compared to my glucose meter and look at my food records. This will give us a good idea of what food is impacting my sugar level. Have fun at the gym. Tell John, good for him and I said you go boy! Love Jen

Ok Guys here is the latest: Heaviest~278 lbs Now ~ 160 lbs My clothes are all tight now so My husband and I joined the gym together. He needs to lose weight and has no health insurance so I am going to post his progress here and hope it is encouraging for him... I will just say how much he loses because I do not have his permission to post his actual weight! We see a trainer and they tell us what exercise is best for us and all I have to say is boy they kicked my butt. I went Friday, Sunday and am headed out there again today. April I do not know how you do it, it is so exhausting! I give you so much credit! Hugs and good luck all! Chris

My mother is the queen of pyramid schemes and has recently become involved with this or one similair. It is a lot of work, you have to be willing to approach family, friends and strangers and speak with them about something very personal - their financials. I have seen this tear apart friendships but of course, it is how you approach it and the strength of the relationship that is key. Sales is an overall 24/7 kind of position. My 'new' job of a year is VERY sales oriented in terms of number of transactions, cold calls and approaching people regularly and repeatedly - in often an aggressive manner. Like Alex said, it is a certain skill set - and again like him, not mine. (I found I am more relational sales, building business in a softer more team oriented approach which is really business development or account management). Can you be a pit bull in your approach? Can you impose your view on people who may be manipulated, even if your product is not 100% right for that person, just to close the sale, make your quota or get them to join the pyramid??? (there are a lot of unemployed/heavily debted people out there today who desparately are looking for an 'easy' way to make money) This program will likely cost you money up front to take the classes for and be licensed. I would investigate who they see as the target audience. And are these solutions realistic to the average person in today's economy. And how many people in your area are part of this program - you dont want to get into something where the competition is tight or people have already worked your immediate area. Research on your own to validate the figures they put in front of you, we all know statistics can be manipulated to tell the story we want them to tell. Finally, do they offer any benefits like health insurance, 401k, disability insurance? What kind of training will you get in the product, sales techniques, business development? Hope this helps, happy to talk thru anything thru IM, phone or email..... Good luck!! ~Tiffany

Those are wonderful news Jen... I am happy that every thing is on track again!!! God Bless you and your babies Alex
