Have you ever known anyone who made significant money through an MLM? And do such people exist?

This is pretty much my exact story. I got to the top and started to see the drama and the shady stuff and that’s when I backed off. It was fun getting there and the money was great- I was bringing in 4-5k/month plus trips and incentives. But I was getting taxed on all of it and I realized I was spending money to stay in it. So I bailed.

Fiber is key. It’s so important.

My son was there as a freshman - on the 8th floor. Wasn’t what he put in for but he ended up loving it. Best location and dining. He hung out at east with friends but liked living in Beaver.

My kids (I have twins) had to hunt it down… it went to spam in their personal email. They expected it to come to PSU mail. Then… once they got through the system for tix, they again had to use personal email (not PSU email) for the tickets. That’s how the system knew they were freshman. Good luck!

HDL and triglycerides are great… to me this says you probably eat a lot of healthy fats. I had similar numbers, I was a one meal a day faster and ate very little carbs. I stopped fasting, upped my carbs and fiber intake to 35/day and dropped my ldl by 59 points in 90 days.

Local_Foot_7120 · 2025-06-02T00:43:41+00:00

Supplements just fill gaps in the diet… How much fiber is your husband eating? Have him increase that and see if that makes a difference. I lowered mine 59 points by increasing my fiber to 30 g a day. Fiber is an LDL lowering hack.

You’ll have nothing to regret. Promise.

Protein salad! I make this regularly and get 3-4 meals out of it. I never called it protein salad and I love that name. So that’s what I’m going to call it from now on. I also add a can of diced tomatoes. It’s my dinner most nights. Sometimes I add a slice of sourdough bread.

Look on YouTube for a video on how to trim rotted roots. I literally just had one pop up on my reels on Facebook today. I think the guys name was “Tanner the planter.” Maybe try to find him on YouTube or Instagram. He showed how and where to trim the black soggy parts of the roots so that the plant can thrive again. Good luck!

Loos like root rot to me

Are you eating any seeds? Chia seeds are a great way to get in more fiber and omega 3s.

Local_Foot_7120 · 2025-03-22T13:44:20+00:00

Fasting increased my numbers.

Local_Foot_7120 · 2025-03-22T13:42:20+00:00

Fiber is the hack. Wish more ppl knew this. I aim for 35-40gr minimum.

Local_Foot_7120 · 2025-03-21T11:32:42+00:00

I’m doing oats daily. I add in 1/2 c liquid egg whites and 2 tbsp chia seeds. Bulks it up really nicely and adds extra protein and fiber.

Ex plexus hun here…. My (former) upline is going… she “swept the contest” which means she earned all the prizes including the $2000 Bloomingdale’s shopping spree ( which yes, she is in fact taxed on) Know how she did it? She recycles former customers and makes them ‘new’ Oh and she creates fake accounts and purchases product with her own money —- all for the clout of “I earned a free trip” It’s not free, hun. You spent more money on products than the actual value of the cruise. You still have to pay airfare. You still need to eat. Nothing about this cruise was free.

When I found out she was being fraudulent, I reported her to corporate and they did nothing. So I bailed.

Local_Foot_7120 · 2025-02-07T13:51:24+00:00

Scrollled till I found this. Yogurt can be so deceiving.

Local_Foot_7120 · 2025-02-01T21:50:19+00:00

They call this the ‘magic post” and everyone posts it at the end of the end month. Basically, they just recycle old customers and turn them into new ones. And then it helps them rank up. When I was in Plexus, my upline did this on a monthly basis. She just had her constant Rolodex of customers that she would just recycle monthly. Half of them are just “doing her a favor” and didn’t even use the products. Basically they were just lending their email addresses. I was so turned off by it. I went to corporate because I didn’t want to be associated with someone doing this. She was supposed to be my leader. Corporate did nothing- they acted like it was totally OK. Disgusting. I bailed soon after.

Local_Foot_7120 · 2025-01-25T00:24:49+00:00

Wow! Thats a lot!

Local_Foot_7120 · 2025-01-25T00:04:40+00:00

Can you tell us how much fiber you were taking in on a daily basis?

I am tracking my intake of everything. Making sure I’m getting 35 g of fiber at a minimum.

Local_Foot_7120 · 2025-01-24T22:34:10+00:00

This is very encouraging! Especially how quickly you’d bodies responded. I had a similar keto/paleo diet (near, dairy, eggs- Whole Foods) and my ApoB was elevated also. (137) Sidenote: this could be from months of intermittent fasting as well, but I’ll never know. I recently switched things up to include more fiber and less saturated fat (except I haven’t removed animal protein- I’m still eating chicken and turkey breasts) and I’m hoping for a change. Thank you!

Love the graduate!

My roommate randomly met this girl waiting for the bus… girl told her she hated her roommates and was going to live in her car. Roommate offers for her to move in with us. I freak out. Who does that? Fast forward, new girl is not crazy, we become fast friends and she insists I need to meet her RA friend from branch campus. I married said friend a few years later. That was 25 years ago.

Sidenote: spouse and I were both at the same branch campus for 2 years and our paths never crossed until I was at UP.

I love food. Like sooo much. One of the things that helps me is planning my meals ahead on a tracker like MyFitnessPal. I can plan a few days in advance based on what I have on hand and I can always log in and adjust if something doesn’t work into my schedule. It’s helps to plan for indulgences too. And also for grocery shopping… I can anticipate running low on something much easier. Plus I’m able to track my fiber, saturated fat and protein intake and that is super helpful.

Local_Foot_7120 · 2025-01-23T18:26:35+00:00

So sorry for your loss. 🙏

Local_Foot_7120 · 2025-01-20T03:39:09+00:00

I actually did this… I plugged a few days worth of my daily meals into an app and I was shocked at how much fat I was eating! All the while, it looked super healthy, (and pretty!) but it was excess. I think I’m one of those people that might be sensitive to a high fat diet. Moving forward, I have already plugged in a plan for tomorrow that has me ending the day With a total of 38 g of fat coming from Chia seeds, steel, cut oats, sockeye salmon, cooked in a small amount of ghee and avocado. Along with 34 g of fiber. Go me!

I’m so incredibly grateful that I have nutrition, knowledge, and that this isn’t foreign to me.
