New clients!

So I have two brand new clients, with brand new ambitions and brand new hope!

They had both tried Herbalife twenty years ago, but were completely abandoned by their distributors, so they gained the lost weight quickly again.

I managed to gain their trust, thank goodness, so they are bracing themselves for a new life!

I will call them Ellen and Anna to protect their privacy.

Ellen is a hard working woman, with a very, very demanding job. Since this is a small town I can't even tell you her occupation, then the locals who read this would immediately know who she is. Anyway, like many others, she has been on diets all her adult life. She is 60 now, and is obese. She can barely walk and I can tell that she feels dissapointed with herself. She has managed to handle things that are more difficult than most could imagine, but her weight is an ongoing battle. She really blames herself for this.

Anna is 61, and only needs to lose 5 kilo to reach her ideal BMI weight. She falls for temptation and persuasion easily, and when she stands on her scale, she feels anger, sadness and she keeps thinking 'why the hell can't I manage to lose these extra kilos? Why not?!'

In other words: her friday morning is never a happy one. She dreads that day and that morning. She says she feels great agony after she has seen her weight, that seems to slap her in the face.

I ordered her to put away the scale, since this kind of unhappiness will NOT give her a great, relaxing weekend she needs.

How come we can feel more understanding and compassionate towards our friends than towards ourselves?

I will tell you about Ellen and Anna's journey on this blog, and I know there will only be bright moments. Some moments will be hard, but never again sad and frustrating. They will do just fine, they just don't know it yet.

Thermojetics and Sweden!

Drinking a biiiig mug of Thermojetics and pondering about my first week in Sweden.

At www.succes-team.nl I downloaded an action plan, and I must say, I think I have managed to make a realistic schedule for my new healthy life as a Herbalife distributor!

If you are thinking about creating your own business and always had an interest in health, don't hesitate to contact me!

My personal schedule is a mix of spreading flyers all over the place. In shops, at hair dressers, etc, and doing a BMI check at grocery stores etc. I will also knock on doors, if I can get a permit that allows me to do so.

Furhtermore I have this health blog for new and old customers, AND I will be using social media to target new customers.

This business really is a lot of fun! You can go in all kinds of directions, whatever suits you!

Okay, I'm off to my co-sponsor, she's doing a heck of a job guiding me into this business.
Her name is Gonny and she's awesome!
