Why is it that half the people I friend are trying to push shakeokogy or advocare cleanse on me? Why do so many people feel the need for this to be their Place to pimp their new products?

Seriously I can make a natrual protein shake for cheap!
I don't need to cleanse my butt with anything but broccoli!

Thank you!

If your in need of a friend hit me up, but only if you don't want to pyramid sale me anything!

    Agreed. I talk about supplements I take, but don't feel the need to push them on others... I delete those people, personally.

    You cleanse your butt with broccoli? Interesting alternative to toilet paper. To each their own.

    That's no good :(

    I've actually never had anyone on my FL try to push supplements. I'm actually a bit surprised.

    I don't like the mental picture I have of someone cleaning their butt with broccoli. I prefer toilet paper thank you! I don't like having anyone peddle their products to me. If you want to recommend something, fine, but don't follow up by saying, oh by the way, I sell it too!

    Love of money is the root of all evil.

    I'd find new friends. You can also report them. Most likely the reason they are on this site is to promote their wellness business. I am thankful that NONE of my friends are like that. I know at least one or two are affiliated with one program or another but none of these people have pushed their product on me. Yay!

    Likewise. And then it kinda grossed me out when my mind went from the digestive method to the manual method. :indifferent:

    I had a supplement pusher message the other day but it wasn't from someone on my friends list. That was the first person who tried to sell me something since I started on MFP. Sounds to me like you need to clean out your friends list.

    This. And I know from the forums and their profiles that quite a few of them are Beachbody coaches. None of them have ever tried to sell me anything.

    lol... I know, right? So annoying. I make my own shakes, as clean as it gets... cleanse: fresh produce, whole grains, fruit... if you are eating healthy, no need to "cleanse"!
