910.0. "EQUINOX Weight Control System" by POWDML::GKELLY () Wed Mar 20 1996 19:21

    I started on the EQUINOX Weight Loss System 4 weeks ago, and have lost
    15 lbs.  Needless to say, I am thrilled!  I have spent literally
    thousands of dollars on different weight loss programs...Weight
    Watchers, Jenny Craig, Nutri-System, Diet Center, etc., etc., etc.
    
    This system consists of Natural Herbal and Mineral formulas in the form
    or capsules and liquid drops (minerals).  I have NEVER had more energy
    in my life...my appetite has decreased incredibly...my stomach has
    shrunk so much!!  I still have about 40 lbs. to go, but that's o.k...
    I have so much confidence in this, it's unbelievable!  I've developed
    a lot of patience too for some reason.  Probably because I know that
    finally something is working for me, and that I don't need to panic
    about it.  It will happen in time.  
    
    I also started 2 close friends on it about 2 weeks ago and they are
    both doing so great too!  Which makes me really happy because I also
    happen to be an Equinox Distributor, and it is VERY important to me
    that what I sell to someone, I know first hand that it does work...not
    just for me, but for others that I know personally!  So this is making
    me VERY happy.  Now I can sell with confidence!!  I can be my own
    walking advertisement!! I really should take a "before" picture
    before I lose too much weight!!
    
    Anyway, I am really psyched about this.  Today is the first day of
    Spring, and I'm already well on my way to looking and feeling so much
    better!
    
    If anyone wants to ask me anything about this, drop me a line at
    POWDML::GKELLY or call me at DTN 223-8629 or 508-537-7728.
    
    Later!!
    
    HAPPY 1st Day of SPRING!!

910.3Ahhh, yesBSS::MARAFINEDare to Dream...Sat Mar 23 1996 01:2912
    Ha!  Are you KIDDING? 
    
    My old raggedy skirt's probably so tight I couldn't get it on
    over one THIGH right now!  Specially those silly under-bumpers.
    Come to think of it, the only things that even BUMP any more
    *ARE* my thighs... bump together when I walk, that is!!!!  =(
    
    Arrrrrgh!  Ha ha.  High school!  Those were the (thin) days...
    
    Smile,

910.4Way to go, Kim!!POWDML::GKELLYMon Mar 25 1996 18:4315
    I'm so happy for my friend Kim!  This is one of the friends that
    started on the Equinox system I think about 3-4 weeks ago now...she's
    lost 16 lbs!!  This really does work...of course, you have to want it
    and you have to make it work for you...nothing is magic, BUT...this
    is the closest thing I've found!  
    
    Go Kim!!

910.6have been on vacation...POWDML::GKELLYWed Apr 03 1996 01:079

    updated this! I am swamped with work today.  I'll write more
    tomorrow.
    
    Susan, I will send you some info if you'd like.

910.7Just Wondering...MAIL2::CONNOLLYWed Apr 03 1996 19:572
    Is this similar to the products that Herbalife markets?
    
910.8Got the InfoBSS::MARAFINEDare to Dream...Wed Apr 03 1996 22:5710
    Hi Gen!  Welcome back -- how was the sunny vacation?!!!
    
    Got the Equinox info you sent me in the mail last week.
    Thanks.  The products are comparable to others I've seen
    but have heard so many rave reviews on this I'll have to
    give it a try!  =)  Will contact you offline for more
    info later in the week.  Take care, everyone.
    
    Leslie
    
910.9All I know is...POWDML::GKELLYThu Apr 04 1996 20:4227
    I'm really not sure how these products compare to Herbalife since
    I have never tried Herbalife.  Herbalife has a good reputation and
    probably has very good products....but all I know is that I have tried
    many products and many programs and I can honestly say that this is
    the first one that is doing the trick....I mean, really doing the
    trick....long term that is...Jenny Craig and Nutri-System and
    whatever else I've tried were great for maybe the first week or two...
    but then it got to a point where I just gave up...it just wasn't
    something I could do longer than that for some reason...but this is
    my 2nd month, and I'm still as psyched, and full of energy as at
    the beginning...that's the big difference for me.  I just feel like
    sighing a big sigh of relief because FINALLY, I know I will be thin...
    not skinny, but healthy...all in due time.  No big hurry, and no panic. 
    I have NO doubts at all this time. I know I have found the answer...
    for me, that is.  
    
    All I know it that the Equinox Products are working really well
    for me and for 2 of my close friends...my friend Kim called me
    yesterday and she's down 22 lbs. so far! YAY KIM!
    
    If anyone else wants brochures or other info, let me know...
    I couldn't promote or sell anything I didn't believe in 100%.
    
    Gen K.  :)
    
    Good Luck to all!!

    	Not to be contrary, but how can you say that this is
    	doing the trick "long term" when it's only been two months ?

910.12Long-term=forever!POWDML::GKELLYMon Apr 08 1996 18:0118
    Hi Karen...
    
    I mean "long term" in the sense that FOR ME, I have never been able
    to stick with something for more than 3-4 weeks before becoming
    frustrated and feeling deprived, etc.  I feel none of that after over
    2 months.  I can just tell that this is something I can live with for
    much longer than everything else I've tried.  It's allowing me to
    change my eating habits fairly easily, and is helping me with my energy
    level so that I can keep up the motivation I need to keep working out.
    I guess I should have worded it differently...believe me, I know that 
    long-term means losing weight and keeping it off for several years, and
    hopefully, forever!...I think it's up to me to make sure that happens.  
    
    And I will!  :)

    	thanks for the clarification, Gen.
    
    
910.14Just checkin' in!!!POWDML::GKELLYTue Apr 16 1996 21:3127
    Hi all...
    
    Just an update...
    
    I pretty much ate what I wanted to in Florida on vacation...vacation
    is a part of life and I will NOT deprive myself of going out to eat 
    and drinking, etc. while I'm on vacation.  And I only worked out once
    while in Florida.  And for about a week after I got back, it was a
    bit of a struggle to get back into the swing of things, but...
    
    I'm back into it full swing now!!
    
    I probably haven't lost any more than the initial 15...but that's
    o.k...I don't think I've gained any either.  I haven't stepped on
    a scale in 4 weeks, but I can tell by the way my clothes fit anyway.
    
    So onward to the next 15!!!  I'd say by the end of May.  Then after
    that, I'll have only about 15-20 more to go!! YAY!!!  
    
    Just thought I'd check in and let everyone know I'm still doing
    fine!!!
    
    Hope everyone is doing o.k!!
    
    See ya!
    
    Gen K.   :)
