How is plexus letting her get away with making these claims.   The company itself could be exposed to legal liability.   There are laws against making medical claims because of the abuses with the old time patent medicines.

I am afraid it is Plexus itself that is pushing the advertising boundaries.  That chart Jill posted looked to me like it might be something the company gave her to use.  I don't understand why no one is paying more attention to these companies.  I feel very sad for people who are paying a lot of money to find a "cure all", and that there are people like Jill who are ready to take their money.

I don't know where Jill cribs her slides from, but I report them all the time.  I encourage anyone else who sees them to do the same.

Maybe they don't know?

Just saw the video in which Jill is proudly telling us that she doesn’t “change her bed” every week like she once did. I assume she means change her sheets and if Dave is sleeping in that bed the sheets should be laundered MORE than once a week!!

so just how often DOES she “change her bed”? And how often do the kids “beds” get laundered?

Kaylee, stop with the commas. It's even worse in her stories.

I report them all the time and not a dang thing happens.

She puts them in her stories on purpose. I think it's a directive from the highers up.

Kaylee is the reigning queen of the Shatner comma. 
And by the way Kaylee, funerals don’t go well. They aren’t supposed to go well.  They are a fitting tribute, a beautiful remembrance, anything but something that “goes well”.

It could be AutoCorrect. I get a ton of commas when I speak type. But if she’s posting it for everybody to see like that, I would certainly correct it. When I do it on here or text, I don’t really go back and look because I get the same kind of things from friends and family. No one has time to go back and check every single line when it’s not going out to anybody public or important (not that you guys aren’t important but you know. I’m anonymous).

I can vouch for this in the dumbest way.  I listed a jacket for sale on ebay a few years ago, i think the listing title was "CLASSIC POLO RALPH LAUREN...." and my dumb ass didn't notice that I'd typed "VLASSIC POLO..." until it sold.  I reached out to the buyer to make sure they understood that ZERO pickles were involved lol.  (ebay negative feedback is no joke 😂) She laughed and said that interaction made her purchase so much better - and that she hadn't noticed my mistake either.

I thought it was tone deaf too.   Oh and thanks for the food.  

Jill has taught her children ZERO manners or social skills.   Mostly because you can't teach what you don't know.

[oliviabenson]

Jill is barely home so how often is she even in her bed sleeping? makes sense that she barely washes the bedding.

You haven’t lived until you’ve seen the video of the Rodrigues family doing the gestures to YMCA, while lined up in front of the uncovered television in their living room. Time I will never get back.

 

Anything else she has recently posted will get me in trouble. She’s disgusting.

[Salacious Kitty]

The YMCA video is what happens when people who aren't allowed to dance try to dance. Especially white people with no sense of rhythm, despite playing "music."

And Dave sat in his recliner to film it all. Yikes.

Do you have a link?  We could use a laugh today or most days for that matter.

It's in her stories for a few more hours. 

[merylinkid]

If it is what I think it is, posting it would violate the no politics rule.

I would love to explain to them what that song is actually about! 😂

Of course they do, but I am sure they didn't create the graphics, so they can split hairs about how THE COMPANY didn't make health claims, just THAT PERSON (who is decidedly NOT employed by them but just an independent contractor) did. 

MLMs make specious claims all the time, they know how to legally walk the line. 

[crazy8s]

Next up non whimpy Samuel and Gabriel jump roping together to Macho Man.🤣

I have not seen Phillip in mama's recent videos. I wonder if he bailed again.

[Salacious Kitty]

How about marching around to In the Navy. 

We want you as a new recruit! 😂

What a bunch of loons.

I did discover that Instagram had blocked my account for "a suspicious log on attempt."  So at least that is fixed.

[PradaKitty]

The dancing!!!

They look like inmates at the asylum…

[EmeraldGirl]

Jill is so much bigger than all of them. The non-Wimpy boys are so tiny, not to mention the skinny girls. I certainly hope she never puts any of them on the reset, but she could certainly use it herself right now.

And yay, no Philip! I hope he’s gone again and not just out of the video. I so desperately want to tell them the origin of the song. It’s killing me.

[oliviabenson]

Jill was hiding behind her kids to hide her true size. plexus and it's resets are not keeping her trim as her kids.

I also noticed Jill has on warm slipper boots while her girls are barefoot. if she has warm fleece lined slippers barndo is cold indoors.
