Janelle Brown: Smarter Than Your Average Brown (Maybe)

I’d like to see a food critic review of black eyes peas. 🧐

And THIS is the main point of my arguments against Janelle. It doesn’t bother me that she struggles — many people do. But most people aren’t pretending to be something they’re not — a qualified expert of sorts.

That’s the reason I’m so critical of her. If she were to stop faking being a health coach and selling “miracle” products, I’d let up on her. 

oh I absolutely agree with you here in general. Lots of charlatans present themselves as health coaches and healers without any decent qualifications, which is dangerous.

But here we’re talking about a morbidly obese person, who doesn’t look healthy on other aspects either. If her magic potion really worked, she’d be 100lbs lighter and look a lot healthier. So, if you’re not able to see past this very obvious b*sh*t, then you fully deserve to be swindled out of a few bucks if you ask me!

It is a lot more than a few bucks. I can't link the URL, so as Janelle would say, go Google it yourself: "Product Price Changes - 2022 – Plexus Worldwide". I wonder what percent of the costs go to the MLM "Ambassadors" and all levels of the higher ups. 

I suspect a lot of suckers become lower-level "Ambassadors" thinking they will save money on their own consumption of multicolour chemicals. Plexass promises "Unlimited earning potential", but the average Ambassador earns ~$544 per year.

I get just a bit less than that each month from my investment account and don't have to pretend to be a health coach. And having diabetes. and eating a clean low carb/high fat diet have lost over 75# since 2012 and kept it off . I have have an A1c of 5.2%. It can be done even with minimal  exercise. But it takes work and determination.

Here's the Plexus price change thing. You'll need to scroll down a bit and click the blue links for each country's pdf. I am shocked people spend that kind of money on this toxic swill!

It may prove difficult to restrain Axel, didn't Maddie refer to him as her little monkey for scaling the board fence at home?

[iwantcookies]

What’s the point of posting a pic of the gate? She was there first and they were not open yet?

[MaddyMaeboxerbabe]

Didn’t Axel break his arm falling out of a tree he had climbed?  I think I remember that!

Yes, it was after Evie had one of her surgeries, so both of them were in casts at the same time.

I cropped this, otherwise at least 80%  of it would have been the building:

[laurakaye]

This looks like a group I would steer very clear of if I saw them....well, anywhere.

Not loving the grip Maddie has on Axel, if I'm being honest.  Not suggesting anything bad, just that he looks bored/ready to run and she's grabbing his arms to keep him from taking off in the middle of the obligatory "happy family photo op."  Because the photo is the important thing - ignoring the fact that not everyone likes to have to pose for the camera.  I feel like Axel, in his limited ways, has made that clear from the very beginning.

I agree Axel looks like he’s trying to get away.

I’d also steer clear of them because they look stinky…. Caleb and Mitch need to get together and have a hillbilly beard contest 😖

Is Maddie using Axel to hide a baby bump?

Is Maddie using Axel to hide a baby bump?

It could be a baby bump, or it might be the Plexus stretching out her bladder with toxic fumes. 

[iwantcookies]

Guess Axel was ready to bolt! 

[LilyD]

It could be a baby bump, it could be a bad diet (somehow I doubt Maddie eats healthy) or it’s a bad side-effect of Plexus. It wouldn’t surprise me if it causes serious bloating of the gut.

And if she is indeed pregnant; please ditch the Plexus…

I was wondering that as well, every pic lately she’s either posed in such a way or doing something that doesn’t allow a clear view of her belly.

When have any of these people ever hidden a pregnancy? Please, that's one of the few ways they make any money.

Not sure about hiding a pregnancy in particular but they do keep some things secret for the show…. They kept Evie’s missing appendages and emergency services after her birth a secret for quite a while for the show.

I have been wondering if she has the same thing as Robyn, where one looks pregnant but they aren't sue to the abdominal muscles. I think it's diastasis recti?

(I spend so much time calling Robyn everything but her name, that I legit couldn't remember it for a minute 🤣)

Ugh. If she’s lost so much weight why is she wearing the same clothes as last year. 
I hate to think that people will actually buy this plexus shit because any weight she’s lost is because of calories. Not because of a magical pink drink.

They are probably made of a stretch denim. Most people who want to show off weight loss do not have their shirt covering the top of their pants. I think it's totally fake.

ETA: for all we know, those pix might have been taken on the same day

Edited July 9, 2022 by Teafortwo

[deirdra]

I have wide hips and a narrower waist so all store-bought pants are 1-3" too big in the waist. I could easily pose for a photo like that (but wouldn't) before putting on a belt or altering them (I leave ~90% of pants I try on at the store because they will be difficult to alter and a belt won't solve the problem). The fact that the Janelle's waistband is big but there are a dozen deep creases on the legs suggest that the crotch is too tight.  My assessment? The shorts don't fit and never did, so why take and post these stupid photos, Janelle?

The photos do look like they may have been taken the same day, just replacing her watch with a Plexass dildo.  If anything, she looks slightly fatter in the Plexass pose. Who needs a husband when you've got Plexass is what their big smiles say to me.

I had the same thought, if she’s lost so much weight that her shorts are falling off go buy a new pair.

I don’t believe her, that huge beach ball belly looks the same, no way are her shorts falling off 🙄

But in my own unique way, I have lost lbs and inches…. Your own unique way? And how much did you lose exactly? No one who is actively trying to lose weight would ever say this unless their weightloss journey is an epic failure! Oh wait, this is about Janelle….

[GeeGolly]

Usually, at least for most folks, 10lbs is a size, meaning if you gain 10lbs you'll need to go up one size and vice versa. So I guess Janelle is bragging about being 10lbs lighter a year later, which honestly is something to brag about, but I'd hardly call it a ringing endorsement for Plexus.

Edited July 9, 2022 by GeeGolly

[LilyD]

Where did you read the 10lbs? In her ‘proud’ post about loose shorts, she didn’t mention any number, hence my comment on her saying  “losing lbs and inches”. 

[ginger90]

Janelle gave a tour of her garden. For those that can’t do Instagram for whatever reason, she mentions that Savanah “really struggled with living in the RV last year.”. She’s entering her senior year and didn’t want to do it again, so they aren’t. She said the RV is in for repairs  and they will use it on weekends.

I believe this was just being used as an example.

[Absolom]

10 pounds is, I think considered mid-range, shorter, smaller people like me it's 5 to 7 pounds per size depending on the style.  For larger sizes I think it can be 15/16 pounds maybe or even a bit more for Janelle's range.

I'll buck the tide and say that I think she looks like she has lost weight. The shirt seems a bit looser than in last year's photo and I think her face also looks thinner. I think she has lost a few pounds and my hat's off to her. I'm trying very hard now to lose weight and it's freakin hard and slow. Most nights I want to eat my own leg, I'm so hungry.

Evie going to hospital after birth had nothing to do with her later 'diagnosis' of FATCO but just TTN which is really common in c-sections or in rapid vaginal deliveries which Evie was, Maddies waters broke in a parking lot and they were all worried Maddie wouldn't even make it to the birthing centre.

While this is certainly true, they knew that their baby had some medical issues. That sole fact made it highly likely that the baby would be needing medical attention, even after an uncomplicated delivery. If additional issues arise, like TTN, you're in double trouble.  Like I said before, they should not have been there at the birth center in the first place.

The thing with Janelle is, the average person struggling doesn’t have a business where they’re selling themselves as health coach. I’d have empathy for her if it weren’t for that. It’s hard to respect someone shilling something that clearly hasn’t worked and she’s been at it for YEARS now. 

[DakotaJustice]

RV in for repairs? It’s freaking brand new. 
It’s also huge - what does she plan on doing, taking it out of storage and hauling it to wherever at probably 10 mpg?

Glad to hear Janelle's maternal instincts are finally kicking in and she hears Savanah's concerns about life on the bald prairie. 

I can't imagine what life must have been like for Savanah out there, lack of privacy and social interaction, constant pressure to be aware of utilities consumption, and I wonder if even WIFI was available.  Arising at dawn to witness elk grazing in the distance would hardly qualify as stimulating to most teenagers.

[DakotaJustice]

I just had a look at the garden video. What a mess and those tomatoes aren’t even supported. It seems to me that the corn and carrots are too close together. Where are the roots supposed to be? I only grow tomatoes so I’m far from an expert in other veggies.
