Janelle Brown: Smarter Than Your Average Brown (Maybe)

[Chicklet]

Just how many "resets" does this woman need? I think she hopes nobody notices because it's all a farce and she should just give it up. Isn't that pink crap supposed to make you lose weight? So which way is it Janelle?

The competition is on!  What can Sobyn come up with, to rival this?

Of course, she doesn't need to!  She's got her Grand Poobah Prize, Kootie himself.  🤮

I’d sign up if Robyn had CARNIVAL SIDESHOW RETREAT with BOOTHS where I could throw rotten eggs at Kootie as he spins on a wheel, throw baseballs at a dunk tank where Kootie lands in prairie dog poop, Nail the Tail on the jackass, a Rifle Range where you get to shoot Robyn’s Precious Moments knickknacks, Throw cow pies at Kooties face, they could also have FREAKSHOW tents with Robyn as the sperm eyebrowed woman who cries with no tears, Kootie as the ramen noodle haired man who runs in circles and accomplishes nothing… aahhhh yes good times!  😋

Oh, I dunno. I've reset myself lots of times on other weight loss programs. It's not that unusual. Not that I'm doing Plexuss, but still.

I LOVE this!  Freaks and curiosities, perfect!  ❣️

[Chicklet]

Janelle is a health "coach" and sells this Plexis crap so no, she's not like other people. She hasn't learned a thing apparently so I'm not quite sure why anyone takes her word on anything. 

[GeeGolly]

Janelle is basically doing a caffeinated colonoscopy pre-diet every few weeks. 😁🥤💩

[xwordfanatik]

As one who has had four colonoscopies, that prep is by far the most awful thing in the entire procedure.  Diarrhea for days is no way to lose weight and keep it off!  

Janelle seems to be a yoyo dieter.  That is not lasting nor healthy in the long run.  

It's like the definition of insanity that says doing the same thing over and over, and expecting a different outcome.  Or something like that!  No thanks, no sale.

I had two in 48 hours with the full prep for each. Plus I wasn't permitted to eat for five days.

I gained two pounds. 

Life is not fair.

[Gramto6]

I've had 5 (maybe 6) colonoscopies. Most of them were in CA with the ugly jug of shit water to drink and then just jello. The first one in MT was so much easier, I think I just took some pills and drank a lot of water, all I remember is it was so much easier. The next time they switched to the CA model ...ugh!. I am due next year for my next one, I am kind of hoping I can get by with a yearly FIT test. No family history of colon cancer (but breast cancer, yrs) , I have had benign polyps at each test so don't know if I can get by with it...crossing my fingers.

Maybe this should be in the Health Forum?  But it was brought up in relation to Janelle's Plexus routine...

This. 😂 I was about to say something similar, but you said it funnier!

But seriously. If Plexus is so amazing, why does she even NEED a reset? Doesn’t it absorb everything? Every season, same reset. 🙄 🤦‍♀️ 😳 

[GeeGolly]

Does anyone else think of this, every time Janelle rests?

[Chicklet]

Ha yes I have actually thought of that button but it also needs

I flash back to her squatty potty, and the fact they’re full of shit. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Oh, come off it!  Doesn't this 'reset' go for like 100 bucks?  Some Ex-Lax or similar would probably do just as well, if the goal is to shit oneself away.  Cold cure?  Sure, Jan.

[ginger90]

$149., but if you’re a VIP, $129.

Here’s the Plexus advice on how often, “How often can I do the Plexus Reset? We recommend doing the Reset monthly, every 90 days – or before or after any life event where your body and mind need a reset.”.

Here’s the page, for shits and giggles, as my father would say 😂🤣. https://shop.plexusworldwide.com/product/reset

[Chicklet]

Oh Janelle you are so pathetic. She thinks she speaks science and it's just bullshit.

And I sort of  like Janelle in a "bless your heart" kind of way.

[SunnyBeBe]

Does Jenelle really believe it or is she chatting in private with a family member saying, Of course, it doesn’t shrink my fat, but it’s just a little white lie and mama says a little white lie never hurt nobody.  As Forest would say.  Lol

This. As a science based person, before I even tried or represented a product like this I’d want to see the studies. Show it to me, or it’s snake oil.

For as smart as Janelle is sometimes, she sounds very uneducated with health.

She is uneducated. She only has that sketchy "certification" for that online program. She's using words and phrases that mean nothing.

Janelle is using someone else's words and phrases, not her own. She may know it's all crap, she may not. People believe really weird things when the promise at the end is weight loss.

[SunnyBeBe]

She was a licensed realtor, right?  I’m not sure how Nevada is, but in NC, that is a very challenging course to pass.  Then you must pass the national and state exams.  I had a strong  background in property law and still found it difficult.  Lol. She has to have something going on with smarts.  Lol

People involved with MLM's do it because it's easy and you don't have to do any work other than have parties and convince your friends to join your downline and of course sell your soul. 

If she passed the exam to be a realtor whatever brains she had were left behind in LV I guess.

Yup, and she was the listing agent for her house, and Christine’s. Quite a few price changes later, they replaced her.

[MaddyMaeboxerbabe]

I don’t have the best memory after suffer a major stroke 4 years but I seem to remember Janelle was involved in a different MLM that is popular with Mormons…a food storage type thing?  I thought she did that before her book keeping job 🤔.   Or….I can easily be very wrong 😀

There was something called EZ panty, or storage solutions, something along those lines.

I remember reading reports that she was a lazy realtor and did not engage potential buyers. She may have passed the exams, but not the personality test.

Didn't one of our posters drop by one of the houses she was trying to sell and Janelle sat in a corner reading her phone the whole time?  Was it @AZChristian?

It is impossible to have lost “some pounds” of fat and inches in just 3 days, unless one has ran a marathon each day. What it actually is — which Janelle denies — is water weight lost and *maybe* a little bit of fat lost.

Fat loss is generally slow and steady. Of course there are days of bloat and such, but it’s just that — bloat — and should not be seen as fat loss. Every health coach out there should know this. 

Sadly, promises of weight loss make people lose their logical brains. This is one thing I cannot stand about Janelle — her lack of knowledge and the promotion of this snake oil. 

[Chicklet]

Is this reset just a bunch of diuretics and laxatives? That could fix anyone's bloat, Janelle.

She doesn't, but she does realise it works miracles for her bank account. And I'm sure that makes her smile and feel good. Not drinking this crap. (If she does indeed drink it herself, which I doubt)

[65mickey]

Either Janelle  just says this crap to boost sales or maybe she has convinced herself that  all of these claims are true. However how do her customers take her seriously when she never loses her gut or shows any demonstrable weight loss? 

[65mickey]

If they sell this Coyote Pass property Janelle will probably get the short end of the stick. If she weren't lazy she is young enough to start a career away from the MLM scams. She has 5 children who are pretty much on their own now. He boys are either in college or have finished and have careers.  Savannah is the only one left at home and hopefully will be in college or a tech. school.  Janelle needs to concentrate on herself and how she will be able to support herself as she ages. Because she damn sure can't depend on her "husband."

She will get some SS benefits because she has worked. 

[xwordfanatik]

Janelle (and Christine) have never been legally married to that jackass, so should he have out-earned them? they have no claim on his SS benefits.  Meri does, and Sobyn as the current legal wife, can claim on his, should his earnings have exceeded theirs.

I worked for over 30 years total, and if I didn't also have a spouse, and a retirement income from my last job of 24 years, it would be very hard to get by on just my SS.

I hope she worked long enough in covered employment.

[65mickey]

Wouldn't their TLC earnings be subjext to FICA tax? I sure hope that they have an accountant or finacial manager looking after their earnings and not leaving it up to these dopes.

[Absolom]

This is a depends situation.  If it's all paid to a corporation/LLC then no it would not be covered employment unless their LLC pays them as wages and makes the matching contribution.  I don't think it's likely Kody is that forward thinking. They are not considered TLC employees or even employees of the production company.

[SunnyBeBe]

When did Janelle move out of the 5th wheel?

In defence of Janelle: she's the only one who worked hard in a regular job to provide the family with an income pre-TLC. Christine had a fultime job looking after all those kids, but Kody seemed to be on and off working, Meri worked parttime and Robyn did nothing.  In Vegas, she was the only one trying to find normal jobs that would secure an income, whereas the others kept dreaming of sports centres, b&b's or joolry businesses while filming the show. She also loves to spend time outdoors (lazy people don't, as it tends to make them tired and a hike is too much work) and is happy to try lots of new things like cooking. 

She may not be very successful in everything she does, and she isn't very sporty but that's not the point here. She does keep herself busy with her job, family, being outdoors and trying out new hobbies. If anyone deserves the label lazy, it seems to be Robyn. She doesn't work, never actively engages in any Brown activity and is the only one with staff at hand to run her household....
