A Plexus Slim Ambassadors (Surprising) Take on the Popular "17 Day Diet"

Should One Praise a Competitor?

In recent news, Shape Magazine covered a story originally published in "Diets in Review" which, since 2008, has rated the most popular diets. Top on their list: "The 17 Day Diet" by Dr. Mike Moreno. Second on their list, beating out Medifast, Nutrisystem, Jillian Michaels, Skinny Fiber, Biggest Loser, and Weight Watchers: you guessed it, Plexus Slim. 

How could a company like Plexus Worldwide, that you probably have never heard of accomplish this? One simple phrase: "word of mouth". But before I praise Plexus, I want to give you my honest, and maybe surprising review of the top diet, "The 17 Day Diet".

Let me give you a little background. Two years ago, I was introduced to Plexus Slim through a friend named Sonya Dudley. Actually, Sonya told my wife about it, and my wife told me. Anyway, I initially had no interest. But, through some sly tactics, my wife got me to try Plexus (which is actually a small line of products) because, as I am sure many wives feel, she wanted me to work on my "physique". Long story short, I lost weight. 43 lbs of ugly fat. And I have kept it off. I am now a full time Plexus Ambassador too. NOW, to my review.

What is Good About the 17 Day Diet?

I think the 17 day diet sounds tremendous. The name is a little misleading, given that the diet actually lasts more than 17 days, but the point is that you change your eating every 17 days. Amongst experts, it is disputed whether there is any validity to changing one's diet every 17 days in the manner suggested by Dr. Moreno actually contributing to weight loss. There are, however, a few key elements to the diet that I find most important.

1. Restricted calorie intake. It has been well documented that reducing one's calorie intake at the approprite times and with the appropriate foods can lead to weight loss.

2. Low-fat, No Carbs in the beginning. The human diet was never meant to consist of the high carb, high-fat, processed foods that people, especially Americans, have become accustomed to. The popularity of diets such as Adkins and Paleo have come about because people have sought to return to a more natural and healthy diet.

3. Excerise Required. If you are to truly follow the 17 day diet, then you must excercise. I am currently training to become a Certified Personal Trainer. One of the most astounding facts that I have encountered is that the vast majority of Americans do not come close to having enough physical activity in their day to even lead a normal life; nevermind training to become some sort of superior athlete. In times past people had more physical activity in their daily routine, because the work that they did was naturally more physically involved. In today's computer run work place, most people lead sedentary lives. This, in and of itself, is cause for alarm and is a major contributor to the growing obesity epidemic. 

How I would Recommend Using It

Yes. I would actually recommend using The 17 Day Diet. An awesome thing about The 17 Day Diet is that for the cost of a book, a person can learn it. There are no other required products to purchase. As a Plexus Ambassador, one of my goals is to educate people on living healthier lives. My only criticism of the 17 Day Diet is the same criticism I would have of many of the other diets; it is all about personal will-power and personal choice. If it were easy to make those choices, everyone would be in perfect shape. Even though Plexus Slim is listed as the second most popular diet of 2014, I have long stated that Plexus Slim is not a "diet" in the traditional sense, but more like a poweful tool to help a person get their body in "alignment" and to make better choices. In other words, Plexus Slim might actually help make doing something like the 17 day diet a lot easier. On top of that, the Plexus products are known to help people lose weight with relatively little effort in comparison to diets that require radical food selection changes. In addition, many people have found the amazing side health benefits of Plexus are really primary benefits, and Plexus is becoming famous for this as well. All things considered, I would like more of my customers to take a more serious approach to their health. Some people are so impressed with the stories of success with Plexus, that they might expect to not make any changes at all and still lose weight. While stories of this do exist in Plexus, it is not my recommendation to approach weight loss and health in this way, nor is it something that people should expect. There is a reason why people are overweight, out of shape, and sickly. 

Plexus on it's own may benefit you tremendously. But paired with a proper view of diet and excercise, you have a powerful tool for life change. Will Plexus make it easy? That is my story. I did not want to diet. I hated the feeling of being deprived. That, outwardly is what changed for me. Inwardly, Plexus helps to level blood sugars, cholesterol, and lipids. In conjuction with some of the other Plexus products, Plexus Slim can make whatever better choices you make far easier; that is my experience, and the experience of so many other people who have used Plexus, and is why I love Plexus. 

Make a better choice for your life this year. As you make your new year's resolution, make it something that can last. What if this could be your last new year's weight loss resolution?  

Betting on Plexus

The Story of Patty

Recently, my wife Michelle and I started a campaign in our affectionally named "Rock the Pink" downline organization.  The name of our campaign is "put your money where your mouth is." Michelle and I believe so firmly in the vision and direction of Plexus Worldwide, that we have already spent thousands of dollars of our own money in the last year and a half traveling, putting on meetings, creating marketing materials, and doing giveaways all in an effort to promote the Plexus line of products that has radically changed our family's lives. But, it is our belief that we can't just tell people about Plexus, we have to be willing to put something on the line too.

Tonight, as we were sitting at the table at a local grill, we were remembering just how far that Michelle's mother, Patty, had come in her health since starting Plexus. About 10 years ago, Patty came down with pneumonia right before she left for vacation to Mexico. By the time the day arrived for her to leave, Patty's doctor had cleared her to go, believing that her body had recovered enough to be able to handle the trip. While in Mexico, Patty's weakened lungs contracted a form of bacteria from the air conditioning in her hotel room, and within a couple of days Patty was admitted to a hospital in Mexico. According to the doctors there, had she tried to leave without treatment, she would have probably died on her way home. From this bacteria, Patty developed a rare condition called Legionnaires' disease.

For years, we feared we could lose Patty any day. The bacteria causes an inflammation which triggered all sorts of complication. From food allergies, to breathing difficulty much like asthma, except the attacks could sometimes last for weeks and even months. Her body became weakened to the point that she began struggling with irregularities in her heart beat. When Patty tried the Plexus products, none of us had any idea how it would impact her life, and ours.

Patty had visited many doctors in her efforts to try to get better. At one point she was told that she just needed to stay well long enough for her body to be able to heal itself. She went on very strict diets, eating the same things every day for weeks on end, with no seasonings. She was told to eat a lot of yogurt to try to get the probiotics (the good bacteria) into her system. She would go for a while, seeming to do ok, then suddenly, an attack would come on. For almost 10 years, Patty spent about 6 months out of the year sick and hardly able to leave her house.

On top of this, Patty was in a car accident that had left her with a bulging disc and annular tear in her back. The pain of this, combined with her declining health left her in a place of such misery that even as a Christian woman, she began to struggle to find any hope. We asked her to try Plexus for her back pain, and at the time, we knew very little about the products. Within 3 weeks, the back pain she had had reduced in her words "on a scale of 0-15, from an over the top 15 down to a 0 to 2." Both she and her husband Ken were blown away. She had just had a cortisone shot for which she paid $2,000 that had not even touched the pain, and here she was using this natural "fast relief" product "from the sea" and it actually worked.

Patty became a believer in Plexus because of the pain relief, but what none of us imagined possible came afterward. Patty began using Plexus Slim, and Plexus ProBio5 along with the Fast Relief product. Ingredients in both Plexus Slim and Fast Relief can help with inflammation in the body. Along with this, ProBio5 has an anti fungal and an enzyme which can fight against bad bacteria in the body, plus the probiotics the body needs to allow the immune system to function properly.

Patty has not had any long term attacks since starting this regimen. In fact, she has had only a couple of small attacks, and these only lasted from a few hours to a couple of days. Up until the Plexus products, Patty had no answer. We did not know what was going to happen to her from day to day. Now, she is living a fun and "normal" life again. There is no price for this. It is this story and several others like it that have made Michelle and I diehard Plexus people. We don't just sell it, we believe in it. It's really not just about weight loss at all to us. How could it be?

Getting Down to it

So, one reason we are betting on Plexus is because we need to make sure these products stay around for our family, and we are going to do everything in our power to make this company successful, come hell or high-water.

Another reason we are betting on Plexus, is because Plexus has already weathered some storms. When we had to change from the original Accelerator to the Accelerator+, people were worried and complained. Some blamed Plexus for the change, even though the removal of the original Accelerator was required by the FDA. Some confusion about one of the ingredients surrounds that product, but in the interest of building a long lasting and stable company Plexus did what it had to do. The Accelerator+ has been a very successful product in helping to speed up weight loss for many people. Plexus also introduced a second weight loss supplement called Boost that offers an alternative to the Accelerator+ for those who would like to try it. The factors involved with this change have made Plexus decision makers worth listening to when it comes to their opinions about what products they should bring to market. Having weathered a storm withe the FDA means that they will be more likely to recognize when another is coming, and be able to better avoid it as well. This said, Plexus' revenue reached nearly $160 million in 2013. Not bad for a company that grossed less that $300,000 in 2009. This brings me to my next reason why I am totally sold, and betting on Plexus.

With $160,000,000, no debt, and a powerful and impressive range of products, Plexus has the resources and the researchers to bring any supplemental product to the market that they wish. Therefore, despite the impatience of some, this position is an exciting prospect, given that it means that the world is available when it comes to new products. With the explosive growth and fortune of Plexus Worldwide, is there any reason to doubt that they have passed on thousands more products than what they have brought to market? In the position Plexus has attained at this point, the question is not how to bring products to people, as if some product were out of their reach, but the question is rather WHAT products SHOULD Plexus bring to people. That is a question that any company with real vision must ask. Knowing the goal of being in business is to make money, the only reason why a company would not bring a particular supplemental product to market would be that it could not make money, or that the company does not believe it is safe. Therefore, for instance, Plexus is not under the pressure that a small start up would be in that could cause them to utilize supplemental products that are more risky or unsafe; a company that has built some stability will instead look introduce products that are fit for their long term goals.

We are betting on Plexus because with the resources, the complete line of products, and the experiences under their belt, Plexus stands out as a company with the long term firmly in their grasp.

On a side note, most people are probably not aware of what it even means to be a $100 million company.

Quote from Ewing, Marion, Kauffman Foundation

"In the paper, "The Constant: Companies that Matter," Kauffman Foundation Senior Fellow Paul Kedrosky explores the rate and founding locations of companies in the United States that "matter" from 1980 to present.  

Kedrosky uses three criteria to define companies that matter: They must be scalable, quickly reaching $100 million or more in revenues; they must be able to generate jobs quickly and broadly; and, they must be disproportionate creators of wealth, both directly through profits and salaries and indirectly through equity.

"Companies unable to reach $100 million in revenues are still relevant to the economy," Kedrosky says. "But the $100-million firms meet an entirely different threshold that gives cities, states and countries an even greater economic advantage."

Anywhere from 125 to 250 companies per year (out of roughly 552,000 new employer firms) are founded in the United States that reach $100 million in revenues."

Plexus Ranks #8 on Inc. Magazine's Top 5000 - What Does it Mean?

Breaking it down

From the Inc. Website

New York based Inc. magazine, a publication which has been in circulation since 1979, publishes a yearly ranking of the top 5000 fastest growing companies in the U.S. They also highlight the top 10% with what they call the "Inc. 500". In the ranking, each company's three year growth is measured. To qualify, companies must have an annual revenue of at least $2 million in the most recent year measured. Without that revenue measurement, the list would be suspect of having any reasonable meaning. However, with that measurement, the public is able to get a glimpse into what could be the nations future top businesses, and companies that might be worth seeking out when looking for a job.

Plexus' ranking at #8 on this list is quite substantial for the company. First, that position makes them the fastest growing network marketing company in the country. An article from April of this year in Direct Selling News said, "Plexus Worldwide may be the biggest company in the direct sales industry that you’ve never heard of. But Plexus executives don’t expect that to be the case for long." Now that Inc. has published their list, it would seem that the Plexus executives are correct.

The other important note in the ranking is that among the top 10, Plexus ranked #2 in revenue last year, with $159.9 million. Fuhu, a company that makes an Android tablet for kids ranked #1 in both revenue and sales growth amongst the top 10, with $195.6 million in revenue last year.

Success from Home magazine which featured Plexus, and in which
she is also pictured.

Plexus was also recently featured in Success from Home magazine which is circulated throughout the United States at Barnes and Noble bookstores. But the sudden rise in notoriety is only bested by their own explosive growth, with a clip of 16,458% over the last three years.

Plexus vital signs are incredible. Add to their explosive growth and sudden notoriety the fact that Plexus Worldwide is also a debt free company, and you have a meal that investors would salivate over, if Plexus were public.

But you won't find Plexus stock available on the market today. Plexus has chosen to remain a private company, which means the only way that you can get a piece of the action is to become one of their distributors. And Plexus has developed it's own way of dividing up the company profits. According to  Plexus International President, Alfred Petterson, their goal was "to do network marketing the way it could and should be done." This has proven to be very lucrative for many stay at home mom's, who tend to lean toward the weight loss focus of Plexus' marketing. But don't count the dad's out. Several of Plexus' top distributors are men, and Plexus product offering expands well beyond weight loss and into other areas of health and help with pain.

The overall picture looks very good for Plexus. Though they are still in the young, growing stages of their business, they are off to a nearly unrivaled start. This fact alone gives Plexus the upper hand in the battle for strength and longevity; a promising thought for any company.

Momentum Starts in Your MIND

Definition

mo·men·tum

 noun \mō-ˈmen-təm, mə-\

: the strength or force that allows something to continue or to grow stronger or faster as time passes

Health Momentum

If you are trying to get healthy and lose weight, but you have a negative or hopeless belief about it,

you are likely to never see the results you desire. Even when you add in a product as extraordinary as Plexus, your downer mentality can sabotage your results. But, it's not magic.

I've said in countless meetings that I "only" lost 3 lbs. in the first 6 weeks after starting Plexus. I felt great, better than I had in years, but weight loss was almost absent. I've since lost 42 lbs. I have even seen people go 3 months before losing a pound. Yet, many people quit only 1 or 2 months in because "Plexus was not working". But, the things we later find out time and again with many of these are:

1. They are not drinking the recommended amount of water.

2. They are not taking the products regularly (or even at all).

3. They decide to "test" the products, and so begin eating worse than normal.

4. The products have had some positive effects, but they are concerned more with the cost and are embarrassed to say it.

5. The products have had some positive effects, but not what they were hoping for, yet.

6. Their spouse or someone close to them is very negative.

7. There are other underlying health issues which complicate weight loss that they had not divulged.

In the first three above examples, there are a couple of possibilities. First, these customers may simply be uninformed of the Plexus process. In this case, some education is necessary. The other possibility is that the person is not truly committed. They have for one reason or another agreed to "try" the Plexus products, but they never actually intended to do their part.  They could be one of the millions who have tried and failed using other weight loss products, and have become cynical toward anyone offering any kind of help.

The last four examples typically happen when a customer has the wrong expectations up front. That is why we must educate our customers and continue to talk to them throughout the process. These folks usually started the products sincerely wanting to do something for their health. But, as a Plexus Ambassador, you have to know that the job is not always going to be easy when it comes to helping people, even with the extraordinary results that Plexus has.

All of these examples come from a negative mentality. That negativity carries with it strength or force which will be the impetus to moving more quickly toward a negative result. People in poor health don't typically start that way. There is usually a negative thing that happens in their life, or in their belief which starts the ball rolling. Perhaps an accident, or the loss of a friend. Perhaps they had a difficult time after the birth of a child. Or, perhaps as a child they just were never taught proper eating habits. Poor eating habits as a child lead to health complications later in life. By the time that they decide to do something about it, like use Plexus products, they have full momentum going in the wrong direction.

So, why would someone who has tried other weight loss products want to continue with Plexus if they are not immediately seeing the results they hoped for? Because Plexus is not a weight loss company per se. Even though we have products that most definitely help with weight loss, we actually focus on health which results in weight loss. Where many companies have weight loss programs, depending on the method, that weight loss may or may not be healthy. What we are currently engaged in with Plexus is actually the process of redefining the weight loss industry. One thing we see over and over with Plexus is that people feel better first, and the weight loss is second. Many will lose many inches before they ever see weight loss. As it says on the package, Plexus Slim helps burn fat, not muscle.

Momentum comes with a positive or negative mindset, and there is no middle ground. In the first three examples above, the negative mindset has trumped any long term results the customer may see, because the customer will not use the products properly for the long term. The positive mindset says, "I am going to do what it takes. I will take the products faithfully. I will listen to my body when it says I don't need more food or more sugar. I will drink the recommended water. I will look for the positives along the way." Some people do not need to lose weight to be healthy. But improvements in their health will show in inches lost, reduction in medications, clearer skin, more energy and vitality, better sleep, a clearer mind, less mood swings, less pain, a happier disposition, and many other things that have all been attested to by Plexus users.

What happens with the positive mindset is amazing. A person takes the products and first of all, they feel better, not always, but very often. Some might not feel much, but they see inches lost, or a few pounds lost, or will be sleeping better, or will not be as hungry, or some random thing that they had not expected will change in their health. They feel happier and more content. Momentum has begun. For me, because I was not as hungry, I felt that I could eat better. So, I did. When I started eating better, I started feeling better. This naturally led to me feeling more energized, which made me want to get out and play with my kids. The exercise led to me feeling younger, and even more energized, so I decided to start working out. See the progression? This is momentum! It started by taking the products, mixed with a positive mentality. It has led to eating better, feeling better, playing more with my kids, and working out. All things that were difficult to do alone. The positive mentality provides the strength and power which will be the impetus to move ever more quickly and easily toward positive results, at which point you can no longer tell what is your effort, what is the product's effort, and what is just the momentum.

Business Momentum

The same goes for your business.  If your mentality is positive, it allows for other good things to happen. But if, on the other hand, you have a negative mentality, it is guaranteed that if you keep it, you will sabotage your own efforts. On the outside, you may be doing everything "right", but you find yourself tending to believe the negative things other people say, and your self-talk sounds fearful. You might not say "negative" things to the public, but maybe you have to your spouse. You find yourself wanting to read negative things, and you find some sort of comfort in it. This is an indication that your mind is looking for an excuse to quit. Like it or not, that attitude comes through to other people. No one can make you keep going; you are free to quit. But, don't make excuses. There are people who will be successful who had far less training, equipping, tools, resources, and help than you.

A positive business mindset believes that there is a solution to every problem. It may not always readily present itself, but through effort, time, and thought a solution will come. The positive business mindset understands and believes in the principle of sewing and reaping. It knows that all seeds must have time to grow. It also knows that there will be thorns, thistles, and weeds to contend with, but harvest will come. The momentum comes when people align themselves with these beliefs. When we talk, we sound more confident. We instill belief in others. Others take what we have given and then start off with a positive mindset, which begins their momentum, which strengthens our own. Momentum starts in your mind. And through a positive mentality we gear ourselves toward the type of success we desire.

Two Recent Plexus Slim Testimonies!

Plexus Slim Works.

Plexus Slim works differently for every person. We love to hear stories of amazing, fast weight loss. But, because Plexus works to remove barriers that are prohibiting the body's natural mechanisms for maintaining proper weight, each persons response time can be different. The beauty of this is that many people claim to experience more than just weight loss. As their bodies "come into proper alignment", people testify to incredible health changes. 

Using Plexus Since October

Yet another recent Plexus story. See below.

Finding Your Next Superstar Ambassador: The #1 Secret

Source: Wikipedia.com

Oftentimes when a new Plexus Ambassador gets started, they have several people in mind that they
think "would do great in the business". The Ambassador usually has people in mind that they believe are "real go-getters", "smart in business", and "sales minded". But time and time again, the new Ambassadors find themselves let down when those "superstars" won't even try Plexus. Sometimes they do try Plexus and the superstar becomes an Ambassador, but for some reason, they never really do anything with it.

It is understandable that people are disappointed when things don't work out the way they envision. Who would not love to have those people on their team who love the products and really "get it" when it comes to the business? But, when an ambassador let's herself get discouraged because she is not finding that "superstar", she could end up selling herself short, believing that it is just not happening fast enough.

Michelle, my wife, recently posted this in our "Rock the Pink" group page for our Ambassador team:

"It took me weeks when I first started to get my first customer (other then my mom but that doesn't count:), I had customers that didn't lose right away and I had team members that insisted that NO ONE wanted to try Plexus in their town or circle and so decided to turn their back office off. I have been criticized at times for being on the Plexus Craze and have had people say it's a "scam"........I have been discouraged myself in the beginning when I saw others "move the ranks" faster then I could blink......I had family along the way even try the product and want their money back........WHAT IF I WOULD HAVE GIVEN UP???...Consistency and hard work always win mixed in with being educated and staying positive ALWAYS!"

When it comes to finding superstar Ambassadors, it is almost always a surprise. We never really know when someone is going to just take off with Plexus. But there is one secret that will help you find that next superstar, and it is guaranteed to work. Are you ready for it? Here it is: Be Your Next Superstar. Create events in your town. Show up for your ambassadors when they need assistance. Answer your phone. Communicate with your customers. Talk to strangers. Be friendly. Study your products and know what they do, and what to recommend. Learn how to do a full presentation. Join meet up groups. Travel to where you see growth happening in your team. Encourage others!

If you will do all of this, then you will be a shining example, and guess what, you will also have created something for others to replicate. When you teach others do the same thing, it won't be long until you have not just one or two superstars, but a team full of them! People who have been around me have heard me say this many times: There are roughly 300,000,000 people in the U.S. At least 250,000,000 of those people have a need that our products can help with. We have not even scratched the surface of our potential in this country and there is plenty of opportunity to go around. Become your next superstar, and you will find your next superstar, and your success.

They Called It a Get Rich Quick "Pyramid Scheme"

If you have been a Plexus Ambassador for any length of time, you have probably had someone ask you

something like, "Oh, is this one of those get rich quick 'pyramid schemes?'" If you are like most of us, you've probably never really looked into what a pyramid scheme actually is, so you probably found yourself without words to really satisfactorily answer the question. You already know that the products work. You also know that if you work hard at Plexus, you have the opportunity to help people and make a substantial income doing it. But if the best answer you can muster is "No, it's not one of those", you will find it difficult to move forward with confidence. Well, this article is going to supply you with the information you need to be able to not only answer, but show them you are not a sucker, and that you decided to become a Plexus ambassador because you know a good thing when you see it!

#1 thing to know - The term "Pyramid Scheme" has a finite definition. In other words, in order for something to be a pyramid scheme, it has to meet certain criteria. And the #1 thing that ties all pyramid schemes together: they offer no legitimate product or service. Instead, they offer promises they never intend to keep. Unlike the Plexus brand which offers amazing products which actually transform lives, pyramid schemes are solely dependent upon attracting new recruits in order to pay earlier recruits, but there is no real product or service of value. This is why it is called a scheme.

#2 - Pyramid Schemes are 100% illegal; Multi-Level Marketing, on the other hand, is not. Multi-Level Marketing is not simply another name for a pyramid scheme, MLM, as it is known is, in fact, altogether different. Legitimate MLM's offer a real product or service in exchange for money. Simply put, MLM's use word of mouth for their advertising, instead of paying for ad space. The success of an MLM is largely dependent the quality of the product or service that is offered. MLM represents a major slice of the American economy, and many very reputable businesses have been built through it. Think of Mary Kay and Avon. Even many well known and respectable insurance companies are structured to be Multi-Level Marketing companies.

#3 - There is no magical formula to getting rich in Plexus. You either share the products because you believe in them, and give other people the opportunity you have been given, or you sit on it. There is nothing illegal or wrong about making money by sharing a valuable product with others. Don't get me wrong, Plexus is an unbelievable opportunity, and you CAN make a lot more money by working hard at it than you can with most any other job, but there is no scheme to it. You simply work hard, like everything else, but YOU set the limits for what you can achieve.

#4 - Some MLM's have given the industry a bad name. Some MLM's have tried to establish themselves through a lot of hype, but when it really comes down to it, the product or service that is offered is lackluster. There is nothing illegal about this, and this does not make them a pyramid scheme, because again, they are offering an actual product that has some value. What it does mean is that their product is bad, and as all bad products, they deserve to land in the dump heap of history. Unfortunately, some MLM's also market themselves as ways to get rich quick. While the MLM structure can lend itself toward making a good living, it is still dependent on working hard and offering a good product.

Plexus offers excellence. There is no magic here, and there is no scheme. We just offer something that people are desperate for, we work hard, and our product delivers results.

What the Hoodia?

Change is Tough

Yesterday, Plexus Ambassadors were greeted with a change to our beloved product. Due to Hoodia being derived from a plant that is now considered to be an endangered species under CITES Appendix II, Plexus Corporate has decided to remove Hoodia from the Plexus Slim product.

Some might naturally express a little bit of apprehension about this, after all, we love Plexus Slim and what it has done for us, and as Ambassadors we are invested in sharing that experience with as many people as possible. But let's just take a look at this situation for what it is. Plexus is obviously a rapidly growing business, that has been built by a reputation of having outstanding products that actually work. That being said, Plexus Corporate offices would never intentionally do anything to harm that reputation or the growth possibilities of the company.

Let's face the facts. We have a big 'ol target on our backs when it comes to our competition, and they would like nothing more than to see us fail. Fortunately for us, Plexus was built by people who understand the chemistry. It is easy to overreact to news of this sort. When grape seed extract was removed from the Slim over concerns of some people having negative reactions to it, there were people saying that the Slim didn't work the same, and that people weren't losing weight. I am here to tell you that my wife and I built the majority of our Plexus business after that point on the testimonies that have continued to flow in!

Sure, we don't like to hear that things change, but the changes that Plexus has made have always been for the betterment of the company as a whole. Removing the Hoodia is a responsible decision, and it should give all of us Ambassadors confidence in our company as the decision reflects the visionary planning of our leadership. Plexus intends to be around for a long time. The same goes for the change from Accelerator to Accelerator+. Plexus informed us that it might take some time for those who were on the old Accelerator to get used to the new formula. And though the Accelerator+ does have different effects than the original Accelerator, the positive reports have continued to pour in from new customers who are having tremendous results with the Plexus Slim and Accelerator+ combo.

As for how removal of the Hoodia contained in Plexus Slim might affect the results of the use of the product, tests have shown no difference in Slim's efficacy. Hoodia is used as an appetite suppressant, but the fact is Plexus Slim contains other ingredients that are known to have a greater impact on hunger than Hoodia.

The bottom line is "change is change". We typically don't like it, but understanding the bigger picture can help one to appreciate change, and recognize that in order to continue to thrive, we must show that we can adapt to it.
