I haven't been on lately because my life has been crazy. My Avon business has taken on a life of its own and grown at a great rate. I didn't realize how well how was doing with it until our last sales meeting and I was given awarded for all the accomplishments I have made in the 5 campagains I had been selling. I am having an open house next Sunday in the hopes of picking up more clients. I will reach the presidents club apprentice this campaign which garuentees 40% discount. I am aiming for the actual presidents club by the end of the cycle but I would like to reach honor society if I could.
I am not allowed to drive right now because the doctor thinks I have a sleep disorder. He is hoping it is sleep apena because then I can get the machine and start driving again. They want me to lose over a hundred pounds too. I started trying to give up pop again and it is very hard. I know I am carrying too much weight. I am going to try weight watchers again when I get back from holidays. I feel stranded not being able to drive. I had to get my husband to drive me to deliver to some customers who live alittle far away from me.
I am going on holidays in the middle of August with my husband and granddaughter for 2 weeks. It should be fun.
Well that is an update on my life. How is everyone else doing?

Hi Linda I'm thrilled for you and congrats on doing so well. You will make your goal I'm sure of it. It is hard not to be able to drive right now and having to lose weight that's a double blow. I need to lose a lot myself. I've lost 20 pounds and working on the rest. The Best to you and your endevors.

Thank you Lind for giving me best response. Honey there are many of us trying to lose a lot of weight and some of us that are eating right and doing some other things right are losing some.

Linda, congratulations on your great accomplishments with Avon. You should be very proud. Keep up the great work. I sold Regal and I never got anywhere near winning any awards. But then Regal was cheap. The new owners are even cheaper.
I have been struggling with my fibro lately, and not getting any writing done. Haven't won any awards there either. 
We are going on holidays at the end of July for one week. Both my girls are in rep soccer and don't want to miss any games. My younger daughter will be missing one but will be returning the day before another one which is on her birthday. My husband will be staying down there (his home - PEI) longer. We are actually going down there ahead of him because we insist on flying and he found some seat sales (finding better ones now by the way but that's a whole other story) and we have to be there for the long weekend in August for his family reunion. Ugh! Not looking forward to that but we HAVE to go.
Hope to see you around here more.

I'm back now. It's taken me forever to catch up on emails so am just getting around to myLot. I still have a bunch of newsletters in my email to read. Fibro gets a lot worse when I go away - too many adjustments. Now that I am home I am re-adjusting all over again. Hope you have a good holiday.

Sorry that I took so long to respond but I went off on vacation and I am only just checking my e-mail, still on vacation. I don't think I am allowed to tell you about products here. The one that I take although it's expensive, it works. I lost 4 pounds in a week with no extra stuff. I hate to exercise and I eat late at nights so that is where the weight piles on. If there is a way for you to get the info without violating the rules you can let me know.

Hello Linda and congratulations for your business :)
I'm really happy that Avon sells good somewhere, because in Bulgaria it doesn't have good success. There are women who buy, but not everyone can do it, because it's not cheap enough and our payments are little.
I used Avon years ago, about my skin problems, but the creams and exfoliants i bought didn't help. I'm not really interested in buying make up, but shower gels and body oils are really good and smell great :)
I'm thinking to work about Avon, but don't go out really much and i don't have people who could buy from me, also in our country a lot of women are trying to make extra money, so you can find Avon and Oriflame sellers everywhere :)

Hi Suggar, I sell Avon too and I also have a small clientell because I am from a small country but I also sell other products and they are online also. Avon also has a webpage for their reps but you have to pay for it if no one orders from it, hence I am not an erep for Avon although I would love to be. My other business, the site is free and you can email your friends and relatives that are not close to you and they can buy from you. You can check on my website in my profile to see if you are interested. A lot of people do so well with Avon perhaps you should give it a try, if you dont succeed you wont have lost anything. What is Oriflame?

Hi Linda I was going through my responses an came across your post. Did you ever lose that weight. I went off the internet so I never got a chance to follow up with myLot. I am just getting back into it. If you still need to lose that weght go to my web page. They really work, you wont be disapointed, bear in mind that you have to exercise and reduce you calories, eat healthy!
