They used to call me "fatty". Now they no longer call me names like fatty or moon face but they're jealous of my great looks and shape. And one more thing. Since most of my friends have gotten out of shape I help them get back to good looks and make money from them at the same time. It's just poetic justice.
Earn cash while you help others to lose weight

Here’s the scenario: You want to lose weight so you can get a new job but you can’t seem to follow through with tips you’ve been reading. Sure there are laws that say employers can’t discriminate on the basis of weight. But be real. If you compete against 100 or more others you know the overweight persons have the least chance to catch the brass ring. You’re not alone. It just feels that way to you.
But while you’re looking for a new beginning how about helping yourself while you help others to get into better shape, weight wise. After all, if a bunch of reasonably intelligent people who need to become losers (of weight) put their minds together they will achieve success. But to do so they will need a leader, an organizer and a facilitator. And all of these rolled up in one person can be you.
We are looking for a few good men and women to become leaders, organizers and facilitators of our now forming, Brown Bag Diet Club. These new leaders must be at least 20 pounds overweight.
Overweight? Yes. I don’t know about you but I’m sick of watching and listening to skinny models or athletic body builders preach about weight loss. I want a leader who is believable because he or she is going through the same process that I am when I am in the process of losing weight.
Questions & Answers
What makes the Brown Bag Diet Club unique?
The Brown Bag Diet Club will meet once a week to utilize a weekly motivational diet theme derived from material in my book, “The Brown Bag Diet- tips & Clues for dieters from the pharmacist’s notebook”. After the weekly weigh-in, the motivational tips, called “Watchword/Slogans”, will be discussed. Members of the club will be able to use this theme for at least the next week to keep them on track with their diet program.
What will the leader be expected to do?
The leader will recruit members, host the meetings and facilitate the group discussion.
How will I learn the material in order to facilitate the group discussion of the week?
If you are chosen as the leader/facilitator you will receive a weekly email. This will contain a discussion of the watchword/slogan for the week. Some of the most significant points will be summarized for you to print and distribute to the group. Individual members can keep these summaries handy to refer to like flash cards in order to maintain their weight loss program.
What other materials are available from the headquarters of Brown Bag Diet Club?
Leaders will receive links to non-commercial web sites that will be also helpful. These links can be passed out to the group in the course of the weekly discussion.
How much can I earn by participating as a leader in this club?
If you are chosen you will collect a modest fee of $5.00 per week from each participating member. A portion of that fee, approximately $1.50 per member, will be sent to Brown Bag Diet Club headquarters. The rest is yours. Each week you will report the number of members who attended to Club headquarters.
Since we expect each branch of our club to start out with small groups, possibly 4 to 10 members, it wouldn’t be practical to rent space for the weekly meetings. Therefore each leader must have adequate space in their home to accommodate a meeting of this size and must agree to host these meetings.
Will I have any start-up costs?
Yes, a very modest of $150.00. This is your guarantee fee to Brown Bag Diet Club national organization that your branch is serving 10 members for the first 10 weeks. It is non-refundable even if your group does not reach the 10 member size.
If you are chosen to establish a club in your immediate area you will receive start-up documents that represent the agreement between you and The Brown Bag Diet Club national organization. Complete the forms, sign and return to Brown Bag Diet Club headquarters. You must include your start-up fee of $ 150.00.
What does the first $150.00 cover?
This represents the amount of the fee you would be responsible to forward to Club headquarters if you have an attendance of 10 members, who pay you $5.00 each week, for a period of 10 weeks. You will be obligated to send $150.00 at the beginning of each 10 week period, whether you have 10 attendees or not.
What are some of the continuing costs?
At the start of each 10 week period you are responsible for sending the 10 member group guarantee of $150.00. You will be required to report attendance weekly and if your attendance exceeds 10 members you will need to send an additional $1.50 to headquarters for each member in excess of 10. There will be some minimum costs borne by you for printing material on your home computer that will be supplied to you by email from headquarters.
How much can I earn as a leader/facilitator in the Brown Bag Diet Club?
Your earnings are dependant of the number of members who you recruit to join you in this effort to lose weight. Remember, the weekly charge to members is a modest $5.00.
You get to keep $3.50 of this charge. You are responsible to pay a guarantee of $150.00 up-front in each 10 week meeting period. This fee in non- refundable. However it is credited towards the $1.50 fee per member per week required to be sent to headquarters.
If you begin by recruiting only an average of 3 members each week the fees you collect will allow you to break even with your $150.00 up-front fee. From then on you will earn a profit of $ 35.00 per member for each 10 week period.
Note: in the chart below your up front fee of $150.00 is credited towards the amount you will need to send to headquarters.

20....100.00...........70.00.............700.00
If I become a leader and my group averages 10 members I would earn a little more than $1,000.00 for a years effort. That’s not much.
True. The charges for membership are small and the profit is likewise modest. To keep costs down all material sent to leaders will be through email. The leader is expected to print it along with supplementary material for distribution to the members of his group.
But everyone wins with this program. You get to help others lose weight while you also lose weight. The benefit to you is more than the modest profit you can earn.
