"I came out of the womb singing," says Shelli Williams. Anyone who has seen her vivacious rendition of Aretha Franklin's "Respect" knows that her rock and soul spirit runs deep. It's a talent that came in handy when finances were low and winning karaoke contests helped put food on the table.

Things were so bad that when Rae Kamstra, one of her best friends, introduced her to Body Wise shakes, she saw the possibilities, but hesitated. "I didn't know if the credit card would go through for $35 because we were so broke at the time," Shelli confesses. She began with Élancé frappes to help achieve her body reshaping goals. "In a week I started seeing huge gains in my upper body strength," she says. "I also dropped two dress sizes in two months."

Everyone noticed the changes and asked what she was doing. Because Shelli dreaded the idea of selling anything, she referred them to Rae, who encouraged her to put aside her fear and earn a paycheck as a Consultant. That kicked things into high gear. From weight loss, Shelli moved on to Right Choice AM/PM, and when she discovered Workout Formula - in her own words - "Waooowww!" That's strong praise from a cardio kickboxing instructor.

She no longer struggles with food sensitivities, and once her children started on Tiger Vites, they haven’t either. Now she’s started taking Estrenol, her skin looks better than ever, and once again everyone's asking how she does it. Today, Shelli loves her Body Wise business. "It's such a great feeling seeing people get the same great results I do and enjoying a great quality of life." As for financial concerns, there are no money worries anymore. "I laugh when I get a paycheck in the mail," says Shelli. "I can't believe they're paying me to do this!"
