I saw an ad on craigslist saying these guys are looking for weight loss coaches, is this a scam or no?

Depends on what you are looking for... I wouldn't say it's a "weight loss coach position" though. It's a herbal supplement company http://www.herbalife.com/.
You are an independent direct sales consultant (distributor) in a MLM (Multi-level marketing Plan) where you not only sell the supplements and weight loss products, but also try to get others into the company and selling under you in your "downline". The sales is product and business just like any Avon, Mary Kay, Amway, Pampered Chef, Arbonne, Scapbooking etc.
So although you may be coaching some to help and assist in using the products to lose weight it is not the main focus. Selling the products and the marketing scheme is
... and there is usually some type of investment to start (Purchase of products).

Its not a scam but its network marketing and the ad is very deceiving because its commission based.
