Today was sort of a slow day. I got up at around 9:30 a.m. Joy was already off and running when I got up. I realized today when I got up that my foot that had been aching for a few days was aching because it had cracked from dryness. I thought it was just hurting from too much driving. See what happens when you get so fat that you can’t even investigate the bottom of your own feet?! Well, by the end of the day that was taken care of too. Joy’s mother (we just call her Mother) had me to soak my feet in Epsom Salts and then she poured Peroxide over them. Then before I went to bed, Joy, rubbed some Aloe Vera Gel straight from the Aloe plant on them.
Today, I had a couple of smoothies, a couple of glasses of parsley water, some FrequenSea, some pieces of fresh watermelon and a couple of spears of Asparagus. Believe it or not, I was not hungry. Tonight we went to the Country Club of the South for a meeting for this FrequenSea product. Needless to say I joined up and bought 16 bottles. If nothing else, I will be taking them while I am here so if I join up I can get them at a discounted price. I guess it’s a deal I can either use them or sell them. They seem to be going like gang busters. We’ll see what happens.After the meeting when Joy was fixing my foot we got a chance to talk about the plan for me while I am here. First and foremost I must remember to keep my focus. That is to lose weight to the Glory of God. Without Him there is no point in doing this. I know that God is the one that has given me this wonderful opportunity and I don’t want to mess it up again. I want to succeed, go forward and make a difference in the lives of morbidly obese people. I know that at 570 pounds I am a walking miracle. It is only by the grace of God that I am living, breathing, and doing what I am doing. I want to continue to go forward and succeed at all that He sets before me.
Tonight I ended up going to bed at around 1:30 a.m. Joy gave me a glass of lemon water with cayenne pepper in it and it was so hot that I lost my breath. J I know that this will help me somehow, someway.
