sacrifice, love and triumph

I gave the last of my LifePak stash to my Lola--that's my paternal grandmother. She needs it more than I do. She's 85, has had a stroke a coupla years before and is rather weak, as could be expected. I do hope it makes her feel better and stronger like it did me. To my other [maternal] grandmother, Inay Po, I gave OptimaOmega to stabilize her fluctuating blood pressure. It's the least I could do to make their lives just a bit easier.

Anywho. Another reason for loving my gladiators: I wore them for a whole day without getting blisters or hurting my feet. That may seem mundane, but to me that is a BIG deal since it's rarer than a blue moon that I find new footwear that treat my feet well. Hell, even simple flipflops give me blisters if worn too long, that's why I practically live in my Chucks, which I can wear with socks to protect my peds. That's why I'm sooooo loving those damn gladiator sandals. Haha.

On a completely unrelated note. The last time I checked, I've lost 3.3 lbs. By all standards, that may not seem much. But if you take my appetite and capacity for eating into consideration, it suddenly becomes a lot. If you don't believe me, just ask any of my friends, roommates or co-workers and they'll all tell you how much of a glutton I am. Promise. So how did I lose weight? One word: MetaboTrim. It's so good, there are absolutely no side effects. Just good, old weight loss. Need I say more?
