I just returned from a trip to Canada to visit my grandfather. We were called up to visit him by my grandmother and their nurses who thought he was close to the end. We spent Sunday night and part of Monday by his bedside, and then Monday evening he went to be with god. I spent the week assisting the family in making funeral arrangements. I got home late last night around Midnight.
This morning I woke up and found out that my other grandfather is also in his last days. He was diagnosed with terminal liver cancer about 10 months ago, and went off the medication that slowed the illnesses progress about a week ago. We’re told he’s got maybe a couple of days to live. We’ll be heading back up to Canada later today or tomorrow to spend some time with him.
This will mark the third death of family member or close friend in a month. Once again I reiterate that diets are never convenient. Life will always be difficult. There will always be struggles, but life must continue, I must try even hard to make this successful.
I didn’t make much of an effort to eat healthy last week. I’ll try harder this week. God is faithful. I’m going to try to make a plan, I know I’ll be staying in a hotel for at least a week, so I’ll try to plan healthy meals even while eating out. I’d appreciate any tips on eating healthy while traveling anyone can provide.

Thanks Gerald, I appreciate the encouragement. I’ll keep at it.
Hi there,
I read your blog and kind of sad about your family but there’s nothing we can do about this but trusting God. Btw, about your diet don’t push yourself too hard. Slowly and you’ll get your desired weight. water is always good. drink 2 glasses of water just when you wake up,before your meal, before you sleep. Be filled with water and less food. you will see the result. taking pill is bad for us. this is the easiest way for you to do it.
I really want you to succeed. I will pray for you today.
Cheri,
Thanks for the prayers I appreciate them!
