Heading Down to Charleston

I hope to go to Charleston soon and attend the Wednesday night prayer meeting at the church where the horrific murders took place earlier this month. I want to pray with my brothers and sisters in Christ and show love and encouragement to the families of the Christians who were killed by bringing them some materials as gifts to keep them lifted up… like a booklet commentary on the 23rd Psalm that has always meant a lot to me and a booklet called ‘Where is God When Things Go Wrong?’ by John Blanchard. I also want to give them a copy of my song “Walking in the Light” on CD. I plan to make nine gift packets for each of the families who lost loved ones, and I want to give it to them in person or at least meet with the pastor about it.

I am working on putting all of this together now and looking forward to meeting these precious people in Charleston, hoping to be a blessing to them. My song “Walking in the Light,” written for victims of such tragedies and crimes against humanity, can be heard for free on Soundcloud here.

Testimonials

Here are testimonials from two people who have been working with me to lose weight in my “Slim and Natural for Life” program.  I plan to begin working with more people for weight loss after I finish my new book for single women. It is so, so true that confidence really does feel better than any junk food tastes. I am in Vail, CO, working on my book and practicing what I preach with energy to hike and walk and bike for miles.  I am also discovering some new health products here in CO.  Read these testimonials, and get on board with the “Slim and Natural for Life” BeaverCreekEagleRiverprogram!

I just wanted to say that I feel very privileged to have had Dwayna work with me this past month. I’ve lost 17.5 lbs in four weeks and I truly feel she had a lot to eastVaildo with it. I’m so glad and thankful for all of her help. She’s encouraged me and has held me accountable every day, and I felt so comfortable talking with her and sharing about my day and what I was eating. She took the time to always be there for me and often shared some great health tips with me that I will be using for the rest of my life. With her help, I broke my addiction to eating chocolate every night. I truly thank God for putting her in my life, and at a time when I really needed someone. And God found me the perfect someone to help me. She’s helped me more than she’ll ever know, and I sincerely appreciate her and all she’s done for me. I am proud to have her as my sister in Christ and friend for life. Liz Acquaire, 30 Days Working with Dwayna, Total Weight Loss: 17.5 pounds 

I have been on a health journey for some time. Attaining a proper weight is something I have always wanted to do and have put out effort yearly to attain. Invariably, though, I would drop a good deal of weight, and then put it right back on, because of an inconsistent follow up plan for daily living. It is basically due to “knowing” what to do, but not doing it. Now, since December of 2012, I have made a conscious decision to make good health a priority…As a Christian, It is my duty to manage my physical health as a mandate from God, who gave me life: 1Co 6:20 For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God’s. As I was working with Dwayna for 30 days, I put myself on a 30 day water fast (which was my idea, as she supported me in it), where I added pH Drops, green powder and chia seeds to a gallon of water for daily consumption. Also, I started my day with a handful of vitamin and mineral supplements taken with sparkling mineral water with added lemon/lime juice (freshly squeezed) and stevia drops. As part of my regime, as needed, I had coconut water and towards the end protein powder. Every day, in the evening, I spent at least 30 min to 1 hour exercising. Every evening, I had to report to Dwayna, what I consumed for the day. If I had any food cravings, or perhaps slipped on my program by eating or drinking something I shouldn’t have. Sometimes I would text her a particular temptation I was undergoing during the day ( i.e.: being exposed to food that was right in front of me that my family was eating…). It really helps to have someone to talk to, who provides encouragement to stay on the straight path. Just knowing that I had to tell “everything I put in my mouth” was a great motivator to keep with the plan and not cheat. I never had this before, as I have always been alone as I fasted and dieted with no one to share my thoughts and feelings. (That is, with someone who is on the same road in fasting and health.) I can tell you, this is a blessing, and I recommend it… —Geoff Artman, 30 Days working with Dwayna, Total Weight Loss: 23 pounds

New Health Products in Vail

I hope to have a very unique health store eventually when I find the right location for the brick and mortar. Since I have been in CO, I have been researching some health venues and have made some great discoveries. Here I am with Dr. D’s Sparkling Kefir Water with more probiotics than kombucha. My favorite flavor is ginger/lemon with only 20 calories. I love this water! I hope to carry it in my health store when the new business begins. I even got to meet the founder of the company here in CO. (Photo taken yesterday in Lionshead Village in Vail, CO.) Lionshead in Vail
