Painful hip joint and coping with being Overweight

Wow it's ages since I posted anything here so I thought I would tell you what I'm up to .

I live on the Isle of Man and for the past two weeks we have had TT week which has kept me very busy.  As I'm sure you all know TT stands for Tourist Trophy and are the world famous bike races.  I absolutely love the atmosphere on the Island during TT we always have people staying with us  This year we have had two brothers who stay with us regularly and we also had a couple who stayed and have become like best friends with us.

So on an update on my life with doTERRA essential oils.

Over the past 2 or 3 weeks I have had pain in my hip.  I have had similar pain in the past and have taken anti-inflammatory medication.  This time, being totally convinced of the power of essential oils, a few days ago I started taking 2 drops of Frankincense under the tongue twice a day.  I'm glad to say that the pain is much improved.  Not cured yet but on the way.

Meanwhile I am planning on attending the doTERRA Convention in Salt Lake City, Utah, in October and since I have put on quite a bit of weight since my sister's death last year I decided it was time to shed a few pounds.  So on Monday I started taking Slim and Sassy to lose weight. 

I have already told you that I am a diabetic on insulin and it is very difficult for diabetic's to lose weight because the insulin stabilises the weight.  Diets have never worked very well for me however previously I lost almost two stone (27 lb) by using Slim and Sassy so I'm hoping that I can be successful this time as well. 

The wonderful thing about S&S is that the blend not only cuts craving for sugar but also gives you energy and stabilises the metabolism.  Fabulous stuff believe me! I'll keep you informed on how the weight loss goes.
