OT: Foot Detox Pads now!

[DLA]

Picked them up yesterday from the Avon lady and used them last night.  Pain, a g o n y!  They made my legs hurt so bad!!!  It was almost immediate.  They were pretty grose this morning, but what is weird is that my feet still seem to have stuff coming out of them, like green tar!?  And I am peeing like crazy today.  It is also this awful greenish gray hue.  And to top it off I feel like cr@p!  Felt really good yesterday, but have been just dead today and feeling awful.  

My mom and my aunt keep saying they don't believe all this, that it is just something people are doing and convincing themselves that it makes them feel better.  Well, if they go through anything like I have, it must take a long time to get to better.  'Cause this ain't it!

Anybody else have any experience with these things?  Do they make you feel better eventually?  HELP!  =(

Craniac ~ I remember a few years back getting an e-mail about those.  When Mary said "foot shaped Kotez", I remembered them.  Aren't they a hoot???

Dac ~  Yes.....no more bending over to mop up messes.  Just imagine how absorbent!!  hahahahaa  Swiffer pad for Aunt Flo?!?!?!  You're KILLING me, girl!!

Teresa ~ Leave it to us sicko's to bring a laugh to you.  You can always count on us!!  I swear....something is seriously wrong upstairs here!!!  :-)

You guys are too much- I may need all those pads after all this laughing!!!  It's go great to luagh again this week!

Dac- I was always told that detoxing takes a toll on your body and should rest the next day. Toxins will fight like heck before they come all the way out.
     This post reminded me that you had asked for the liver detox i did .  I will tell you -you must do it like on friday night or saturday night because your tooter will be glued to the potty the next day and you'll need to rest that day. I followed this recipe after my dad tried it. He was diagnosed with a fatty liver and has done this several times- now his liver has miracalously ( sp?)  returned to normal state. His dr. does not understand how- dr.  thought my dad was an alcoholicbut he only drinks socially which for him is porbably 1 or 2x a month.
     The recipe can be found on  curezone  dot com - in case you want to read about it further.
    
Eat a lowfat breakfast & lunch of toast or oatmeal on the day of the flush.

   2;00pm- drink or eat nothing after this time or you will feel ill.

   6;00 pm - mix 3/4 cup of water with 1 tblsp. epsom salt.

    8:00 pm- drink another dose of 3/4 cup water & 1tblsp. epsom salt.

   9:45 pm mix 1/2 cup olive oil (light olive oil worked best for me) with 3/4 cups all natural grapefruit juice or lemon juice. Shake well.
   go potty or whatever you need to do cuz the next step is key for this too work. be ready for bed

  10:pm shake the mixture again of olive oil & juice and drink it down- lay down immediately keeping only your head on a pillow and lay completely still for at least 20 minutes. This is important to get all the stones and gunk out!

   The next morning when you wake drink another dose of 3/4cup water & 1tblsp. epsom salt- it will taste awful by this time but it does work!!!  don't take this before 6am.

   10:00 am the last and final dose of 3/4 water & 1tblsp epsom salt.

  stay close to the potty cuz it will catch you by surprise!!!!  Rest as much as you can! You won't belive what comes out!! There are pictures people post on that site and WOW!
   Around noon you can eat something light like toast- don't over do it or your tummy will be upset.

  You may want to check with doc before doing this- I can't stress this enough. My endo had me wait until my labs were within range before trying this. If you have any questions don't hesitate to post or look at curezones' website.

  Best Wishes- god bless-   teresa

  p.s.  i'm gonna call my avon lady- i'm curious how my gunk will look on the feet!

[DLA]

Just now checked out the web site for those slippers.  Is it just me or do they look really comfy to any one else?  hehe  If you stuck a pair of them to the bottom of your feet you could mop the floor!  Am highly considering it!  Especially those monster suckers I have to wear!  Think it could work really well!  Have considered lately the Swiffer pads for Aunt Flo.  They're bigger and hold more. ;)

How did you ever find that pattern? It's priceless!

I'm going to make a pair for my 28-yr-old niece. She went to NYU for 2 years to get her master's in human sexuality (same education my hubby and I got for free in the back of his car). She's twisted enough to truly appreciate this gift! She may even share it with her students in her "health" classes... LOL!!

[kipland]

TOO funny!!!  Can't wait to see the Christmas pics.  It'll be really hard for you to keep a straight face as they open them, though.  I don't think I could do it and not burst out laughing.  We've done some pretty crazy things at Christmas in my family.  Too much "story" for most of them to share out here (and you probably had to BE there, you know what I mean?), but man - was it fun.


DAC!  Where ARE you?!?!  You started all of this, and I want you sharing in the fun!!  I miss you!

[LawDoggy]

I'm taking your dare!  I think it will be SO funny too.  Listen, my family won't know if they are "real" gifts or "gag" gifts and so when they open them, they will all probably make nice toothy smiles and say how "lovely" they are.  They'll be taking off their shoes to try them on and oooh and ahhh about how "comfortable" they are.  I'll try to get photos for you.  :o))

Now this is funny.  If you Google "Avon Foot Detox Pads" guess what shows up???  Well, first is the Beauty Dish site with the funny story and SECOND is this site and post!!!  Ha ha ha ha!  Bet Avon wishes they could just completely forget about this product!!!  We're not exactly the best advertising, are we?  OMG.  I think I wet myself.

All good things,
Mary
Be sure to Google "Avon Foot Detox Pads"

That Avon story was fuuunnnnyyy!!  I loved the "their eyes crusted shut with virus boogers".  Don't know why, but that cracked me up.  Twisted, I am!!  

Oh my......I can just see your whole family sporting their new slippers at Christmas.  Just think of all the crafty things you can get at the craft store to jazz them up!!  And for the larger size feet, you can just buy the "hospital size"!!  You know, the ones that you have to hook to the belt?!?!?!  Not as much fun as the sticky ones, for sure - but a lot less mess.  Don't know if they make those with wings, though.  :-(     I SO dare you to make some as gifts, then let us know how it goes over.  I'd seen these a few years ago and got a good chuckle out of them.  Can't wait for Dac to see 'em, because I KNOW she's gonna love them!!!

Glad I could bring a smile to your day.  Sometimes, as twisted as it is....that's all we need.  Sad, isn't it?

Dac really IS nuts, but that's why we love her so much!!  ;-)

[LawDoggy]

Wow!  WHO KNEW?  I went to the website and got the instructions for "Maxi Pad Slippers."  I think I'll start now so I can have a pair ready for everyone on my Christmas list!!!  They'll all be so pleased-----not!     I must make a list of everyone's foot size...don't want to end up with extra "mini-pads" as most of my family and friends have real big feet.  Just a few with those dainty size 5s.  Of course in my family there could be a problem...everyone will probably get stuck to the floor after they take the adhesive strip covers off.  Then I'll have to go around with the GooGone and pick up the tattered remains of my thoughtful gifts.  :o(

OMG!  I laughed myself silly.  Thanks Kipster!  

By the way, ya'll, here's a page with a wonderful story about the Avon Foot Detox Pads.  Well written by an ex-Avon lady.  I must admit that I got a chuckle out of it and be sure to read the linked story about the Avon Tiara Boom-Te-Yay.  I want one.

I'm starting to love you all more and more.  My day was better because of YOU!

You are not nuts!  I never heard of feet pads but I have seen feet baths that were really gross.  It looked like someone pooped in the green water.  I never had it done but I know there are parisites that can get in our bodies through our feet. I'll have to call my Avon lady about these pads.

[kipland]

Please read LawDoggy's comment above, then check out this awesome craft for all of us to do when we're hypo or bored!!  Oh my goodness.  http://familycrafts.about.com/library/projects/blpadslippers.htm

Foot Detox Pads? That's so funny, it could be a comedy skit!

[kipland]

It may now!!!!  :-)  Imagine that!  Kind of like the incredible hulk going back to "normal".  hee hee!

[Venora Moonwind]

Just go to a sauna and sweat it out. wont come out green either.
Love Venora

[DLA]

You are all too funny!  Am really laughing out loud.  Good thing the door is shut as my guys are in bed asleep already.

Dac ~ I've never heard of those things, and I'm sorry to say that it sounds extremely gross!!  I think I'd toss them in the trash if they're causing pain.  OR, call the Avon lady and ask for a refund or exchange for something that doesn't turn your feet and pee green!  Ewwwww!!!

Mary ~ your sense of humor (twisted!) is just like mine, and I love it!!  Your comments have me belly laughing!!

Lori

[artsyrose]

ok...I have seen a couple of ads for them...but I think I, too, will keep the money

[msfergy]

SAY WHAT! What are they? Sounds like you better not use them, did it say it would cause all that?

[LawDoggy]

Foot Detox Pads?

OK.  I've been living on a sheep farm for the past sixteen years, so I am surely not up on what the Avon lady has in her sample case anymore, but Foot Detox Pads???  I'm going to have to see if these are pictured on any website as my mind is having a great time conjuring up images.  Are these like foot-shaped Kotex?  Or Dr. Scholl's gel pads filled with battery acid?  Maybe they are booties that strap on with velcro and make you look like Nanook of the North?  I can't imagine...

As for your "foot therapy," I think I'll pass on THAT!  I've got enough pain and agony to share and green tar + green pee just sounds downright scary!  I will keep my checkbook in my pocket and pass on the "Foot Detox Pads."

Thanks for the warning!

Mary

What else will they think of?
