This book is an inspirational devotional to give you encouragement and guidance assisting you in your healthy living journey. Hello Friend, I have been anxiously waiting to share this information with you because it has given me a new lease on life and hopefully, it will do the same for you. I am one of those people who have tried every way, in and of myself, to lose weight, sometime succeeding and other times slipping right back into my old habits. This 52 Day book is really about rebuilding the total YOU-MIND, SPIRIT, AND BODY.Upon reading the book of Nehemiah, a book in the Old Testament of the Bible, I discovered some life principles that enabled me to rebuild or "renew" my body in a relatively short time. Nehemiah 6:15 states, "So the wall was finished on the twenty and fifth day of the Month Elul, in fifty and two days." That scripture struck me like a bolt of lightning, and I said to myself, "If Nehemiah with the help of the Lord could rebuild the walls of a city in 52 days, certainly the Lord and I can rebuild my body in 52 days. So I began my quest to rebuild my body in 52 days. Results: I would like to share with you step-by-step what I did to achieve this goal and encourage you to pray about it and see if this process of rebuilding will be your avenue to put you on the right path to a healthy living lifestyle.
"I met Marine Sgt. John Peck, a quadruple amputee who has received a double arm transplant, at Walter Reed in 2017. Today, it was my honor to welcome John (HERO) to the Oval, with his wonderful wife Jessica. He also wrote a book that I highly recommend, Rebuilding Sergeant Peck."—President Donald Trump Marine Sgt. John Peck survived an IED during the War on Terror that left him with a traumatic brain injury, amnesia, and cost him his marriage. He survived another three years later, one that left him with three and a half limbs missing. He’s one of only two living people to survive the flesh-eating fungus he contracted in recovery at Walter Reed, one that left him as a quadruple amputee. And that’s only the beginning of his story. What followed was a recovery nothing short of miraculous. With resilience and the help of advocates like actor and philanthropist Gary Sinise, FOX’s Jennifer Griffin, and Bill O’Reilly, John would use a specialized “Action Trackchair” wheelchair and a newly-built SmartHome to get a third lease on life. In 2016, Peck underwent a groundbreaking bilateral arm transplant, receiving two new arms. To date, the surgery has been successful. Today, Peck is a motivational speaker, a philanthropist for veteran and wounded warrior causes, and is pursuing his lifelong dream of becoming a chef with the help of Chef Robert Irvine. From the lessons learned in a difficult childhood and as a homeless teenager, to dealing with depression in recovery, to learning how to chop with another man’s arms, Rebuilding Sergeant Peck is Peck’s account of an honest, visceral, and inspirational story that is truly unique.
