3 things for THURSDAY
GOOD MORNING MARYLAND
TODAY I AM GRATEFUL FOR;
1. SUPPORT GROUPS; ONLINE AND GBMC - WASN'T GOING TO GO BACK TO GBMC BUT I DID LAST NIGHT AND I AM SO GLAD I DID.
2. AQUA PILATES AND AEROBICS TONIGHT; FIRST TIME IN OVER A WEEK ; I CANN'T WAIT
3. 53 DAYS TILL VACAY
NEXT
Today:
1 - I have to agree with Darla about the Pool Classes tonight. I frequently take the same classes and I have missed them so much. I always feel great afterwards. Our trainer makes it fun while putting us through our paces.
2 - Weathering the weather - One of the things that I have been realizing lately is that the warm weather does not bother me the way that it used to. I used to feel the humidity more. On the hot days, just walking from my car to home/work would make rivers run down my face. So far I am enjoying the warm weather so much more than in the past. I continue to be so thankful that I followed this path to weight loss. Since it is supposed to be extra hot for the next couple of days, I will get to see just how much I can tolerate.
3 - The color pink. While I love many colors, my favorite lately has been the color pink. It just lifts my spirit. Needless to say, I am wearing pink today and am in my "happy place"!

1) My surgery is tomorrow....Yipieeeeeeeee!!!
2) Just got in from doing all my shopping...I think I got everything. Getting ready to pack up my stuff to take to my sister's house, then I'm going to Block Buster, and then home for my good ole bowel prep....yuk!!!
3)For the great support that I receive everyday from the boards. Thank you all!

Don't sweat the bowel prep. Tastes nasty, but it's a quick sip or two and over. Then just stay close to the bathroom. You probably won't be uncomfortable, just frequent, lol. To me, it actually felt good to clean out.
There's a spot on the losers bench, warm and shiny with your name on it.

Good Morning Darla!
I see how happy you are I see that you are screaming from the top of your lungs!! 53 days until vacay damn I wish I was you!! lol
Thanks for posting.
My daughter who dropped off her baby to me 6 days ago with a horrible virus cold crap and pink eye. Little Gino caught the pink Sunday and is very sick, Gianna has pink for two days and her eyes are glue shut too and has the same horrible cold, phlem fever and now baby Gia with 102.3 fever and maybe pink eye too. Ughhhhhh We are on our way to MD to take the kids to the peds. I am not taking Gia to the ER nope no way! I am walking alround like a zombie I have only slept like 2 hours last night and the same for the last three days.
Today I am thankful:
1. Enlightenment!! My daughter will learn from now on that this is NOT going to be happening anymore. She is in St. Lucia today while I am going nuts with 4 sick kids.
2. The new determination I will have from now on to say NO!
3. For protein drinks that is keeping me alive since I have no desire to eat!
Have a great day everyone.
I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.
