3 Things For THURSDAY

today i am grateful for:

1. being alive, see separate post.

2. that the weekend is almost here. I am tired and need a break

3. that i am still doing very well, even though i did have cravings yesterday especially at the restaurant.

Today is a good day to be grateful for so much but these are the main ones that come to mind first thing.....

1. That through this whole 5DPT I have learned things that I didn't even realize that I had let slip and am back where I need to be.

2. That I make more than minimum wage. Even though they just rose minimum wage I could not see being able to survive on that. God bless people who do! That's a tough road and when I think I have it tough on my salary I need to remember that there are whole families out there surviving on one income making minimum wage.

3. I am grateful that I do have patience and tolerance. I work with some people who can get on my last nerve very quickly but I still maintain the best I know how because I know I have to.

Hope everyone is having a good Thursday so far!!!!!!

Today:

1 - New friends, old friends - It was a small intimate support group (Dr. vR at St. Agnes) last night. Teri Y. and Pamela - you both look great and it will continue to get better from here! Terri F. It was good to see you again too. It was also good to see some folks that I remembered from the GBMC Support Groups as well.

2 - The inspiration of others. I am really struggling this week. I have been inspired by the group doing the 5DPT - I don't remember how this is supposed to go. But I am trying a little back to basics myself to see if this can get me on track. I am trying only fluids today. (If someone can tell me how this is really supposed to go, I would appreciate it.)

3 - 2 More Days Until the Weekend - For some reason this week has been tough. I have been trouble getting up in the morning. I think I need a break! Last weekend, while good, was just too crazy busy. This weekend, my time is more my own and I am looking forward to it.

Have a good day everyone!

Debbie, I think if you look back on the post Kelly put up at the beginning of the 5DPT she put the link to the site that gives all the info on it.....if not 'cause I can be a total blonde sometimes LOL just PM her and I know she'll send it to you! I've been relying on her to give me the info on what I can and can't eat and when! LOL Best of luck to you! You are doing great! You know as well as I do that every day is a struggle but we are strong and we always get through it!

Thanks, Heather. I found the link and am checking it out!

OK Good! Glad you found it! It really does make a difference! Kelly really found a good site there and I want to try some of the reciepes out.

Debbie the first 2 days are hard. More the first day of just liquids is hard but you can have creme soup or clear so that made dinner time alot eaiser.
