Instead of complaining that the rosebush has thorns, be happy that the thorn bush has roses. 

She and I were going to a Christmas Party for her employer. They were all blown away by the dress. She works in a Veteranery office, and they all kept saying they could have never pictured her in such a hot dress after seeing her in scrubs all day. It was a huge boost to her self esteem.
She almost didn't buy the dress because she has a hard time spending money on herself, but when she got all the great compliments, she was just beaming. I will pass along your comments to her.

Thanks everyone for the great compliments. When I look at a before and after pic side by side, I just sit and stair. The transformation is unbelievable. But not all the changes are physical. Emotionally, I feel better, and a little more confident.
When my wife and I went out last night, i didn't think once about the chair I was going to have to sit in (if it was going to hold me), I didn't think, am I crowding others at the table? I didn't eat, but I watched others eat, and I didn't feel jealous, or angry that they didn't have anything that I could eat. I was perfectly content enjoying the time with my friends.
We have had some stressful times in the last few weeks, and I have found myself feeling a little depressed, but I didn't feel like I needed to raid the cupboards or the refrigerator to find something to soothe the "pain",
Life is good and I am so thankful for the chance I have to make it better.
