Grateful Post..
Good Monday Morning..
Today I am grateful..
For a great weekend..
For self control
For getting to spend time with Stromboli..
For the men that jumped in, so unselfishly, to save my life, when I drowned last year. When I was spending time with Stromboli I realized had those men not jumped in. I would not have been able to spend time with him..
For Debra.. Thank you for everything this weekend.. I had a great time.. I love you..

Welcome back!!! It is so nice to see you posting the Grateful Post.
Remember.... One day at a time.
Today I am grateful....
To know that you are getting better. I am so glad to see that.
For my best friend Kim. I had the best weekend I have had in a very long time.... and no partying LOL.
For opening my eyes to things/someone that that has been in front of me for a while.
For learning to love myself.
For a God that doesn't give up on me, even when I do.
For all of my friends and family that care.
For my family.
For strength.

YES ! I agree WELCOME BACK.....NOT that Vivian didn't do a great job posting - but this is YOUR thread !! lol. Changes are sometimes hard to get over. Know what I mean?
I'm grateful for the time I get with my dad this year. I don't think that he is doing all that well - now that I see it for myself...................MANY YEARS OF SMOKING LIKE A CHIMNEY HAS TAKEN ITS TOLL ON HIS LUNGS.
I'm grateful that I got to see some OLD classmates on Sat night. Closed some chapters and talked to my BFF about it - really helped !! She had NO idea !
I may be leading someone on to WLS He's been thinking about it - but he is a CEO of a company and worried about the lifestyle AFTER surgery and his "traveling" eating out.
I referred him to our website for hugs, love and support and knowledge cuz you all are the greatest !!
Friends
Surgery and just life in general !!
MAKE IT A GREAT DAY!

Much to be grateful about here.....
Super supportive husband who can't wait for me to scream in excitement when I actually weigh less than him (closing in on a 6 pound gap, down from about a 35 pound gap)
That same supportive husband who exercises with me when I am rip-raring to go, encourages me to exercise with him when I really should but don't feel like it, and let's me get away with a few lazy days when I need them (or have earned them)
Employment - while I'm not overjoyed most days, it pays the bills and I'm happy to have it
The beautiful women I work with who are supportive of my weight loss - the one who knows about WLS and the rest of them who don't
The upcoming 3-day weekend!
The health changes and the avoidance of comorbidities that come with a new life - I was lucky not to have any serious issues that required treatment before, but already I have lowered my resting heart rate by about 50 bpm, and my "normal" bp is now in a low range (still healthy, though). I'm glad I made the decision to spend the money on WLS BEFORE I qualified medically.
For the wisdom willingly shared by all of you on these boards
