THURSDAY GRATEFUL POST

Good Thursday Everyone,

Happy Pre-Friday Everyone. Hope your week is going well. We ALL have so very much in our lives to be grateful for even though we feel at times like we don't. Funny how sometimes our thoughts try to convince us that someone or something is out to get us and steal our joy and peace. Those things have been going on in my life but I KNOW that I am truly grateful for everyday that God allows me to stay on this earth. I am grateful for Obesity Help, their faith in me being a support group leader for them and for all the years of being on these message boards and encouraging others. I'm so grateful for my weight loss surgery and the choices pre-ops have today of different surgeries. I am grateful for the weight that I have lost even though I never reached my goal weight it's OK. I KNOW I am a success and I am grateful that the numbers on the scale don't let me think that I am a failure and I know that I am a good person and that number doesn't dictate my self worth. Grateful today for my WLS, Family, friends, my faith in God and answered prayers. Grateful for all the people on these forums who answer questions for others everyday 24/7. Grateful to be part of such a amazing WL community. PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today and have a blessed day !!!

Hugs and blessings ~~ Vivian
