THURSDAY GRATEFUL POST

Good Thursday Everyone,

Not sure this AM if it is OH or my internet that is running SO slow. UGH. We ALL have so very much everyday of our lives to be grateful for even if we can't think of anything. We opened our eyes and obviously you are awake or you wouldn't be here on Obesity Help. You've either decided to have a WLS or already had one or you are in the "thinking about it" phase or you wouldn't be on here as well. That alone with waking up and opening your eyes is something to be grateful for if you have nothing else. I bet everyone of us could make a huge list of things to be grateful for if we truly thought about it and tried. I do this post everyday to wake people up who seem to take things for granted. We have NO guarantees from day to do about anything at all. Everyday that we are blessed to wake up and live is a gift from God in my opinion. I am so very grateful for that everyday of my life. I think about how my life was before WLS and I will NEVER forget how my life was....it is SO much better 8+ yrs. post op WLS and after losing 140 lbs. I could go on and on listing things that I can now do that was only a dream or something I hoped that I would be able to do when I was pre-op. Life is good....no great for the most part. Everyday is a gift and I am so grateful for that gift. Just felt that I should share this with you today. I feel that I share the same things that I am grateful for everyday so I wanted to do something a little different today. PLEASE share if you'd like what your grateful for or any other thoughts with us today. Bless you and have a amazing pre-friday.

Hugs and blessings ~~ Vivian
