Good Tuesday Morning Everyone,

Hope your having a good week.   Mine is so - so.    Not much going on at my house.    I've been trying to get back into the swing of things after being on vacation last week.   Today I am grateful for so many things.   It is sometimes difficult to only list a few things. I am especially grateful today for my WLS and all the choices of WLS today.   I had only 2 choices when I had mine done almost 7 yrs. ago.  (Thanksgiving Day is my 7 yr. surgiversary ).   I am SO grateful for my friend who I hadn't seen in years that came to visit and told me about her WLS.    I am also grateful that our insurance covered my surgery.   I am especially grateful that my "tool" of choice is still working at 7 yrs. out.   I am again trying to loose some weight and I have lost about 10 lbs.     Grateful for Obesity Help and all the wonderful people on the message boards who give encouragement and support to everyone.    PLEASE share if you will  what you are grateful for today.    Have a blessed day !!

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Good Morning Everyone,

Hope you had a great weekend and Happy Veterans Day to our Veterans.    We all have so very much to be grateful for in our lives.   Life offers us no guarantees as you all know and truly life is what WE decide to make it.    We can make life amazing or miserable the choice is ours.    Today I am grateful for another week ( hopefully ) as another day to live and make wise choices.    Today I am grateful that I am now losing weight again and re-focused.   Yes....You certainly CAN loose weight when you are a Veteran WLS patient ( I am right at 7 yrs. post op ).   I have lost almost 10 lbs.    I am grateful for all the support and encouraging posts here on Obesity Help and grateful for everyone who puts themselves out there by asking and answering questions.    Grateful for life and my faith.    PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today.   Have a blessed day.

Hugs and blessings `~~~ Vivian

Good Friday Morning Everyone,

I'm so sorry that I couldn't post on here tuesday - thursday.    I was on vacation in Las Vegas and I couldn't figure out how to copy and paste on my phone.   I am SO very grateful today to be home.    Las Vegas was nice but as they say...there is no place like home.   Today I am grateful for my home and my life.    I am grateful for my family and my friends.   Grateful for going on vacation and coming home weighting the very same as I did when I left.    Grateful for the fact that I could walk for hours up and down the Vegas strip and not get tired.    Grateful for my life since my WLS.   PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today and have a amazing weekend.

Good Morning Everyone,

We all have so very much in our lives to be grateful for.   Afterall....you are reading this post so you should be grateful that you are alive, breathing. have a computer, arms with your hands attached and eyes to see.   Sometimes we take the smallest things for granted.   I am grateful today for my life, family, 3 sons. daughter in law and especially my precious granddaughter.   Life is too short to not be grateful everyday.   Please don't forget to tell the people in your life you care about that you love them.   We have no guarantees of the next second.   I am grateful for life.    PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for and have a blessed day.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Good Friday morning Everyone,

Hope your ready for a amazing weekend.   We ALL have so very much in our lives to be grateful for.  Sometimes we may think that we don't....but that couldn't be farther from the truth.    After all we should be extremely grateful that we woke up this AM....that we have legs and arms and a good brain that remembers things and makes us think.   Grateful that we can smell the flowers and the rain outside.   Grateful for everything in our lives both good and bad...the bad things teach us what we need to know.    Today I am grateful for my family and their love.   I am grateful for every person that God puts in my life and for all the people that enjoy these daily posts.    Grateful for my health and for my WLS.    Without my weight loss surgery.....I know I wouldn't have good health nor have the energy hat I have today.   Thank you everyone *****ads these post.   I am VERY grateful for you.    PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today and have a amazing weekend.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian
