I am grateful for my WLS...that I am healthier because of it. I am thankful that I am finally feeling some restriction. I had to have my band unfilled for 6 weeks this summer due to it having moved(as opposed to "slipped") a bit. When I went back 6 weeks later I found I had gained 12 pounds!!! I went from having 8 pounds to goal to having 20!!!!! My first fill since was 3 weeks ago. No restrictive feeling yet. Next will was last week(I am now filled to 5cc) and some restriction especially with bread haha). YAY!!! I HOPE I CAN LOSE THOSE 20 POUNDS QUICKLY!!!

  Good Monday Morning Everyone,

It's the beginning of another great week on the horizon.    What are you grateful for today?   You know that we all have so very much in our lives to be grateful for.   No one guaranteed us a perfect life nor a trouble free one for that matter.   We have to take what life throws at us and just run with it and make it positive and work for us.    Today I am so grateful for my life ( as unperfect as it is ) and all the wonderful people in it.    So grateful for every problem and trail that is thrown in my direction because I know going through and working through these problems and issues make me a much stronger person in the long run.     SO grateful for my family and friends.   PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today.   Have a blessed and wonderful week.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

  Good Morning My OH Friends,

Yeah....friday has finally arrived !!! WOO HOO !!!    We ALL have so much in our lives to be grateful for.    Waking up....seeing the time of day....feeling the cool or hot breeze as we walk out the door......hearing the birds sing.....smelling the rain and flowers are only a few.....being able to pick up your computer and walk across the room are also things that 
we take for granted.     Today I am SO grateful for my amazing family.    I have been blessed with a amazing husband and been married to him for almost 36 yrs.....and I was blessed with 3 sons ( 2 adopted and one biological ).   I am blessed with one DIL and one almost 7 week old granddaughter.   My youngest son has a amazing GF and my middle son has a amazing fiancee.    God has truly been extremely good to me.    Also I am blessed to be a stay at home Mom ( 2 sons' still home at the moment ).    I love life and and I am SO very grateful for my WLS.    I thought that I would tell ya'll a lttle bit about me as a person for the one's who don't know me.    PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today and have a wonderful weekend.

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

  Good Morning Everyone,

We ALL have so much to be grateful for no matter how bad our life at the moments seems.    Today I am grateful for my faith.    Faith in a higher power that I put ALL my trust in and faith in my WLS and in a brignt future or as long as I am allowed to live on this earth.    I have faith that I can do anything if I put my mind to it and work hard enough.    PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today.  Have a wonderful day.

  Good Morning Everyone,

I didn't sleep very well last night.   I've had alot on my mind.   But even though I didn't get the sleep that I usually get and am not as rested as I would like to be I am still so very grateful that I woke up this AM....that I have my health...which is one reason I had my WLS.    I am grateful for every aspect of my life whether it is pleasant or not so pleasant because during those unpleasant times is when I am learning life's lessons.  I thank God everyday for my life and all the people and things that he has blessed me with.    Trust me...my life has been far less than perfect  and it will never be perfect but I am a very blessed woman.    I am grateful for the trials and the good times in my life.   If I've learned one thing in my life...it is to be grateful for all that I have because it could all be taken from me in the blink of a eye.     Not sure what caused me to write this today but I guess someone needed to read this.    Be grateful please for everything that you have.   Life offers us no guarantees nor has it ever.    Have a blessed and peaceful day.   PLEASE share with us if you will what you are grateful for today.    


Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian
