MONDAY GRATEFUL POST

Good Monday Everyone,

Hope everyone had a good weekend and are ready to begin a amazing week.    I have so much in my life to be grateful for everyday as all of you also do.    We choose to be grateful for the things in our lives everyday.    Today here are a few of the things that I am grateful for today.    Grateful for my life, my WLS and all the choices of surgeries, grateful for my husband and family, grateful for his job and that he has allowed me to be a stay at home mom while my boys were growing up and to be a homemaker after that.    Grateful for my one and only granddaughter, for my faith in God and for answered prayers, grateful for my youngest son who is a youth pastor and music minister and who is making his dreams come true everyday, grateful for my other two sons, oldest who is looking into going to law school, and my middle son.    Grateful for freedom of speech and for living in a free country.    Grateful for Obesity Help who has been my rock and support for over 9 yrs. now.    Grateful for Christmas time and grateful for you who are reading my posts.   PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today and have a blessed day !!

Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Good morning, Vivian!

I have much to be grateful for too: 

1.  7 years of married bliss to my hubby (our anniversary was yesterday)

2.  A tool that allows me to get back on the horse...even though I fell face-first into the sugar on Thursday and Friday

3.  A successful weekend of de-carbing with movement in the right direction on the scale!

4.  A willingness to exercise at 5:00 a.m.

5.  Being in a much calmer frame-of-mind and state of acceptance about the holidays this year

6.  Pictures of my new granddaughter

7.  Phone calls from my kids

8.  Christmas music and lights - my two favorite things about the holidays

9.  Sunshine & blue skies here today

10.  Promise of warmer temps this week

Have a great week everyone!

Exercise at 5am!!  RESPECT!! ;-)
