As most of you know, I love quotes.  My best friend teases me that I can make any quote about the process of weight loss surgery, losing, maintaining and being on track.  This whole process since having surgery has changed my life - even the weight regain and losing it again, and staying on track.  I love quotes that provide inspiration, motivation and speak to me.

Here's one I wanted to share with all of you too!

"Before you struggle to get what you don’t really want, stop.  Consider what an exquisite miracle you already are." -Ralph Marston

For me, this quote essentially says that even though we may have more to lose, want to lose a weight regain, take our focus off what we don't want but focus on what we've already done.  If you have lost 100 pounds but have 50 to go, don't focus on the 50 but celebrate and really give yourself huge recognition for the 100.  

Have a great day!  Thanks for being in my OH Group!
