WLS Success-through Powerful Positive Attitudes
Thank you Yvonne
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We truly have an angel watching over us.
Yvonne,
I want you to know how much I truly appreciate your consideration and taking time out of your day to speak with ME of all people! I feel my struggle to gain control over my eating habits is not a loss and I'm not the only one out there trodding through the mud and trying to understand my addiction and how to overcome it.
There are tools out there and most importantly there is YOU!!! You have given me encouragement and I know that I will meet my goal! Every day is a new day and it's an opportunity for me to take control or let food control me. I choose to take control and be in charge of my life. Food can be fun and it shouldn't be the enemy. The enemies are food companies who pack their food with high fructose corn syrup and fillers and just crap that could pickle our insides and make us crave the sugar more and more. There are other options out there!
I will wake up every morning and have an Attitude of Gratitude! God has blessed me in so many ways and it's time to wake up and thank him for all of them and also to be excited for what has not yet happened but WILL!!!
May God continue to bless you Yvonne. I thank him for bringing you into my life and I am excited for the future.
Sharon
hugs, Y

HERE HERE!!!!! I second that!!!!
Over the past 3 years I have come to OH on and off. Having been on disability for the past 8 months I have had a lot more time to do so. Honestly I was getting very close to leaving OH for good here recently. It seemed to me that the only thing that anyone was interested in was seeing others fail, or telling others how to run their programs. I have always tried to boast the supportivness of OH but honestly I never felt it. Not until I was invited to join Yvonne's group. I am so thankful to have found this group. I truly feel at home here. I try to be positive in all I do and say, but there are those occassional days that I am not feeling 'quite so positive' I feel safe enough here that I can express that without being put down.
Thank You Yvonne!!!
