Roll Call: What are you Thankful for?

Since Thanksgiving just around the corner I always love the tradition of asking our family what they are thankful for. So to my Obesityhelp family members what are you THANKFUL For?

For me it my Family, Friends, and the moments that I can spend time with them making great memories!

I have so many things to be thankful for but tops on the list this year are: my husband and two daughters who have been my cheering section since I decided to have surgery. That I was in a position to be able to go to Mexico as a self pay and do this. I know so many people can't do that even though compared to the Us medical care is very inexpensive. This is the year I decided to change my life and I am thankful that I made that decision...life is so much better.

Good Health

Good Friends

I am thankful for my friends and family, and the opportunity to spend time with them this holiday season.  I am also profoundly thankful for my new life after RNY, and all of the supportive and wise people here on OH.  I don't know what I would have done without you all.

It's amazing the support we get from our OH family! Have a great Holidays!

I am thankful for my husband.  He has helped me realize what's really important in this life and he always brings me back when I need to be put in my place.  I met him in the grocery store and we married after only a few months, but here we are, 13 years later, and I am so thankful for him!  I am also thankful for the job I have.  I am thankful I was able to finish university and become a teacher.  This has been a life-long passion of mine and not many people get their dream job (I just wish I had the dream pay!!!).  I am thankful for my two children; they make my days full of life and I love to see my own creation running around this earth.  I am thankful for my parents and for my siblings.  I am thankful for this journey, for the education I have picked up along the way, for all the people I have ever met in the path to weightloss, and to the gym...for always being there for me even when I am worst to myself in my head.  I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

I'm thankful for a lot of things,my pets, my friends, my family, my health, my faith, my job, even if it is a pain in the ass sometimes. I'm most thankful for my mom, she always has my back & loves me no matter what & she's still here. I miss my Dad, but am thankful for having had the greatest Dad in the world., & of course I'm thankful for the OH community & some have become like a second family, even though we're miles apart, it's nice knowing they're nearby whenever I need them. 

Now if they could just fix my sideways avatar. LOL 

There are a lot of things I am thankful for this year. My mom is done with her chemo and radiation. She is feeling better.

I am thankful for my husband and kids. And of course my four legged kids. Even though I have dog hair everywhere in the house. My one lets me vacuum her. I know crazy. 

I am thankful a little over two years ago I decided to have WLS. I am down 140 pounds from my highest weight. 

I very excited this year. I am making Thanksgiving. I have never made it before. 

I like it since I am in the control seat. 

I'm grateful for my husband who has been the most wonderful helpmate since my surgery.

I'm grateful for coming home from the hospital after 3 1/2 weeks and surviving multiple surgeries.

Im also grateful for my surgeon *****cognized something was wrong, for refusing to give up and for calling out all the stops and resources from her many contacts and willingness to try new to her methods to get my guts to work right.
