Good Tuesday Everyone,
You know....life is very short. One of the first things that I saw when I came to Obesity Help this AM is about Dr. Alberto Aceves passing away in a plane crash. SO very sad. I've met him at several OH Conferences in the past and he was a amazing person who dearly cared for his family and his patients. Please keep his family and friends and patients in your thoughts and prayers. Just proves NONE OF US have any guarantees of tomorrow. We should be grateful for everyday that God grants us on this earth and for all the blessings that come our way. I know I personally am. Today I am grateful for life....for today to make better choices than I did yesterday. Grateful for Obesity Help and all the amazing people that I have met on this site and for the lifelong friends who have come from OH. Grateful for my faith in God and for answered prayers....for my family, friends, life, weight loss surgery and my maintenance of weight loss even though I have had a small re-gain compared to my weight loss. Grateful for the chance to share here on OH daily and for being a support group leader for OH. Grateful for the sunshine and the rain that we've been receiving. Grateful for everyone *****ads my post whether you respond or not. PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today and have a blessed day.
Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE FOR TODAY.....“Now is the operative word. Everything you put in your way is just a method of putting off the hour when you could actually be doing your dream. You don’t need endless time and perfect conditions. Do it now. Do it today. Do it for twenty minutes and watch your heart start beating.” ~Barbara Sher

Good morning,
Already have a load of towels in the washer, work and dentist appointment is also on my agenda.
DH got his certificate of occupancy. He is staying busy and coming home tired.
Scales in top range again, no surprise since I have not done much cooking lately.
Have a great day!

Good Rainy Monday Everyone,
At least it is raining here in Texas where i live. Today I am oh so grateful for the rain. It also rained yesterday morning. We have been in a pretty good draught here and in much need of rain since our lakes are all way way down. I know everyone here is so grateful for the rain. We ALL have something everyday to be grateful for even if it is just waking up with another day to make better choices than yesterday. I am grateful for my WLS, family, friends, Obesity Help and the other online support groups I am part of, grateful for my life and health. Grateful that my middle son who has been sick for a week is beginning to feel better. Grateful for God and answered prayers in my life. PLEASE share if you will what your grateful for today. Have a blessed monday.
