Happy Tuesday Everyone,
Hope your having a great week and are doing well in your WL journey. I'm having a great week and I know it will hopefully get better everyday. The scale is moving downward and at going on 9 yrs. post op when that happens....it is great. That lets me know my "tool" of choice is still working. LOL I knew it was even without the scale moving downward. Today I am grateful for so many things as I am everyday. Today I am so grateful for my WLS and all the choices of surgeries today.....grateful to God and my faith in him and answered prayers. Grateful for family, friends, life and my health. Grateful that I haven't had any major weight gain since my life pretty much stays extremely stressful for the most part. Grateful that our weather is ( hopefully ) settling down and hopefully we will have less winter weather and more spring like temps. Grateful for all the things that I do everyday that before my surgery were only dreams or wishes of being able to do. Grateful for Obesity Help and all the support and encouragement on this site that has been a very huge part of my life for the last 9+ yrs. Grateful for you *****ad my posts and for my support group members. PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today and have a blessed tuesday.
Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Good morning,
I just might take your advise and take dogs for a walk today. Need to make a quick trip to grocery store to pick up a few things or send DH.
Work main focus of my day. Taking personal day tomorrow to go with Dad to doctors for bunch of test they are running.
Have a great day!

Little humor we all can probably relate too.
Fighting crime by fighting grime is what is on the agenda.

Had a nice weekend. Support group on Saturday was awesome. We had 9 DS'er attend, 1 from CO, 1 from IL and 1 from LA. Rest of us all local. Sunday I didn't do nothing. Got some much needed rest, which was nice. Busy at work today. Had 13 calls on my machine from weekend callers plus a couple today. My scales are at the top of my range, too. Hoping for warmer weather!

Good Monday and St. Patrick's Day Everyone,
Hope you've had a good weekend and ready to start a good week. Today I am so grateful for all the things that I can now do since my WLS. Having my WLS was truly the very best thing that I have ever done in my life. I am SO very grateful for that decision going on 9 yrs. ago now. Some of the things that I can now do that were only dreams pre- WLS were to walk for miles and not get tired, fit into any restroom stall no matter how small it is....to bend over and tie my shoes, paint my toenails....wrap a "regular' not jumbo size towel around me and it actually fit......to fit into any size booth at a restaurant.....get up from sitting on the floor without assistance......get off a couch without having to slide to the end of the couch and struggle to get up....were "normal size" clothes and find cute clothes anywhere and not at a speciality store. Exercise and not feel like i am dying and can't breathe. Those are just a few. Life changes so much after your WLS. I am so grateful for my WLS. PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today. Have a blessed and safe Monday and St. Patty's day.
Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Good morning,
Work highlight of my day as well. Monday light on meetings so hoping I can stay focused and get some work done. Hoping to take some vacation time soon.
Scale had lower numbers than I expected. Figured it would be up after working in ATL last week.
Have a great St. Paddy day!

The luck of the Irish did not go with us to Bossier and the pot of gold is still there. Was first trip there since Margaritaville opened. Needs a parking garage but liked the atmosphere and I broke even.
Have to get on treadmill when I get home. Scales were not user friendly this morning.
Work is the highlight of the agenda.
