  Happy Pre Friday Everyone,

Can't believe that the weekend is already here.   Seems like we  just left it behind us.   LOL   Ok lets get this post started.    We ALL know that this is a post to share what you are grateful for today.    As I think today.....I am SO grateful for all the wonderful people who I have met ( both in person and online ) here on Obesity Help.    There are some really amazing people on these message boards and for them I am TRULY grateful to have met and now call them my friends.    I am grateful for Obesity Help and all the information available for everyone to see here.   I am so grateful that my surgeon pointed out this website over 6 yrs ago.    Grateful for my WLS and all the choices of WLS for us to chose.    Grateful for my family and friends.    Grateful for second chances.....for us and for others.    Addiction is VERY real.....and lets face facts....we are ALL food addicts.    I am grateful that my 25 yr. old son is in a recovery program now for his addiction to drugs.    He told me that I did NOT understand addiction.   LOL  That is SO funny.   I told him....you can live without drugs...but not without FOOD.    He will be in this recovery program ( living there ) for 12 - 18 months.    I know he will come out a different person and for that I am truly grateful.    Sorry to have gotten off on this.   He is just constantly in my thoughts.    Grateful for you wonderful people here and your prayers.    Grateful for the upcoming OH Conference in New Orleans, La.   Can't wait for it.....less than a month away now !!!  Have a blessed and wonderful day and PLEASE share with us what you are grateful for today.


Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

GOD GRANT ME THE SERENITY TO ACCEPT THE THINGS I CAN NOT CHANGE;   COURAGE TO CHANGE THE THINGS THAT I CAN;  AND THE WISDOM TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE !!!!    THIS IS MY DAILY PRAYER.

Good morning Vivian.  Prayers for your son's recovery. 

So many things to be thankful for.... I'm so looking forward to the weekend.  My oldest daughter is coming to watch the kids so DH and I can go out of town for a wedding ALONE.  So, today, I'm grateful for my family & friends!

Today I am grateful for family and friends. The support and patience they have for me is humbling. My nephew who has been living with us for 1 1/2 years will be attending Western Michigan University this fall. Both parents are heroin addicts living in a shed. He came to us hoping to break through the opression of addiction. He has worked very hard, to much fruition. I am grateful to of had the opportunity to be a part of his life. I am grateful for OH and all of the memebers who contribute. This site keeps me grounded, makes me laugh, cry and empathize on a daily basis. Peace, Kahwren
