Good Hump Day Everyone,
Ok I'm going to change things up today and maybe the rest of the week. I know that everyone who has ever read my posts knows how I tell everyone that we need to be grateful everyday for waking up etc. So today I'm going to change things up and ask you to share what you are grateful for after your WLS. If your pre op and want to reply..say what your looking forward to doing after WLS. Today I am so grateful that I can walk and walk and not be about to pass out trying to catch my breathe. Grateful that I can fit into any booth at a restaurant....grateful that I can paint my toe nails with ease and that I can buy clothes off the rack and not have to go to a speciality size shop anymore. PLEASE share if you will what your grateful you can now do...have a blessed day.
Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian

Good morning,
I am going back into office today so up early to make myself presentable.
Hopefully traffic will be better today, there was event at the Cotton Bowl last night and I got caught up in that traffic. Makes me glad I work from home and don't have to deal with traffic everyday.
Have a great day!

Think I ate at here a few times in a past life!
Work and exercise are one and two on the agenda.
Turn off the computer then go outside and play!
Sounds like you are doing great. Hope your DH feels better soon and doctor will give him something for the nausea.
Great you all are going on this journey together. Hope you will continue to join us on the daily thread.

hi :)
12 days post op, rny, took the kids to Denton Water Works all day, came home, took the kids to son's football conditioning, I walked as much as I could then went fishing, caught a good size catfish, quit fishing because abs got sore, came home, made dinner for the kids (ugh. I want to eat food SOOOOOOOOO badly!!!! Hopefully cleared for mushy foods tomorrow!!!). Tomorrow is my husband and I's post op appt with surgeon (hubs got sleeved 12 days ago). He's not doing so well. Hopefully surgeon can help. If not then we go to our family dr. Hubs intestines are hurting now. He has crummy guts and been dealing with nausea since surgery. I just want him to get healed up and MOVING instead of laying around wasting away all the time. :( Our recoveries are quite opposite but then I'm stubborn and have kids to take care of. Don't have time for laying around and doing nothing.
Anyway, down 25 lbs now. All of my pants fall off. Can't wear a belt because of the incisions, which itch like crazy I might add. :/ Wearing my tie scrubs for now.
Hope tomorrow is a great day for you all! :)
Good Tuesday Everyone,
Hope your having a good week so far. Mine is going alright. I am grateful it is going as well as it is considering the things that Ive been going through lately. Everyday of our life we should be grateful....after all we woke up alive and we have internet or wifi or we wouldn't be on Obesity Help...right?? SO see....life isn't all that bad. We should all wake up everyday with a grateful heart that the good Lord has given us another day to make better choices than the day before and life the life we've always dreamed of. Today I am grateful for Obesity Help. I've been on OH for a very long time....I think close to 9 1/2 or 10 yrs. and I am grateful everyday for the support and encouragement I've gotten and given over the years, grateful for my WLS and all the choices of different surgeries today that I didn't have a choice of, grateful for my health, family, weight loss and maintenance, grateful for God's grace, love and answered prayers. Grateful for all of the amazing and kind people here on OH helping others out with advice everyday. PLEASE share if you will what you are grateful for today and have a blessed day.
Hugs and blessings ~~~ Vivian
