    Grateful that my son has started to run every other day again. He's been feeling bad that he was slacking. Grateful that my scale was down today and that a recipe was posted for "healthy" chocolate chip cookies. Made 'em, ate 'em (three). Just 2 bananas, 1 cup quick oats, 1/4 cup chocolate chips (or dried cranberries or whatever). http://blog.myfitnesspal.com/2014/10/oatmeal-chocolate-chip-breakfast-cookies/

    I'm grateful for the little voice inside my head today that said, "Go ahead, just get on the treadmill even though you don't feel like running." Getting started sometimes seems like the hardest part some days!

    I'm grateful for my bike! And for the beautiful weather today that made me want to go for a ride. I needed the fresh air and mental break.

    I am grateful for how gloriously beautiful the weather is outside today here in Central Florida. This is the reason so many people up north migrate here during the winter!
    Grateful my fall veggies are starting to come up...looking forward to fresh salads all winter long!

    I'm grateful to have spent time with my friend Sandra, talking and walking her dogs. Beautiful day with beautiful yellow, orange, red leaves and a slight breeze. Grateful to have received a used book I ordered (perfect condition) called Wabi Sabi illustrated by Ed Young. Captures the idea of ordinary beauty. Grateful that the scale was down today.

    I am grateful to have a good job, although stressful. I am grateful that I don't turn to food to deal with that stress anymore.

    I'm grateful for my amazing boyfriend, who brought me a beautiful bouquet of flowers today to cheer me up from having a cold. I still feel icky, but now I'm feeling icky and smiling.

    I'm grateful that the class I taught tonight went well. Glad I'm warm inside with plenty to eat and a cat purring at my elbow.

    Went for a walk to the lake today. Grateful for the sunshine, breeze, trees, and leaves...and the birds wading and fish jumping...AND that I really don't care if anyone thinks I look silly grinning from ear to ear the whole time because I'm loving it all so much!

    joflo I'm the same way! Nature makes me happy. It's the ordinary beauty of life that makes it worth living! Today I'm grateful for a peaceful Sunday and a good book.

    I'm grateful for little temptations today and for being stronger than my excuses.

    I love this!

    Today I'm grateful for the boost my husband gave me. Those words of encouragement helped me to keep moving and motivated me to make smart decisions.

    Thanks for the quote joflo! I went for a brief walk with my son today and thought about how being out in the air and looking at the clouds and having my feet on the ground is something that always grounds me and makes me feel lighter as well. Grateful for the beauty of nature. Grateful that the scale was kind today. Grateful to finish the All Souls Trilogy I've been reading so I can finally, maybe, get something else done, lol.

    Today I'm grateful that it's Halloween, my favorite holiday of the year and also my anniversary. I'm grateful for being with the same wonderful man for 16 years (married for only 7). I'm grateful for being able to hold him and hug him and smell his hair whenever I want without him thinking I'm a weirdo. xD

    Today I am grateful that my parents are still around and relatively healthy for their age. A good friend lost her mother today, and it really made me appreciate that I still have mine.

    Don't you think there should be a like button on these entries? I'm grateful that I did not go candy crazy this year and just had one fun sized Hershey bar. Grateful that class ended early so I could head home early. Grateful that my son is at his best friend's house giving candy to the little ones. Grateful to be starting the first book in a 7 book series: Outlander. Grateful for all the great people on mfp.

    Sounds like a good life. I have never smoked but have a lot of people in my family who struggled with it, just want to congratulate you on 10 mos. smoke free.
