Here's what I am thankful for:

My God, He has given me the strength to carry on through the day.
My husband, He is very supportive over everything that I am doing and so thoughtful
My children. They drive me nuts, but they are wonderful.
My gym. They are wonderful and supportive.
This website. It has helped me stay accountable to my diet and exercise

I think that is about it for now, this will help me to keep accountable at night. Night time is the hardest time for me. I always forget and keeping up with the family is crazy. I am going to get it done though.

Hee hee. I think that is hilarious, everyone needs a guilty pleasure.

Here is what I am grateful for, the night of 4-2-09

My God. Always and first, because He has allowed me to make it through this day without over eating too much.

This site. Because of this site, I am starting to worry about what I am going to be eating at supper time, and because of this thread, I am remembering to post what I have eaten for supper (finally!).

My husband. I fell asleep on the couch after a hard day's work and a really good dinner that he prepared for me. Steak and fried potatoes. I didn't even go over my limit! HA!

My daughters. They allowed me to sleep and rest for tomorrow. I have a funny feeling it is going to be a long day.

My co-worker. I had been taking my job too seriously and feeling a lot of pressure and stress at my job. He told me that there is no way that they would think about firing me without having to go through him. I may not do a lot of sales, but I do a lot of stuff that no one sees. That made my day better.

My gym because I am going to have to go there in the morning. I used to not be able to have a local gym that wasn't unreasonable in membership fees. Now, I have the YMCA. Quit dancing I am able to go there and meet my goals. YIPPEEE!

I think I am all done now. See you guys tomorrow night. Time for bed. :yawn:

oregonlady

I did my realage.com assessment today and I feel full of gratitude for all the diseases and issues I do NOT have!!

As I answered the questions, I realized how truly blessed I am.

For all of you who are going thru health issues with family, friends or yourself, I want you to know I said a prayer for you today.

I am thankful for my health, and the health of my family and friends.
