Thankful

What a year this has been!  We just got through Thanksgiving weekend and I was so thankful for so many things.  I realized very quickly how blessed I am.

I have two very healthy boys who love me to no end.  They both are succeeding very nicely in their schooling and I'm extremely proud of them both.

I am engaged to be married to the most loving, patient & caring man on earth.  He steals my heart everyday.  I can never get enough of the 'blowing kisses' and his loving comments that come out of nowhere..like 'hey sexy, hey gorgeous'.

I've had three surgeries in 10 months and have been able to get enough strength to get through them all.  With the love and support from my friends, I felt stronger everyday.

My house finally sold in Perth and Geoff and I were able to move our family to Brockville which puts me only 4 kms from where I work.  We are able to build a new life and new memories in 'Our Home'.  As small as it may sound, I'm also thankful that my cat Trixie adjusted so well to being an indoor cat after being an outdoor cat for 5 years.

I'm super happy that I met so many new friends throughout this journey, whether it was through Obesity Help, Bariactric meetings or simply just walking down the road and saying hi to someone, not knowing that it would spark some kind of friendly chemistry and become great friends.

I'm extemely thankful for not having to lug around an extra 128 lbs anymore.  I feel super healthy and I have more confidence.

Thank you to everyone for being there for me, supporting me throughout this journey.  The journey never ends.....it continues every day, every hour, every minute, right down to the seconds.  Thanks for being part of it all.

Cheers,
Dee :D
