Us Canadians had our Thanksgiving last month but I am happy to have another occasion to celebrate my thankfulness.  My Mom has been suffering from mini strokes and we were very afraid we were going to lose her.  Well, the best of all outcomes happened naturally for her and our concerns are gone.  She has had a rough life and I am so thankful that she is getting a break now.  

I am also thankful for the many wonderful friends I have made on these forums.  How ever did I manage before I found MedHelp?

It is we who are most thankful for you .. with your shining spirit and your commitment to your health and vigilance in helping others.  You and the others who participate this forum make it what it is .. it is the group effort that brings us together and gives us the comeraderie and spirit that makes us keep moving forward.

Thank you, twehner, for reminding me that "even if my weight wavers, my commitment does not" .. I needed that today as I jump back on board, on Thanksgiving, after having celebrated with too much food while introducing my brother and sister-in-law to my daughter and her family.  My resolve was not as good as it could have been when faced with restaurant food .. really delicious and gourmet foods .. throughout the weekend.  Gained a few pounds and am getting back on the stick today, of all days .. lol

Now, as for our beloved drill sergeant, guess he needs to crack the whip as I am headed back to the gym to work these most recent indulgences off .. I, too, am thankful for his support, motivation and positive attitude.  He really is most selfless in his efforts and I've learned he does this merely to help others.  I am blessed to know him.

Big Huggsss to you on this holiday designed to count our blessings and our friendships .. WoWWW .. we are blessed beyond measure!

I am thankful for my family (near and far), my health, and my salvation.  I am also thankful for my friends, old and new.  I am thankful that, as of 2-and-a-half years ago, I am committed to health and fitness, and even if my weight wavers, my commitment does not.

I am thankful there is such a thing as MedHelp that is free and offers a way for people like all of us to connect.  I am thankful that we have a community leader such as Ranae. I am so thankful to have an inspirational and knowledgeable community leader.  She pours so much of herself into this forum.  Her giving spirit trickles down to the community members and is why this community is the best!

I'm also thankful for our beloved DRILL SERGEANT, SKAILARK!!!!

I am thankful for life and the realization that each new day is a chance to once again try to live the very best life I was intended to live.  I am thankful for my family and friends and for the love, support, guidance and friendship that each of you has so freely given to me and to each other.  I am thankful to MedHelp for creating such a knowledgeable, informative and insightful community where we can all come together for support, motivation, friendship and togetherness.  

I am thankful for my new found brother, his wife and his family for welcoming me and my family with open arms.  It has brought about healing on both sides and is a wonderful blessing.  I am thankful I have lost so much weight and that even though I stumble from time to time, that I can regroup and get back on track .. and thankful for those who do not judge me but support me in my efforts with kindness and understanding.

It's a Wonderful Life .. if we just take time to sift through any difficulties and count our blessings .. for there really are far more blessings than we initially realize.  

May you all have the most blessed Thanksgiving and thank you all for taking the time from your holiday to share with each other .. that is the truest form of caring ..

Love and hugggsss to each of you ..
Ranae

I'm thankful for my health, family, and friends.  Much as I hate getting up everyday at 3:30 am Monday-Friday, I'm also thankful that I have a job to go to in these very difficult times.  

I'm thankful for the technology that allows us to find and be a part of a community like this.  I second that:  Have an awesome holiday.
