The most positive post on this site

If you're reading this, please participate! So, it's a week before Thanksgiving and I thought it would be fun to post a new positive thread each day up to next Thursday. For this first one, how about you give a shout out to at least one person on this site that you are thankful for! Maybe it's someone you just met, but inspires you. Maybe it's someone pre-op that you identify with. Maybe it's someone post-op that makes you feel like anything is possible. Whoever it is, give them a thank-you here and make sure you tag them :D

I am thankful for @@The Candidate, for new friendship and the promise of a good laugh. I am thankful for @@Kindle for her recipes and stories, @@LipstickLady for telling it like it is, @@Miss Mac for always being the voice of encouragement, @@BeagleLover for being the first to reply to me when I got here, @@woo woo for sending me samples of extra Protein packs she had. I could name so many more! Who are you thankful for? Let's make this the nicest thread going!

    So the common theme on me is that I just throw out whatever I'm thinking. Hmmm... I "blame" the brain tumor. They must have removed my filter when they took out the lemon growing in my head. HA!

Aww thanks girl!! I just now saw this. I love that fact that we met on here and have become such good friends. I know that I can count on you for support and vice/versa...

I am so thankful for Bariatric Pal. It is going to make this whole process alot easier!!!!

I am so thankful for Carolinagirl, B52, Too much fun, Catfish and Missy(who is no longer posting). These people inspired and motivated me beyond words. While I didn't have a ton of weight to lose it was a monumental decision to have the Band and with all of the guiding words from other bandsters I managed to lose over 65 lbs and maintain it for almost 2 years. That has never happened before. Even through the most stressful times in the past year with HUsband's health I have maintained. I am only sorry that most of the band folks do not post much anymore.

I am very thankful for @@proudgranny (Kathy). She is always so positive and encouraging to everyone. When I've been ready to throw in the towel she has used "tough love" to get me to stick it out. I appreciate her more than she knows.
