I'm thankful for the kind friends I have made here on DS. You guys keep me grounded. I'm also thankful I have such a wonderful husband who tries to understand me and does so much for me.

Thanks for starting this discussion post, Liliann :)

I am thankful for many things, as this is a special year of milestones for me, too. I am thankful to God for His constant support, for my family (especially my parents), and for just being alive since there were many moments where I might not have even been here. I am also thankful for my support group of friends both online and offline. DS has been a Godsend in so many ways.

I am especially thankful for my weight loss which is nearing the 60 lb. mark. I still have a LONG ways to go but I can see the light at the end of the tunnel for the first time in my life. I KNOW I am going to reach the finish line this time. It won't be in a month but instead take probably another year... but I have finally figured out the perfect combination of what works for me. Getting off my antidepressants after 11 1/2 years was the biggest factor (which has been the hardest journey) but has been so worth it. I've learned a lot about my brain and why it doesn't work the way it should and I am thankful for the knowledge I've gained and the tools to help me through this life.

My wish is that everyone on DS will have at least one thing to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. It just takes one thing to hold on to that will keep us going toward a more positive future.

Happy Thanksgiving, friends!!

I am thankful for my Lord who has carried me through many hard times in my life. Who is always is a constant in my life and is always there when I think I just can't go on anymore. I am thankful for my daughter, stepson and daughter-in-law and soon to be here grandson. I am thankful that I am coming into better health everyday and that I have lost over 100 lbs and keep losing and am able to keep on top of my lifestyle change and exercise. And I'm thankful for DS for the amazing people and continued support in this journey.

I am also Thankfull that I am maintaining my weight with my daily struggles that due of life duty calls and my caregiver duty, that my weight has not gone up to 500 pounds... Its a ongoing efforts and I feel very positive for 2013 I will make my 100 Lbs loss!! I am always determined and with my age and lifestyle changes..I will not give up!!

Bravo to those "biggest losers" this year...I Thank you for sharing your weight loss success this year and never look back,.YOU and WE all are WORTH IT!!!

Liliann (((((((((((((Hugs)))))))

Lillian, you are trying no less and that is what counts and there will be a day where it will just work. I tried for years and years with so many different programs, exercising and one day it just clicked. There will be a day where it will just pay off and you'll see half of yourself in the mirror. You have great determination. A lot of people don't even have that. They stay in the place of obesity for the rest of their lives without doing anything to make their situation better. You are making a concerted effort to make your life better. That is a great step to change. I believe you can lose 100 lbs. I believe it is possible. Just keep pushing towards your goal. I know you won't give up. You have it in you to make it all the way.

thankful for my kids, health,a place to live, a job to provide for the place and my wonderful kids.....
