Thankful Thread for 9/28 - 10/4

[Pandemonium 515]

Hey there!

Coming back with a new Thankful Thread for this week after taking last week off.

What are the things you are thankful for this week?

I am thankful for so many kind, compassionate, and uplifting voices on this site and the knowledge that they possess and share.

I'm thankful for finding some amazing 1-Carb low-cal tortillas and being able to share them with others here. I think I am going to pick up a rotisserie chicken from the store tonight and a jar of enchilada sauce just so I can keep using them.

I'm thankful that I'll be taking a small vacation next week and visiting one of my favorite places again. There's some stress about COVID, but I've got a game plan to keep the risk to myself minimal.

I'm thankful that I have lost enough weight that I can go hike in the woods for 2 hours and not feel completely sore and exhausted afterwards.

How about you?

I am so excited that today I weighed less than my husband for the first time in our 11 year relationship! He was about 20 pounds lighter when we met, and I was 5-10 pounds lighter than my current weight. He is also about 6 inches taller than me 🤦🏼‍♀️

I am thankful for the ability to log over 7 hours of exercise, according to my Apple Watch, last week. I could never have done that 3 months ago.

I am thankful for my neighbors. My next door neighbor hosted a neighborhood party last night and it just reaffirmed what an amazing neighborhood I get to live in.

I am also thankful for all the support and ideas provided from everyone on this site.

I am also thankful that I was able to quit caffeine back in April and have not returned to it. I may be tired on some days and could no doubt get a boost from some coffee, but I feel good without it, despite occasionally missing my Dunkies Iced Coffees.

I was looking forward to this thread!

So thankful for teenage children (no seriously) I can't imagine schooling under these current circumstances

Thankful that it's Autumn, I can finally have some reprieve from Air Conditioning everywhere (I'll be singing a different tune come Winter 🤣)

I am so grateful to not having to put my 16 year old dog to sleep today. I know it is coming very, very soon, but I was not at all prepared for an emergency like this. Thank heavens for animal insurance and quick vet response.

Oh, I am sorry that you had to deal with that today, but am glad that the outcome was positive.

I had to say goodbye to my 18 year old cat earlier this year and I'm still heartbroken from it.
