Sunny Tuesday

I always feel better when it is sunny......
Today as I was waiting in line at the store I was talking to a young women, she appeared to be maybe 30 or so....she asked me about the South Beach diet bars I was buying....She asked if there were good and if they helped loose weight...she did not appear to need to loose weight but she was using a scooter and had a cane ....I told her a very short version of my weight loss and how the bars helped me get through the rough times of wanting to eat sweet , like candy and cakes....she told me a story that she too was once very obese but she choose to have Gastric by pass surgery, and she had a stroke, she almost died, she said that she was so scared for a very long time and even after all that went wrong she was better off today than before the surgery....that seemed strange to me....she said she was probably as good as she would be but she was still happier being in a normal weight range but still has struggles with food and the desire to want junk food...I told her about Spark People and how it helps me ...that there are a lot of people who could give her support and help her with her struggles..I also to her to try the South Beach Diet Bars, they help me with cravings and to get over some of the rough spots....they taste good , have 100 calories, have 6 grams of protein and 6 grams of fiber, 14 grams of carbs....but for me they seem to satisfy my cravings for more unhealthy foods...

I gave her my name here on spark people so I hope she will join us.....
I still am trying to digest the fact that she feels better after a stock that almost killed her than being over weight.....

Have a Healthy and Happy Tuesday....
and I must add THANK YOU GOD FOR THIS STRONG HEALTHY BODY....I NEED TO BE THANKFUL EVERYDAY AND KEEP MYSELF HEALTHY FOR MY SAKE AND THAT OF MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS...IT IS UP TO ME ...I AM IN CONTROL OF MY BODY....
