I have never contributed to this thread, but I think it would be good for me to try to do this regularly. I am usually so discontented & inclined to see the glass as half-empty.
- That my work evaluation for the past year is satisfactory, even though last year began as one of the darkest times of my life because of my father's death.
- That my mother's breast cancer has been in remission.
- That my 15-year-old Lands End sweater which I unearthed from a drawer at my parents' house now fits me & is very warm on a chilly day.
- That I am almost done with my part in a difficult & stressful new product launch at work.
- That I can now see some muscles emerging in my stomach.

Wow, reading this thread is inspirational! Here are my 5 things for today:
1. I'm back on 3FC after 8 years away and excited to be part of the community again.
2. I discovered yesterday that black coffee isn't so bad, and if I drink only black coffee at work I will a) use fewer WW points and b) drink less coffee (it might be less bad, but it isn't so good either!).
3. Lemons. They make getting through the day's water so much tinglier.
4. My new gym instructor (though I might not agree after I've done my new programme tonight!).
5. That I got back to sleep quickly last night after we were woken up by a cat spat in the back yard at 1.30am.
2. coffee, need a jump-start today
3. peace of mind that I have enough summer clothes to take on my cruise next week
4. warmth- a warm house in a cold world
5. note- a very nice note from a person whom I love
- coffee
- having the day off with no one home and nothing to do
- my son
- staying on plan today- this wasn't my greatest week OP, but I managed to pull myself together!
- this site and good friends to support me
