Anyone up for a challenge?!?
KICKING KICKING...
Ya know what??? I had such wonderful support from here that post-op friends were willing to drag me into the operating room and tie me to the table so I wouldn't back out... now that I know you want that kind of kick, you've got it, from one more person (I know everyone here is behind you!)
I am a single mom of 3, hadn't worked for 8 years, and managed to find the money for this procedure. I'm now working part time (surgery was Sept 1) and will start full time next week. I am not in the best place physically to haul your tooshie to the doctor's offices, but if need be I will.
Here, this might light a torch under that hind end of yours... if you get this done, you will be healthier and better able to spend quality time PLAYING with those 4 children of yours. They will feel so special that you did this for them as well as for yourself. You will set a positive example for them, showing them that health matters and that sitting around unhealthy is not a good thing! You will be a visible reminder for them to know what they SHOULD do instead of what you want to do (overeat, be lazy, etc...) isn't that a great thing?
Okay, if that doesn't work, let's try this... how embarrassing would it be to collapse at work because of your weight and have your co-workers unable to get you into a bed to check you out? Or worse, to not be able to see your children graduate from HS because of weight related death?
Okay I'm being extreme, but I want you to get healthy girl, so do it... I want to know your schedule of appointments soon too, and if the money is an issue, St Francis is where I had mine done and it was only $400... would have done the PMRI thing if I had known they took a payment plan though, the program IS better.
