Gearing Up For The Holidays - Daily Word For Success! Money!

Hey Everyone,

I know you are scratching  your head on this one    You are thinking ok, what does MONEY have to do with my weight loss?    Well, it can be the do or die word for success   No matter what procedure we are going to have, here in this country, MONEY can dictate who lives and who dies.  I love the show Ruby, and wish her all the luck in the world as we have all been there and done that    But how many of us have the MONEY (or insurance plan) that would pay for a PC, Nut, Trainers, pre-packaged food and shrink?  And might I add, most of these services will be needed on an on going basis, even after she hits goal for life.

A lot of us were using the equity in our homes, for financing the procedure but that is not an option any longer   If we are lucky enough to get the money for the procedure then we have the money issues of food, supps, cost of exercise, new clothes etc......

Know the costs going in, have a plan, and being prepared will take MONEY out of the equation   Where there is a will there is a way. 

And do me a BIG favor  Write down all the junk you buy for food, including all the fast food places you visit on a daily basis (or use to), and eating out.   Have a dollar amount written down     of what you spend on those bad foods and with that in mind, don't tell me you can't afford the surgery and buying healthy foods after the procedure.  If you cut back and or cut out all the junk, you have a great savings plan going 

Bottom line, don't let MONEY stand in the way of making you the BEST you can be inside and out

Take care,
Kathy

MISSING THE MOVE TO LOSE THREAD?  HANG ON, IT'S COMING BACK AFTER CHRISTMAS.  GET YOUR BUTT DUSTED OFF AND GET READY TO MOVE TO LOSE AGAIN   

I was talking to my husband one night after reading OH all day. I was trying to get him to understand that the costs won't stop after surgery, they will be life long and I wanted him to understand we would have to budget for them. He basically said the same thing you did! So we sat down right then and listed all the Dt. Cokes from Jack-in-the-Box and Sonic, the eating out, and the wasteful spending we both do. It's amazing how much it all added up to! Although our insurance is going to cover most of those things you mention, I'm no longer worried about the life long costs. God does work in mysterious ways and I'm confident he will provide...he always has.

Amen to that, my friend, and thanks.  CV Linda
