So, did you claim every medical expense given you had more than 7% of your income (I'm assuming because that's the rule right?). Since I got my 7% in January should I be saving every medical after that to claim?

Cool, we hit 10% too so that's all good and given bariatrics and diabetes I'll be adding to the pot I'm sure! Do healthcare premiums count in that?

Premiums should be paid with pre-tax money, so the only way you can declare them is if they're paid with post-tax money for some reason.

I paid about $7k for a TT. I definitely think it helps me mentally in maintaining. After spending all that $ and having the flattest tummy ever as an adult I do NOT want to mess it up!
