Anyone feel guilty about spending money for PS?

I went to a PS today and he quoted me a price of $18,000 for thigh/buttocks lift, arm lift, remove excess skin at bra line and on back. He will not submit for insurance approval. I don't get rashes or anything like that. I worked out a loan with my parents and I can pay them back with my yearly tax returns (will take about five years), so that is not the problem. The problem is I feel guilty about spending that kind of money for something like this. Like I am being vain or trying to erase all of my years of being obese. Then there is the nagging thoughts of what if I do spend this money and regain my weight. Then again maybe having spent this money it will be an incentive to keep the weight off. I'm so confused and feeling like I am being too extravengent. I mean there are starving people in the world and I am spending money on this???? What do you all think?
