Do you have a prize when you make your goal?

I am so wanting a pair of those True religion skinny jeans. What is your goal prize? I also want a diamond eternity band to Celebrate my band:)

The diamond eternity band to Celebrate your band is such a neat idea. I honestly had not thought of a gift for myself to celebrate reaching my goal. I will have to think about it.

Howdy! I told my hubby that when I reached my goal weight, I want a new wedding ring set. I'm thinking a tenth of a carat of diamond for every 10 pounds I lose. That will be roughly a 1.35 carat-sized rock he will be paying for! :sad:

When I reach my goal weight I am going to reward myself with a flat tummy. I'm already saving my money for more surgery.

Great idea and I never thought of it. I love the eternity band to Celebrate the band.

I will treat myself to a complete spa day.

I'm going to pay for a guided summit attempt of Mt. Rainier.

I hauled my gut up quite a few pretty big mountains, I'd be excited to attempt the big mama with no belly.

I've come up with mid-way goal gifts (when I reach 50% of my weight loss goal). I am going to treat myself and my Mom to a spa day and buy myself some new clothes, which will be desperately needed by then.

For my ultimate goal, I need to think about it. Maybe a ski trip or a Caribbean cruise. Something kinda major.:sad:

Mine is simple, a snow board and a trip with my two sons to the mountain! I went skiing with them this year and had to stay on the green slopes cause I was afraid of crashing and breaking bones. So a new board and a trip to the blues and maybe blacks.

Just what I was thinking as well, no sense resizing my current set! A 1.5 carat rock will look really big on my new skinny hands!

Going on a cruise on the Norwegian Epic when I hit goal, I can't wait. I set mini goals for myself and so far doing well. Every 20 lbs i get my manicure, at 50 lbs I went on the NCL Sky for 4 nights, and then did the Crown Princess for 7 nights. We did the 75 lbs early as i am 9 lbs away from hitting that goal but it was Busch Gardens, however it was also a Valentines gift.

I want a Tummy Tuck and new clothes. I can't really think of anything else though, but maybe when I get banded I'll find something else I want . :sad:

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL
