Getting right to the point.
Insurance sucks.
They said no to my lap band surgery. Why? Because they didn't want to pay.
They really don't know who they break down when they say no to something like that.
So, easy to say, I broke down. My heart broke. Because I was so confident and excited.
But, insurance can suck it.
I am on a mission to do this ALONE. My dad and I made a deal, that I'm keeping to myself, where if I loose 100 pounds by my graduation (in May) I get a prize.
I think it is a good motivation and I need to do this. For me.
SO, I need motivation! My friends NEED to slap my wrist if I go for something stupid! Hear me?? PLEASE STOP ME FROM RUINING THIS FOR ME.
Here we go again. A new start, lap band free.

Alexa, I am so proud of you, and all that you live through. You are an amazing person and friend, and even though you're beautiful the way you are, I'm glad that you care about yourself so much to try to achieve such a difficult goal. I wish. I was as strong as you are. Keep on being you :)
ReplyDeleteOf course the Mommy always has something to say.....
ReplyDeleteI think the absolute most difficult thing a parent can go through is watching your child go through such a difficult time and knowing you can do nothing but stand by their side. I feel helpless and sad for you as I know how devastated and disappointed you feel.
But...I always believe that everything happens for a reason....like I believe everything I go through is to prepare me to help you and Jaclyn go through your lives.
So what is the reason behind this......
I like to believe the reason is for you to prove to yourself that you have the strength and determination to do this on your own. That you are stronger than you think. That every day, you can make the decision to be happy, be healthy and be strong.
Of course, I am here by your side along the path of your life whether the path be through the highs or the lows....I am here to hold your hand and walk through it with you. You are never ever alone.
I love you and believe in you and I really do hope you know that you are one beautiful person in every way possible.
