i was feeling okay about the whole having to lose 17lbs thing by friday until today. i haven't budged a pound since friday and i'm freaking out. i'm absolutely terrified that it won't be gone by friday. i was happy today because my insurance finally approved the surgery but that will do nothing for me if i get to my surgeon's office on friday and they tell me they're going to reschedule me because i didn't lose my 17lbs. these shakes are not cheap. i paid $225 for two weeks worth of these shakes. i can't afford to do that again, not even for a week especially considering i'm going to be out of work for a month post-op without enough hours to be paid the whole time. sure, i qualify for short-term disability but my whole salary barely covers my bills let alone 60% of my salary. did i mention i have a $500 deductible the day of surgery? sure, it's cheaper than if i was a self-pay patient but it still makes a pretty huge hole in my pocket.between the way my aunt is treating me and this whole thing, i just feel so sad and disappointed. i'm doing everything i'm supposed to be doing. for once in my life, i'm not cheating but it seems utterly hopeless. i think i might be okay if it weren't for the fact that my aunt isn't speaking to me and when she is, it's to bitch or insult me somehow because she's in the worst mood known to man and apparently it's all my fault. i feel like punching something
