    Default So tempting!

    I got a card from my PS that he lowered his price if I get my surgery done by September 30th. If I could do this now it would save me $758!! Trying to get out of debt and then comes this. Then a new cc offer the same day?!

    Damn this is hard. I want lipo so bad but looming debt over my head just doesn't sound good. Tell me I'm right for feeling like I shouldn't get it done in September and continue to pay off my debt instead then be ready to do it when I can pay it in mostly cash.

    I thought you were getting rid of the weight you wanted with all the running you were doing?

    Free > not free

    If you wait, you won't have to worry about all that interest adding up. I guess you should sit down and do the math to see if it's worth it or not.

    If you had made a plan, stick to it. You will most likely feel better about it in the long run. You might be able to get it done for cheaper now, but will still be paying for it later!

    If you wait, and pay mostly cash, you'll less hanging over your head, and you'll be able to enjoy the results with less guilt! (might be my guilty shopper speaking, but it's true!)

    AND.....and....with all the new weight loss, i you keep this up when you DO get the surgery you will recover so much faster and better!

    All true. I feel less crazy now. Tolerating my current size now a bit better. God loosing weight is hard. I am hoping that he wont have to do my outer thighs by the time I can pay for the surgery with cash. Its still to tempting to want to open another line of credit and pay for it all. This new one is 0% interest for a year.

    Debt is bad, debt is bad, debt is bad.... *sigh*

    Girl, I hear you. I'm up to my ass in debt but every time I get dressed in the morning I look at my arms and think, "Hm, LipoZap is $2000 on my Care Credit with no interest... and what's another $2G when you already owe as much as I do?"

    Then I have to remind myself that $2G would pay everything I owe K, or would pay off my car, and I've lived this long with big flabby arms so another year won't kill me.
