Congrats!!!!!!!!!!! I am glad you are doing so well -
I am sorry to hear things are not going as you expected. Have you taken measurements? Are your clothes feeling looser? The scale is not the only measurement. I am pre-sleeve so you can remind me of the same thing when I am frustrated about something down the line too. lol. Keep doing as your doctor instructed and the scale will move again.

March Role Call!!

Not sure but I am crossing my fingers for March -
The IRS will not know you did not use your insurance. You include to the accountant and the IRS your out of pocket medical expenses. The amount does not have to be itemized. If the IRS considers the amount to be out of the reasonable range this would lead to further questioning. I only have about 6 people a year that qualify to deduct medical expenses unless they are in a nursing home. This is because you can only deduct the medical expenses over 7.5% of Adjusted Gross Income(AGI). I know that is a foreign language to most. Say your wages are $100,000 and you have adjustments for educator expenses in the amount of $250 and Student loan interest in the amount of $2000. And you have medical expenses of $10,000. Your AGI would be: 100,000 - 250 - 2000 = 97,750 and 7.5% = 7,331 Deductible medical expenses would be: 10,000 - 7331 = 2,669 I know it does not seem fair, but the IRS didn't ask me.
