Yeah... we know the feelin'. Those jerks in Alberta have got it all. :)

Don't worry about it, perhaps all you go through to pay for it yourself will make you appreciate it all the more?

(haha, I just assumed that most of us don't know or have Australians to be angry with, so we take it out on the next closest band-covered area = Alberta! sorry for the confusion :))

Jealousy rears it's ugly head (I kid :biggrin1: )

Yes we have it all in Alberta. $7 billion in surplus and they are talking about firing teachers :angry .

I firmly believe that whose of us that have paid for our bands have the advantage. We are more accountable and have more to lose if we dont make it work. I am accountable to my wife & son as the money that I took from our families finances is what paid for my band.

I agree with u i think if i pay for it i will probably take better care of it, since its my moving funds lol. Oh well u can always make more money i cant wait to get my bad. I still do believe Yukon health care should help a little bit but i should be ready$$$$ to go and get my surgery in Oct :(.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
