EXACTLY, I would like new boobs, batwings gone, and my sharpeis thighs gone... but im almost 100000% sure my insurance would rather me be an ugly thin girl than do that. It isn't fair, but you have to step back and put yourselves in their shoes. The rate of failure or gaining weight back is very high. It sucks, and it may not be us, but they cant make an exception for one and not others.
