Tonight is the epic POWERBALL jackpot of 1.5 BILLION dollars :o and chances are I'm going to win! You have to feel lucky to be lucky right? Anyway I feel like I've hit the jackpot because I've lost 97 pounds to date. I know I will hit my goal.

And if I don't win POWERBALL tonight, maybe this was the 4 MILLIONTH post on bariatric pal and I won all that cool stuff that Alex Brecher was talking about.

Yeah, I kind of feel like I have won the lottery also. I just feel so much better overall. All of it isn't related to weight loss. I made a lot of changes before I lost weight. I'm so happy and content in my life that I already feel like a billionaire, actually probably better than a billionaire because I have very little stress in my life.

Haha! You really ARE feeling lucky, aren't you?

Ye of little faith, Jamie. Why wouldn't Margie win powerball? Someone will at some time. Why couldn't it be she?

@@Margie122, I don't buy powerball tix partly because I don't even know if my state is involved. My lottery-ticket buying history is only three times anyway. The last followed taking the friend who was with me out for drinks upon my having "won" a big, fat SUV-looking thing five years ago. It occurred within days of the weigh-in that showed I'd lost 115 lbs. I happily sold it to the dealer that GMC involved in the transaction. That said, you, good Margie, will win powerball. I feel it in my bones and also feel in my bones that you'll throw me a token cashbone when you do..

["Won" is in quotation marks because I think of winning as the result of putting in some work, e.g., weight-loss. I just happened to be at a place where GMC was doing a week-long giveaway of which I was unaware.]

I guess we are all going to win bc I'm pretty sure I also have the winning ticket. Lol. When I win I plan on starting a charity and giving a lot of it away.

Nope...I will be winning. We got our winning ticket this afternoon. It felt lucky, and so that means I will be a billionaire this time tomorrow. I guess I better start looking for islands for sale so we can hide away from all the "relatives" that we never met before we won! Cheers!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

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