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!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
