Yes I named my band about a week after I was banded. I named it SNOOKIE after the short little over tanned chic from The show JERSEY SHORE. lol. My band is little, loud and obnoxious and can take a hit. lol

Hysterical! I love that nickname.

My band is Lucy. It's a nice discrete way to let my husband know I'm full or hungry just by saying "Lucy is talking to me." (Although I just realized people around me may think I'm hearing voices.) My husband even calls it Lucy!

My port is Ethel. Good pair and they keep things entertaining, never know what to expect from them - the same as the TV duo.

Ok as soon as I read this I flashed on the episode when they are working at the candy factory and can't keep up so they stuff the chocolates into their faces. OMG I am laughing so hard my incisions are killing me.

:thumbup:

I will probably give mine a name once it starts working! I have not hit my sweet spot yet, and it is frustrating!

I am naming my band Dr. House (after the show House), and I guess my port will be Dr. Suess. They will get along good together, LOL...

      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.
