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...

      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.
