Did you name your band?



Recommended Posts

my band is named "the frog". the reason i chose this name is because my sister and i have a running joke about when we went to see the movie the princess and the frog and so "the frog" always makes us laugh (we say it in a funny voice). so then i got my band and noticed that my stomach makes all kinda gurgly almost ribbity frog noises since banding and so i have named my band the frog. it makes me laugh when i say it and reminds me of good times had and good times to come. :confused:

I never thought about naming my band, but I guess if I did I'd call it "Hope"

Grace. Because of 2 Corinthians 12:9, which says, 'But He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me.'

It reminds me that I need all the help (and grace) that I can get to reach my goals.

Mine is Lolita. She is a saucy Latina that craves spicy foods.

      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.
