OK, so I have noticed that many of you have names for your band. :lol: I am trying to think of one for my own band and need a little inspiration. Tell me what your band's name is and why you chose it. Also, I am open to any suggestions...

Thanks,

Jen

I have seen this too and I love it! I'm currently thinking of one for mine as well.

My friend helped me come up with the name "Pamela" - - here is the reasoning and it may change once I get to know my band better but here is the story of Pamela.

My husband has been in a band since we met 17 years ago...well a few bands....and one day before my surgery my friend and I were talking about naming my "band"......my friend started brainstorming throwing out words like "band" "groupie" "music" etc... and somehow we started talking about the most famous groupie, Pamela Des Barres....therefore she says to me..."THATS IT, that's your bands name...Pamela" We tentatively talk about Pamela when referring to my band. Granted, Pam and I don't know each other that well yet and I may change her name when I learn more about her personality and how we are going to get along. Right now, sometimes I forget Pamela exists at this point but once things get moving along, she may change from Pamela to Zoe, Sophia, Ester, or SheDevil...

Mine is the oh so creative Bandit. I chose it because he steals meals from me occasionally. He has a mind of his own, and does what he wants!

The Gov'ner.

For those not familiar with motors, a governor "chokes" the supply of fuel to a motor. Gov'ner sounds better than choker:lol:

Stanley. First of all, he is very controlling and therefore a man :) Also, he's a tool (get it, tool?!?) Best I could do. :)

Good luck everyone!

The chokey. For you Roald Dahl fans out there, you know what the chokey is.

I named mine George. It was a nick name my late father had for me as a child (my sister was Ralph), so it was an homage to him. :) Best of luck to you on your journey.

Just a question.....why am I the only one that named "her" a girl......is the band supposed to be a boy??? LOL - - maybe it is because it has a mind of it's own, but a female could be appropriate too because we change our mind when it suits us, we have an attitude and if we don't like something, BOY will we let you know :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.
