SMOKEY! Being from Detroit and growing up during the Motown era, I named "him" after Smokey Robinson because he's my own little Miracle!!!

Mine is Hildegarde which means battle fortress. She is my fortress in my fight against fat. On good days I call her Hildy! My kids ask if she is being a Hildegarde (really finicky) or Hildy (loosened up).

My bands name is Chokum. This makes no sense in English but it means small or a little in Korean. It only seems fitting since it only lets me eat a small amount or a little bit of food.< /p>

I never named my first band and it wasnt until I had drains that I came up with names ( with the help of some of my bandster sisters). Chokum has a very close friend Polo (port), and they are always attached at the errr hip? Polo causes some problems sometimes though and likes to hide from our frienemy Marco ( The doctor).

It really hurts me when Polo hides from Marco, but since Chokum is a bit afraid of Marco I can see why Polo is only trying to protect him.

Did you catch all that? lol

I call mine "baby foot" because I have always been able to feel it next to my belly button and it feels like a baby foot. sometimes when I bend over it will poke me. so it acts like a baby foot sometimes to. ;)

This is interesting. I guess I'm behind times, because I have never heard of this !

But I will dig deep, and try to come up with a name of someone from the Starvation Nation.

Well I am not banded yet but, just as a couple looks forward to the baby they are adopting, I am doing the same here. So...when I refer to my future new "baby" so to speak. I always call HER Bandelina. She is small like thumbelina and hopefully will assist me with her "fairy dust". Lol.

Some how I keep coming up with the name Welcome to the Jungle !

Seeing where its placed, then the construction itself, all the scar tissue they keep telling me I have ! ! ! It's a Jungle in there... So from the Starvation Nation,,,, I choose "Welcome to the Jungle!" A bit long but appropriate.

      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.
