How Did You Choose Your Screen Name?



Recommended Posts

I used to be really into Adkins Diet. I worked great but, of course, I gained it back whenever I stopped following it.

I use Dooter, because that is what a neighbor/friend of my mom used to call me in high school. She always added names to the end of a real name. My mom was "Barber Darber" and I was "Dani Dooter." (She was nutty!) Then she just started calling me Dooter. So, later when I got a computer and email and such..97?...I started using Dooter because it was ALWAYS available. (not so much anymore!) Then someone at church got a hold of this information a couple years ago, now they all call me Dooter. Now it's my "go to." So.......there ya have it.

I've been "Malyss" since about 1996 or so when I first logged onto LambdaMoo (a MUD/MUSH-esque type of thing) and I needed a decent screen name. "Malyss" rhymes with malice. I prefer to use Malyss for most of my online activities. I like the name. It looks pretty but has darker undertones...sort of how I somewhat imagine myself or some alter ego form of myself.

I first chose sleeveforme not realizing there was someone with sleeve4me so I decided to change it to 100%sleeved when I realized I could no longer stuff myself the way I use to.

      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.
