"Hi, my name is George" - says my tummy - did you name your sleeve?



Recommended Posts

Thought it might be fun to revisit a few old topics.

Did you name your tummy? Mine is George. I named him really early on because talked all the time ("burp", "gurgle", "gnnngggg", etc), I figured he needed a name.

Yes. My sleeve's name is Ki Ki and she is definitely a DIVA!

I have not named my sleeve but find the idea quite enchanting, will need to give it some thought.

I read one post on here about names. The one I liked was "sleevie wonder". Thought it was hilarious!

I would have trouble naming mine because I am one of the few who have both the sleeve and bypass...I suppose I could call it Jekyll and Hyde....good and evil.....light and dark.....day and night....unlimited options..LOL

I named mine "Fred". Close to 10 months post-op, he still has some attitude.

I almost named mine Fred, but I have a plant named Fred. I was afraid I would confuse my plant :P

Mine is Sally the B*tch LOL That first week she yelled, stomped her feet, was a real pain in the keester when just a trickle of cold Water went down.....made her presence known......what a brat LOL

But now most day's she's just Sally.....I had just eaten the other day when I got a phone call, and Sally was singing away so loudly, that she could be heard on the other end of the cnversation....we had a good laugh

Squishy.

I shall call him squishy and he shall be mine and he will be my squishy.

Edit:

Squishy when she behaves. Sleeve Buscemi when she acts stupid.

I named her, Betty Poop. My real name is Debbie and people have heard it as Betty most of my life so it's kind of a nickname and I love Betty Boop, just changed the B to a P...well you know why ;)

I never thought of doing so. Nothing against anyone who has but it seems a bit weird to me.

I thought I was the only weirdo who named the new tummy! It seemed natural to name it because she is like this diva part of my body. I named her....SASHA FEARLESS lol because she is a diva (like Beyoncé...Sasha Fierce) but I am always fearless, hence we call her SASHA FEARLESS.

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
