What's the story behind your profile name?



Recommended Posts

I find a lot of names on here interesting and I'm sure there are good stories behind how everyone chose them. Anyone like to share? For me, Kindle is my horse's name and she was the "straw that broke the camel's back" in my decision to have VSG. I feel bad for her, having to lug my fat ass around the mountains and would love to be able to hop on her without having to find a rock or log to climb up on. (there's a dozen other reasons behind my decision, but my profile name is my tribute to her and how much more fun we will have next summer!)

Im not a city person anymore although I have to work in the city, I don't like nor being close to ppk & hearing their conversation from my deck. I love sitting outside listening to coyotes howl & deer& turkey in the field.

Branmuff was a nickname in high school. It wasn't meant to be nice but I'm using it as inspiration to lose my "muffin".

Between his two and my three children (4 to 9 at the time) and owning our own business, our new family was chaotic and blissful at the same time. Now that they are 12 to 17 and our business has continued to grow, it has never been more true.

Love this topic!!
Of course, mine comes from the title of the show, LOL.
But THAT comes from the idea the doctor that did my psych evaluation told me about:

Basically bariatric patients (at least the first few months) are eating about seven bites of food at one time. Four Protein, two veggie, and one starch (thereabouts). Now, of course, I can eat more than that, but the title stuck because it was catchy, LOL.

Mine comes from first letter of My name and my Wiff's name and how longer we will be together "ken n talya forever". It was my idea when we first got married 13 years ago.

My drag/hooker/performer name would be RAMBO PARK.

I always look at people's name and try to figure it so this is cool.

Wls4me because one day out of frustration, after quitting weight watchers for me I said to my husband "weight loss surgery for me it is now". Not very creative

My hooker name however: Buffy Fifth Avenue. Sounds like I'm a high class hooker ????

      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.
