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 ????

      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.
