Names for my new sleeve



Recommended Posts

Okay so as of today I’m exactly 8 weeks post sleeve.
I’m trying to find a nickname for my new stomach because referring to it as “my sleeve” is just plain boring.
Anybody got any clever names for their sleeves? Looking for ideas

Never thought about naming my stomach. Ha! Like naming your car, huh? I'll have to give this some thought. We could get really creative with it.

How about putting your name into it somehow like I did? Lol

Since you have a "bear" in your name some ideas:

Teddy

Fuzzy

Grizzly

Winnie (The Pooh)

Yogi

I will stop now... :)

(I guess using part of our names would eventually make mine "The Little Forker?". :lol:

Hope you And Felicia finally sign a truce, well since Korea is and was a "police action" there cannot be a permanent cease- fire. I am usually "pistol- whipped" by MS Precious Pouch sitting quietly to see of

lol. These are all great ideas.
Hahaha, what I really want to call her now is “temperamental bi**h” but you can’t use that term unless you really know the person you’re talking to
So my Quest for a PG-rated name continues...

My mom and I both had the sleeve and we refer to it as the pouch. OR I just called it a she. Like if I'm having a bad day (gas pains) I always say "oh she's mad today"

Right? For the little bit of work I ask it to do, I would think it would have the decency to keep the complaints down to a minimum! LOL

      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. 🤞
