August Names???

Recommended Posts

I might be having surgery in August and I had fun playing with names. What about something like the the Triple AAAs-The August Affirmative Action or the August Absolute Achievers...some kind of play on the Triple AAA theme.

Or I also thought about the August Aces, August Over-Achievers, August Adventurers, etc....ok, I have too much time on my hands. :biggrin2:

Doesnt matter to me yall can choose what name yall want but as for me I have had this signature for about 5 mths now on here and Im not changing so I will keep it and yall can do whatever. No this is not meant to cause a arguement its just my opinion when alot of time has been put into something its not as easy to just whip up stuff u know and im quite happy with the two I have, the one in my siggie and another I havent shown yet.

So do as yalls wish I wont vote cause my vote is not going to change. Sorry!

P.s. thank you to the ones that said they like my signature.

That's not very nice, if you're going to post here and be a part of this group, the you should be a part of this group and go with the name that we all collectively vote on. Don't separate yourself by having a different name from the rest of us. Join us and have the same name as us. Since you are so good at designing, maybe you should create the banner on the name that's the winner.

MoonandStarzz,

It's hard to tell from the post, but you almost sound a little upset at the fact that there will be a vote. I'm sure everyone thinks your banner is delightful, which it is, but it's got YOUR name on it. Are you implying that we should all have a banner like yours? Why can't a name be picked for the group and STILL have the name banner? And then you say that you haven't shown the other "siggy" yet. Are you afraid that someone will steal your idea? Why don't you share with the group? My opinion is that you don't want to be part of the group and you want to be your own entity and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that. But many people. from what I can tell of the site, like the idea of a fun name. My suggestion is to the majority....pick a name you like. If moonandstarzz feels like sharing, so be it.

The Augustos-

“with gusto” means “with spirited enjoyment”

The Ardent Augusts-

This sounds a little uppity, but check out some of the definitions of ardent! This is what happens when you start poking around in a Thesaurus for things that mean win, achieve, triumph, etc.

  • Having, expressive of, or characterized by intense feeling; passionate; fervent: an ardent vow; ardent love. (Or, how about an ardent bander?)
  • Intensely devoted, eager, or enthusiastic: an ardent theatergoer; an ardent student. (oh, I’ll be devoted alright and I’m darned sure already eager and enthusiastic!)
  • Burning, fiery, or hot: the ardent core of a star. (oh, wait, that’s an August Hottie! :thumbup:)

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
