fun thread -- names

I once worked with a woman who's last name is Dick, that alone is pretty bad but her name is Benita and then they named their daughter Anita. Those are parents who are mean!!

Hey Queenie,Isn't Dick Trickle a pro golfer?

My last name is Wynne (pronounced "win", though most people guess wine or whiny). I guess that means I'm a winner. :)

Ok I have a couple - we have a local foot doctor whose name is Richard Hacker - Why would someone do that to a child???

Also there is a company in Coldwater, MI that goes by the name of Frost Byte owned by none other than Richard Frost - I bet he is having fun!

This is great - havn't laughed this much in a long time.

Thanks,

worked with a guy named Dick Master, when he was paged over the intercom, we'd all say "Bates"

HA HA HA I went to EMT school in Colubus, GA. My instructor's name was Nate Bader. He was a Master Paramedic. When we had clinicals we had to formally address him as Master Bader. SO NOT KIDDING!! I remember hollering across the ER for MASTER BADER!

I still see the patients reactions to hearing us call out his name!

picking myself up off the floor from laughing so hard.

Oh my god that's my last name too!

I was going to say I'm Wynne (win) and so far haven't lived up to it.

So... when someone goes for teh wynne it has a whole different meaning....

My older sister was being teased by some kid when they were little. My sister's last name was Howell, and this mean little girl would literally howell at my sister every time she saw her, or wanted to tease her. My mom asked what the big meanie's name was. It was.... Wolfe.

This is a hilarious thread!

Suddenly, I don't feel so bad about marrying a guy with the last name of Tweedy (from the Scottish folk settled by the river Tweed). Poor guy, he got into soooo many fights. My poor (future) children...

        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!

      Hiο»ΏΒ 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 myο»ΏΒ mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and eο»Ώxcited. 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’mο»Ώgoing 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 healthyΒ food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!ο»ΏSomeone 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.ο»Ώ

        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
