Thanks Tamra for putting up the poll! I voted for 3 (hope is ok) so we could at least get it down to finalists. Congrats on your December Date, I like to say, it is a good time to get banded, so we don't 'sweat' the recovery...pun intended!

We have a strong group and all of us will do well! Let's Go December Bandsters!!! (til we decide the name, hehe):biggrin:

Thanks, Tamra, for posting the poll. Everyone will have a chance to pick what they like and we can get a concensus. (at least I hope so...)

Thanks again!

I think Pete would be the cutest Slender Snowfake.

Carol

I would have to agree with you, Carol. He would make a wonderfully adorable Slender Snowflake. Perhaps we could be "Slender Snowmen" and Pete (and myself and all the other southerners) can melt away in the warm winter sun. :rolleyes2:

Most certainly melt away down here. LOL - I haven't seen snow in over two years now and doubt I ever will living down here. ROFL

Welcome "40" or is it "20?" I keep telling myself 40 is my new 60! I agree with the name situation - not all celebrate Christmas, and we have a man in our midst (Florida Pete), so we need to be mindful of names that are too feminine.

I have 2 questions - what is your band date? and just what is the coldest major city in Canada? I was raised north of Duluth, MN (on the North Shore of Lake Superior), so I can identify with cold and snow. brrrr. This morning I was watching tv footage of the North Dakota blizzard that hit yesterday - it brought back memories... My thoughts go out to those who are trying to dig out this morning.

Hi Joann,

I'm turning 40 in August and by then, so many months after my surgery, I'm hoping that life will be starting all over again. furture bright..and all that stuff.

Winnipeg, Manitoba is honoured with the distinction of being the coldest major Canadian city...lucky us.

This past sunday, the kids and i were playing outside in the field across the street from our house and it was gorgeous. They threw off their fleecies and had a blast.

Then this morning, we woke up to about 3 inches of snow on the ground. That's probably the last time we'll see the ground until April or May.

I'm still thinking about a name for the december bandsters....Winter Wonders, perhaps?

My name is,

Aviva

Hi Aviva,

Weather changes fast! Esp early winter in the northland. I'm in Kansas City area - we had a record 74 two days ago. It will be 47 today and it is windy. Still not Manitoba cold, but the first cold snap is always a shock for Missouri.

I think Winter Wonders has several votes - be sure and add yours for the names you like. Many have voted for 2 or 3 - that's okay with this election!

      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.
