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:

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.

If you have not voted, please do!

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!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
