I like Freedom Fighters. If someone doesn't mind helping me get the logo in red white and blue that is :)

My date is July 24th. I too have been on a 6 month diet program and its taken forever it seems to get here. I am looking forward to NEXT fourth of July and being thinner and happier in summer clothes. :grouphug:

There is another thread on which July Jewels is popular. I thought I was being original when I suggested it, but then I came across this thread and realized it had already been suggested. :grouphug:

Either is okay with me. I just always think of the movie when I hear Freedom Fighters. That's just the teacher in me though.:)

Oh, I just thought of something...what about The Firecrackers? It's a spin off from Freedom Fighters but not so literal. Just throwing that out there.

Evie, I like it too! I wonder if we could just put July in front of it?

I'm imagining it with like red, white, and blue sparkly text. :ihih:

I did a sample for the Freedom Fighter name--- check it out- couldn't find a red, white and blue theme but the red is good? Some of the glittermakers have too long of code for our signature box.... Let me know what you guys think!!

Hey Gang,

I am happy to join in! I am scheduled for July 22. Boy did the 6 months of hoop jumping fly by fast. I wish everyone the best, and hope we decide on a good name.

I like July Jewels and Freedom Fighters. Hey wemmie - this is just brainstorming, so no need for apologies. Any idea is a good one.

I am also getting banded in TX on 7-7! It has been a LONG road getting to this point (initial consult 2-18). I am excited and scared, but mostly excited. :thumbdown:

      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
