LB Names?



Recommended Posts

Ok I have to admit that I'm a bit of a goofy kid most of the time and I've seen some people around here name their bands. I just love this idea. :mad2: So I'm asking you, those that have named your band to share the names with the rest of us. And if you have a special reason for the name please share too!

I call mine "the shock collar"

I was thinking more of the bands themselves instead of our screen names. Sorry if I was a bit vague earlier. lol. losing my mind in the days up to surgery. :)

Minxz- Love Shock Collar. Makes me laugh. I picture the first time we tried to use one with an unruly dog... her poor little face. lol (we stopped using it after that and I even returned the thing... before the peta folks start in)

I figure it will be like getting an animal... you have to see it's personality before really finding a good name. I've only got 14 more days!

In the beginning it's a little heartbreaking to see your beloved pup yelp at the shock, but after a while they get used to it and behave themselves, especially in public. . . nothing is more annoying then a barking dog when your in a park or at a football game and the dog is barking at everything in site. . . mine just kept "smiling" everywhere when he wore it and people thought he was the most friendliest dog around (120 lb giant german shepherd) Friendly, my eye!:)

Unfortunately couldn't keep that pup. She didn't get along at all with our coon hound. And trust me an upset coon hound has this amazing talent to whine in such a pitch it will make your ears bleed. So we found the new one a really good home... with my sister. So we still get to see her. She loves it there. So all is well.

Oh Well you gotta love the screen names anyway

Mine is just my band. It's a tool. I like it, but it's just a tool.

Careful Paracelsus..in some circles "BOB" is an acronym for an adult toy :) Although that might be kind of fun?....

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
