Did you name your band?

Hi Everyone!

I am curious. After two years, I have decided to name my band.

His name is Bandit. He is male because he acts as my "Food Police" the way my DH once did.

He is Bandit because he sometimes steals my meal from me!

My DH and I like it, he can ask how Bandit is doing and no one knows what we are talking about. Sort of like our little code. A bit of silliness.

So, did you name yours? Why or why not?

I am curious if you think giving a band a name gives credit to something other than yourself for your losses, when it is really YOU to whom the credit belongs. You make the proper food choices. You do the exercise.

What do you think?

I will probably give mine a name once it starts working! I have not hit my sweet spot yet, and it is frustrating!

My Band is named PITA ( Pain In The Ass ) :-) It works just fine most of the time, but when it doesn't ??? Look Out! LOL

I havent named my Port. It seems many have their ports close to the surface ? Mune is so deel I cant feel it unless I'm laying flat on my back. And even then its not always easy to find.

Once a Trek Fan, Always a Trek Fan, I guess!

Hugs all around,

I am naming my band Dr. House (after the show House), and I guess my port will be Dr. Suess. They will get along good together, LOL...
