Naming your Band :-)



Recommended Posts

I finally came up with a great name (I think) And thanks to my DH... My port is slightly tilted so he says I should call her EILEEN... for "I Lean"... What do you think?

I had to go for the obvious choice of Bandit, because he steals meals from me when he decides to be mean and get stuck.

I did a poll on this a while ago.

The name that really cracked me up was Ralph!

Hey Debbie - What's your Port's Name? I never thought to name mine. It's kind of like the forgotten can of lima Beans in the cupnboard - you know its there but not neccessary until you need it :-)

Before the surgery, I named the band - My Hero. After 5 weeks, I changed the name to My Friend - realizing that much of the work would still be mine.

Hmmmm....... name of port. Have to think about that one.

It figures! Somebody already had Phil. :)

However, mine is Phyllis. So, it is still original.

After last week, yours could be Wyatt 'Urp'!

I haven't been banded *yet* but I refer to it as *Annie* which is short for Anaconda. Only my husband and my sister know I am doing this and I needed a code word for when we are around other family. My sister has 2 boa constrictors so she suggested the name and I have to admit I like it.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
