What's your Band's name?



Recommended Posts

Today my doctor told me some people name their bands :lol:. She logs the name and asks how "enter name here" is doing during appt's. Now for me to find a perfect name...

OMG This is hilarious you posted this because I was just telling a friend of mine last night that I am still wrapping my head around the fact I have a band in my stomach and so I feel if I name it then I will feel like we can then move forward in our bonding expeirence! I just cant think of a name for mine. I feel its a female tho...:P

I can't decide if I want to name it Bandy, or Mr. Bandit, something along those lines.

However, I bought a pillow pet to help me through the surgery and I named him Mr. Lappy Bear.

Her name is "Smidge" because she only lets me eat a smidge of this or a smidge of that at any given time. :lol2: I love being banded, it has been such a wonderful blessing.

:lol: hahaha those are great! I'm thinking of something along the lines of a great ruler. Controlling, but great. I'd say Caesar but I don't want food to stab me in the back. Oh, what the heck, Caesar is great.

How about ... Lucinda? you are going to"lose so much weight or your clothes are now to loose! :D For the the lapbanders who had surgery in Mexico, one could name the band "Luz".

I also chose Bandit for mine because he was being a bad band at the time and stealing my meals from me!

So DH and I refer to him in the third person. How's Bandit today? People think we are talking about my dog.

One of the best names I've seen here is Ralph!

Mine is referred to as shameless. due to his ability to be shameless about hogging the limelight at meal times! After all it is about him

Mine is named Hope because I hope it works.

One of our best friends named hers Love because she loves her band.

So we have Faith, Hope and Love!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
