There has been some interest in starting a new FORUM for people that have lost their bands.

We need a name for this new Forum so put on your thinking hats and help us give it a deserving name.

IT will give us that have lost our bands a place to discuss specific topics that aren't directly related to the LapBand. I for one would like to have a place we nonbandstars can visit and get that support. Don't get me wrong we get lots of support from all you bandsters but it is nice to talk to someone that is experiencing the same things. RIGHT?

So what is a good name for this new forum?

As usual, Lisa, you are right to the point.

Howzabout Band of Angels?

Yikes.... hmmmm lemethink...

The Missing Link

Life After Band Removal

I like the whole "banded together" or "band gone, not forgotten" idea or here are my takes on it:

beyond bandland

once a bandster.........always a bandster (at heart)

lost our bands :ban: & still losing weight! :party:

"Life After Band Removal" sounds the best to me - mostly because I think the name of the new forum should give new members and visitors to the site a clear understanding of what that forum is about. Some of the other names are cute, or are clear to people who participate on the board on a regular basis, but the name should be clear to people who are not already on the 'inside'.

Oh sure DonnaB, be all logical and making sense.. sheesh

The Frito-less Bandito

but seriously, I like the simple Life after Lap-Band removal.

Deflated...

Inside out...

Bandless Buddies...

Or, I like bandayed's "Beyond Bandland".

I second Lisa's vote! Oh, alright, I really don't. But I'm not good with naming things. I actually quite suck at it. Let me know, though, 'cause I'm right there with ya.

Yup! My vote goes to this one too...

Life After Band Removal

"We're with the Band"

What about Band X ( not spandex )

Thanks for all the great suggestions. The new forum is "Life after Band Removal"

Thanks again and now I will close this thread.
