Fellow CANUCKS: User Name origin



Recommended Posts

Mine is a nickname from a friend who has passed away a few years ago. It is a mix from my real name Robin and the cartoon character hobgoblin. Also my year of birth number.

Mine comes from my dog's name: Kwalla. Yes, I know it is spelled incorrectly but she was a rescue and that was her original name. Never really saw a need to change it. She's just fine as she is.

Mine is a sort of nickname. As I have a rather large set of knockers and my first and last name start with D, I am affectionately called Donna Double D, I just shortened it.

OK, My DH gave me my name. I have Fibomyalgia and a bad back so I can be found laying in my bed a good part of a bad day. My DH knows if I am not around I can be found in bed. He started calling me Snoozan Susan....but I kept telling him that I'm just resting. So now he calls me restin rosi or just Rosi for short.

Heldie was a nickname given to me by a mentallly challenged client of mine. At the time I worked with him he challenged my patience and made me smile at the same time.

      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.

      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!
