Posted: Mon Nov 18, 2002 5:54 am Post subject: I named my weight loss Obie City, and you....?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I belonged to Weight Watchers, some of us decided to "name" our weight loss because it's always the weight of another person, from babies weighing a few pounds to toddlers, teens, and adults weighing all kinds of pounds. Some "losers" referred to it as a cyber baby, but everyone thought up a clever name.

I decided on Obie City. After I'm banded, I will start adding weight to Obie City until he's a big feller, ready to go out in the world to fend for himself. Or maybe we could send them all to a special place called Fat City. One condition: he can't come back. He can email and he can call, but he can't come back.

Some other names could be: Ima Gedden Thinner, Bustine Out, Thurgood

Tobie Lighter, or Hips Ahoy. Well, you get the idea. Thought it might be fun to watch each others' little critters grow and grow, the bigger the better. What do you think?

I read this on another forum and thought it was hilarious. Kind of reminded me of this thread and something Lisa/ Delarla said about somebody gaining our weight that we have lost. Otherwise this was a DEAD website. BORING, I left a couple of posts for people aiming them towards this sight. It was basically a few posts from a few people researching the band or on their way for a band and didn't seem to know much about it. Not very active AT ALL. Teresa

      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!
