What's the story behind your profile name?



Recommended Posts

I find a lot of names on here interesting and I'm sure there are good stories behind how everyone chose them. Anyone like to share? For me, Kindle is my horse's name and she was the "straw that broke the camel's back" in my decision to have VSG. I feel bad for her, having to lug my fat ass around the mountains and would love to be able to hop on her without having to find a rock or log to climb up on. (there's a dozen other reasons behind my decision, but my profile name is my tribute to her and how much more fun we will have next summer!)

I had/ ridden horses most of my life. My best buddy I had since high school died 2 years ago. I’m excited to get healthy again and get more. It has taken awhile to get over it. Anywho mine is from my favorite show , one of my favorite songs. My dad, aunt, Dog died the same year so I’ve been pretty wayward for awhile too in many ways.

This is a fun topic! Thank you for starting it!
Pazza means crazy in Italian. And that pretty much fits!

I want to get back into sports/athletic activities that I used to do when I was thinner and in better shape. Just being able to participate would be a big win for me, so I'm getting sleeved 2 win!

First initial E, middle initial L, last name Forman. Put it together and you get elforman.

Also, my initials are ELF, the first joke my mother ever played on me and far from the last. Many people just call me ELF, especially at work when there are others who share my first name.

Random thought-
Maybe I should change mine to my "hooker" name.
Name of first pet: Tina
Name of first street I lived on: Smithfield
TinaSmithfield. Has a nice ring to it.

SeaGirl

Name of first pet: Sassy
Name of first street: Mimosa

I call it my stripper name. Sassy Mimosa

      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? 🤷‍♀️
