Okay so as of today I’m exactly 8 weeks post sleeve.
I’m trying to find a nickname for my new stomach because referring to it as “my sleeve” is just plain boring.
Anybody got any clever names for their sleeves? Looking for ideas

So I’m definitely thinking it needs to be a female type of name.
I’m leaning toward “Myrtle” because it’s kinda fun and funky and the meaning of it is “victory”
And most importantly, I don’t know anyone in rl named Myrtle

I feel ya on that! I'll post some ideas as I think about it more

A lady I follow on ig calls hers Petunia. Like get it together Petunia!

So, I got to thinking about a female name....

How about Katniss?

As in Katniss Everdeen the main character from (what else) The Hunger Games.

Mine is Baby. Because of the amount and consistency of the food when it was brand new like a baby. It would sometimes need burped like a baby and would be fussy when hiccups came.

Now I can eat real food... my Baby’s all grown up!

Lol.

I’m also considering the name Cleo- short for Cleopatra—- the queen of denial.

Steve. Steve the sleeve. Done

Has a nice ring to it lol

How about Virgil S. Gastrectomy for VSG? Still like all the others too, who am I to rock, the boat, after all I named my pouch Precious although some days Dang You would have been better!

Mine has different names for different times and different audiences. But generally she’s Polly Pouch. My little 2 year old grand daughter calls my stomach “ jiggle tummy”. She loves to push it and watch it jiggle. She then laughs hysterically. She’s so cute. I hate it. But we all laugh. It’s real life.

Hadn't thought of naming it before. Gonna have to think about this one.

I had a lap band for 9 years and I called her Lola, because what Lola wanted we got to eat, but what she didn't we spit up. But I hope the sleeve is better.

I named mine keke. She’s small, cute & feisty at times. Overall she’s been a trooper tho.

Evil monster who doesn’t let me eat? Pain in my gut? Little sh*thead? Is it gas or is it an ulcer? I could come up with mean names for my pouch.

Petunia is too close to what I’d name my vagina ?. Can’t have two petunias!
