Well I wasnt very imaginative here. Sometimes I go by 9mm4ya which is stands for 9 millimeter for ya but I dont want to give the impression I am a gangster or anything of the sort. My last name is Gunn so thats how I came up with gunn4ya.

Penni - you always make me giggle when I read your posts.

My one nick name that I use when I play online poker(not for real$) is BrickHaus... It didn't seem quite appropriate on LBT so I made it I'll succeed. I thought maybe just maybe this would be the one time I do.

Than when I found the "family Guy" avatar I just cracked up . I Love it when he shouts"Victory is Mine". LOL

Anyone else watch that show? - I love the humor.

I joined here about 2 weeks before banding when I was at my lowest point, so I chose 4x4x4 because that's how I saw myself. But after getting my band and starting to lose weight and feel better, I changed it to New Hope, because I finally felt better about life and myself. And it just keeps getting better!

Bubba is what my family calls me. Now they got that from one of the Country songs about Bubba and some juke box. Ever since then they have called me Bubba. ME are the initials to my name.

Well when I discovered this board and had to create a nickname I was feeling pretty lonely and sick and I mispelled it, guess the fingers were typing too fast. lol. So I typed feelingloney, well I am looney most of the time... Oh, Well and now I'm stuck with that, or am I, how can I change it?

My name is a tribute to my Dad's love of word play and anagrams. I was the first born, and of course was supposed to be a son, who would be named after his father, Donald, and then take Dad's middle name, Lee, for my middle name.

As the fates would have it, I was a girl. Rather than abandon his original plan altogether, he dropped the "d" on the end of Donald and replaced it with an "i" for "Lee", and then I got my Mom's middle name as a middle name.

It's pronounced "Donnelly", and has caused me nothing but problems my whole life, but I love it anyway. :)

Because my last name is a very common boy's name, I was forever being segregated into the boys' sections by my name. Very first experience - ending up in the boys' Sunday School class at five years old. lol

I've been told I'm not authorized to speak on my accounts - they are only authorized to speak to Mr. Donali, I've been advised to have my "husband" add me to the video account I set up in my name, I've received recruitment letters from the military... lol

It's been a fun and interesting ride... :)

Sorry, but I just gotta do a quick hijack after Donali's story. A strange man started telling me his life's story in line at the store. He said his name is W Dot (W.) His mom wanted to name him William, but his father refused to have a son that would be nicknamed Willey. So his birth certificate says W. and he pronounces it W Dot.

Donali, I LOVE your name. And I love the story behind it! Of course I've been pronouncing it wrong, so I'm really glad you cleared that up.

I can relate to being classified as male on occasion. When I was in high school I went to a convention at Princeton University for March of Dimes volunteers. Upon arrival I discovered I had a male roommate! (And just for fun, his nametag said that his middle initial was NMI, as in "no middle initial.") Wow, did they screw that up! :)

Donali, I'm with Alex. I love both your names. When I was in 5th grade there were five girls named Lisa, so my name has always been Lisa K. (from my last name.) My whole life everyone thought my name was Lisa-Kay. I went to broadcasting school after I graduated, but they told me my last name would never make it on the radio, so I officially changed my name to Lisa Kay (no middle name.) That was my radio name but I never got on the air cuz I hated it.

But I hated Lisa K. as a kid, so my mom said she'd pay for me to legally change it. She gave me tons of name books, but being the double Libra that I am, I was never able to make a decision. Now I wish I would have picked Six or Zoe or something cool.

Lisa, I know there was a thread before about stripper names, but we used to say to get your stripper name you use your first pet's name and your mother's maiden name...voila - your stripper name! Maybe you could change your name to that!?

      Four days post surgery. I am sipping as fast as I can and getting NO WHERE near the goal of 60 - 80 grams of protein or the 64 oz of liquids. I just feel FULL. I don't know if it can still be the gas build up (I would think by now that would be gone) but it is a struggle to drink. And so far I have not had the nausea or spasms and don't want to wander into that territory by pushing too hard with liquids. I about passed out today as it was my most "strenuous" day. Went from second story to basement for shower and I was sure I was going to pass out. Looking back on my last few days I have had a total of less than 1000 calories. Am I just not getting enough nourishment in me? Once again a friday where I can't get ahold of the doc until Monday rolls back around so I am hoping maybe someone here has some experience on how to keep energy going. I do have fibromyalgia too and that may be where some added fatigue comes into play. How did you all fair with the goals the week after surgery?

      2 days until I fly out to San Diego to have my Bypass Surg. in Tiajuana Mexico. Not gonna lie, the nerves are starting to surface. I don't fear the surgery itself, or the fact that I'm traveling alone, but its the aftermath that I'm stressing about the most, after this 8 week wait. I'm excited to finally be here, but I am really dreading the post surgical chapter. I know its going to be tough, real tough and I think I'm just in my head to much now that the day i here. Wish me luck, Hopefully I'm one of the lucky ones, and everything goes smoothly. Cant wait to give an exciting update,. If there is anyone else have a June bypass or even a recent one, Id love to have someone to compare war stories with. Also, anyone near San Antonio Tx? See ya soon with the future me. 💜

      2. Selina333

        I'm in Houston so kind of near you and had the sleeve in Dec. Down 61 lbs. Feeling better. Was definitely worth it. I hope the everything is going well for you. Update us when you can!

        I am back home after my bypass surgery in Tiajuana. I'm post op day 4. Everything went great! I guess I'm one of the lucky ones who have not encountered much pain at all, no nausea thus far and I'm having no problem keeping down broths and water. Thank you for your well wishes. I cant wait to keep up this journey and have a chance at better health and simply better quality of life. I know there will be bumps in the road ahead, and everything won't be peaches and cream, but at least I have a great start so far. 😍

      I am new here today... and only two weeks out from my sleeve surgery on the 23rd. I am amazed I have kept my calories down to 467 today so far... that leaves me almost 750 left for dinner and maybe a snack. This is going to be tough for two weeks... but I have to believe I can do it!

      Hey everyone. I'm new here so I thought I should introduce myself. I am 53y/o and am scheduled for Gastric Bypass on June 25th, 2025. I'm located in San Antonio, Texas. I will be having my surgery in Tiajuana Mexico. I've wanted this for years, but I always had insurance where bariatric procedures were excluded. Finally I am able to afford to pay out of pocket.  I can't wait to get started, and I hope I'm prepared for the initial period of "hell". I know what I have signed up for, but I'm sure the good to come will out way the temporary period of discomfort and feelings of regret. I'd love to find people to talk to who have been through the same procedure or experience before. So I look forward to meeting you all. Hope you have a great week!

        I'm so happy for you! You are about to change your life. I was so glad to get the sleeve done in Dec. I didn't have feelings of regret overall. And I'm down almost 60 lbs. I do feel a little sad at restaurants. I can barely eat half a kid's meal. I get adults meals often because kid ones don't have the same offerings at times. Then I feel obligated to eat on that until it's gone and that can be days. So the restaurant thing isn't great for me. All the rest is fine by me! I love feeling full with very little. I do wish I could drink when eating. And will sip at the end. Just a strong habit to stop. But I'm working on it! You will do fine! Just keep focused on your desire to be different. Not better or worse. But different. I am happy both ways but my low back doesn't like me that heavy. So I listened (also my feet!). LOL! Update us on your journey! I'm not far from you. I'm in Houston. Good luck and I hope it all goes smoothly! Would love to see pics of the town you go to for this. I've never been there. Neat you will be traveling for this! Enjoy the journey. Take it one day at a time. Sometimes a few hours at a time. Follow all recommendations as best you can. 💗

      2. Doughgurl

        Thank you so much for your well wishes. I am hoping that everything goes easy for me as well. We don't eat out much as it is, so it wont be too bad in that department. Thankfully. Also, I hear you regarding your back and feet!! I'd like to add knees to the list. Killing me as we speak! I'm only 5' so the weight has to go. Too short to carry all this weight. Menopause really did a doosey on me. (😶lol) My daughter also lives in Houston. with her Husband and my 5 grand-littles. I grew up in Beaumont, so I know Houston well, I will be sure to keep in touch and update you on my journey. I may need some advice in the future, or just motivation. Thank You so much for reaching out, I was hoping to connect with someone in the community. I really appreciate it. 💜

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        I hope your surgery on Wednesday goes well. You will be able to do all sorts of new things as you find your new normal after surgery. I don't know this from experience yet, but I am seeing a lot of positive things from people who have had it done. Best of luck!
