That IS cute! I didn't officially vote b/c my surgery won't be until June or July (if I get approved). I'm a teacher and have off in the summer. :thumbup:

When are you going to close out the poll BB? Also, everyone, I finally figured out how to post the logos I came up with so take a look when you get a chance.

I am going to make one more suggestion, if I MAY... :smile: (pun intended, bad joke, I know!)

After we get the results from this poll, I think it would really be more fair if we took the top 3 and then voted on them. We don't HAVE to but it just seems that other than May Flowers the rest are pretty spread out and if there is anyone on here who just doesn't like the flowers thing then they are out of luck. At least, if it was narrowed down to 3, there would be a better chance of it being a "fair" poll. I guess I would liken it to the presidency... they only let us choose from 2 in the end...

BUT that's just my 2-cents :lol:

I have been on vacation for awhile and just getting back to the boards. I like all the names for May. It will be fun to give us a REAL name.

I did have a meeting with my dietitian this week. I start on a liquid diet on April 24th with 1200 cal and 60g of Protein a day for 7 days and then only 860 cal and 60g of Protein for the 7 days just before my surgery on May 8th. I have to purchase IMPACT online to have 2 a day the last 7 days with one other kind of choice. I am working on MIND OVER MATTER.

It is going to be very challenging for me.

Missy,

We can do another poll, but lets only run it for like 3 days or so. You can set it up if you don't mind. I'll be heading back to school on Monday, all the fun and games are over as Spring Break has officially ended:(

Mae,

Welcome back! You will do great on the preop. Just remember what you are doing it for. It will be hard but worth it in the end :teeth_smile:. At least it's not a 2 week liquid diet. If you need supportm we're here for ya.

Krysten,

Sorry to confuse you. I wasn't sure how long we wanted to let this go so I just put in a date until we had a plan. We decided to let it go through this weekend so it closes tonight. If anyone knows how to do this "Officially" please let me know. I think Southern Missy wants to take the top 3 and repoll. I don't care either way, we ran the poll and will have results. So do we take the winning name from tonight or do we repoll? I am so confused too :sad: I am soooo glad I have you guys to help me out :scared2:

      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.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
