I have started a group for us at:

http://www.lapbandtalk.com/groups/april-2010-bandster-bunnies.html

I think it is important that we get together and share our experiences. My date is April 2nd so I wld like to let e'one know how the process went for me. Please spread the word. Wld like to get u all so we begin our journey together.

Thanks.

My date is April 13th. It will be here before you know it.:sad:

I know. I am so excited all I can do is read lots of posts. I am sure that we all do just fine.:sad:

My date is April 7th! It seems like forever away. I was hoping to get it in March, but the approval came to late to notify my work.

No date set, but I think April is going to be the month.

Same here, last PCP visit March 4th then they submitt to insurance. Keeping my fingers crossed for an April date.

I do not have a date yet but my last visit will be March 26 so Dr. thinks it will be sometime in April. I am really scared about the gas pains I've heard about and the hunger right after surgury. Any ideas? Any Advice?

I'm hoping for an April date as well! My last appointment is March 12th and then everything is submitted to the insurance company.

Lace, everything I have read says to walk, walk, walk, and walk some more for the gas. They also recommend gas x strips. For the hunger it seems be that you want to kep hydrated and eat lots of protien. They recommend protien first, then veggies, then if theirs room some carbs. Research on this site, there is tons of information! Good luck, Wayno:thumbup:

My surgery was supposed to be in March, but through matters beyond my control, it ended up getting scheduled in April. I am so excited! I can hardly wait! It feels like this process has taken forever, even though it has only been since January... of course, I have very little patience :wink:

Mine was supposed to be in March also. I also started the whole process in January. I found it's hard to find patience. But April is coming up!

April 12th here...

This is turning out to be the best year ever. By the Grace of God, my job is tranferring me to Huntsville, Al in the summer (where my family is). I get a huge raise in March. I have a surgery date for April 2nd for my LAP-BAND®. My hubby, finally got an interview date for his immigration status in March. We are buying our first home in the the next few months in Huntsville.

I am just counting my blessings and I feel God has been great to my family and I. Hopefully, I will be able to get in shape, look sexy, get off my BP meds and enjoy life. Thanks for allowing me to share this with u guys.

GO BANDSTER BUNNIES !!!:eek:
