I made a little banner for our "group"

See below VVVV "bunny bandsters"

If you like it the way it is -

go to this link and copy the Bulletin Board (1) code (near the bottom on the right)

go to your control panel (CP) and then "edit your signature" and paste the code at the bottom (or top) of your editable signature info.

Save and that should do it.

If you don't like this font or color or words - I'll fix it.

The code generator is SPARKLEE.com if you'd rather design your own.

(I have to work on my breads now - be back later today)

I love this Elayne but could you change it to bunny banster insteaqdk of banster bunnies or what does everyone else think????:? which way do you prefer?

I wish I knew how to do the poll we could vote. Jump in there if you know how to do it!

Hi Everyone,

I joined this site a week ago and mostly read, I haven't posted many comments. But I'm hoping to be an April Bandster too. So, far, my insurance company has responded quickly to everything, but now I'm waiting to get in to a consultation with the surgeon and April 6 is his first available appt for that.

Hopefully once we meet, things will move quickly. March is dragging for me...

I'm so happy for those of you that have your surgeries scheduled! I'd love to chat with anyone that is getting close, so I'll know what to expect.

Thanks!

I talked to the surgeon's office today and found out I am officially approved by my insurance, and I scheduled surgery for April 1st, which seems VERY close!! :) It is just shy of a year that I started talking with my primary doc about this option, and up until today it seemed that it would never actually happen! but it is and I am excited. I first met with the surgeon's office in October, and since then I have lost 25 lbs, and I am so excited to see the scale continue to go down!

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
