Well I am getting banded on April 7th! Anyone else? I'm excited and nervous, but know that the future is going to be terrific! I've got nutrition class this Thursday, pre-surgery admission stuff on the 11th, and start the liquid diet for 2 weeks starting on the 19th. Time is going to fly!

Does anyone remember where the post was about what to get/bring before the surgery?

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!

Sissy, if you want you can copy mine or make your own too. I like the colors of mine b/c they are springish and remind me of easter bunnies...LOL

That is cute with the date too.... WTG!

If I pass the pre-op tests, I will be getting banded on April 4. *crosses fingers* Much luck to us all!

Is it too late to vote against the bunny thing? *L*

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!

Hi everyone~

My surgery has been moved to April 22. I am now officially an April bandster. (I will change my siggy!). What is our name?

Welcome all new April Bandsters from a 2008 APRIL AVENGER bandster :scared2:

I fixed the banner in case anyone is interested

Well we never really had an official vote. It was tossed out there if anyone had any ideas and I think the only 2 we got were shamrockers and bunny bandsters. Some of us decieded that shamrockers was cool but we were not being banded in March and it did not fit so well, And then we just took the bunny bandsters and ran with it.
