Hi all you April Bandsters! We have our own April '09 Forum here. This will be our 1st Master Thread to chat, share dates, diets, feelings, etc. When it starts getting too long (loads too slowly) we can start a 2nd and so on.

Sherry (Sissyh1006) has started a list with all our surgery dates, so she'll be along soon and you can give her updates.

If you want a "Bunny Bandsters - April '09" signature line (see below) then click HERE (feel free to change anything). On LBT go to 'User CP' (in the top banner) then down to 'Edit your Signature' (on the Left column). Now copy the PICTURE of the Bunny signature with the peep and paste it into the edit your signature box.

Can't wait to meet you all! -BG

Cool thanks!!

Hey you guys, I'm (hopefully) going to be banded on 04-06-09. I had a test come back bad and I have to take 8 pills a day for 14 days, retake the test, send it off and get it back on the 3rd of April, 3 days before my surgery. And if it comes back bad , he won't do the surgery. GOSH so many pills!! I have NEVER taken so many!! So anyway keep your fingers crossed eveything goes as planned!

Thanks fellow bunnies for doing this. I am almost done with my first day of liquids, not too bad, :thumbup:only 13 left till surgery. So excited...

Hey everybody! Thanks for posting here. I love the bunnies in the ticker and blinkie! I'm gonna have to get that in my siggie. I'm starting my liquid diet Monday. My lapband surgery is on April 7th! I'm nervous, but so excited.

Originally, I was to have had surgery on March 25th, but my doctor is going out of town so it was re-scheduled for April 8th! And I'm just as excited to be a part of the Bunnies!!! I start my liquid diet on Monday! I'm so ready for my new life!!!

Thanks BG for pulling everyone together in the one place! Looking forward to sharing experiences.

What kind of pills do you have to take Doodlebug? I hope that everything works out for you!!! What an anxiety provoking thing though - to not know if its going to happen or not! Hang in there!!

Same - I am really struggling. What are you eating? I have had 2 Optifast chocolate shakes VOMIT and 1x optifast chicken Soup (which I just read the back of the packet expired 2 weeks ago but I cannot be bothered taking them back!) but the soup was by far nicer and a bit more like "food" I am SO FREAKING excited bout my veges tonight - you could tell me I am having 10 Big Mac Burgers and I couldn't be more excited than I am right now! hahah.

Hi everyone,

Thanks, Bandgroupie for the easy way to do the peep banner...I tried on my own and couldn't figure it out! Thanks for the help!

Great idea to have us all come to one spot!
