Yes it's there. On top in the blue line see it says lbt chat. It's cool. I know, no-one is ever in there...I go in and see people go in and out quick they never type anything...If you ever go in stay a few minutes because others check it out too and if you stay a few minutes maybe someone will talk. I will that's for sure.:clap2:

I've gone there several times and only once was someone else there to chat with. It's a shame it's not used more because truly it would be a great tool to help each other out. I even tried putting up a post stating I was in there just in case anyone wanted to chat. That was the one time when others came in. Maybe we'll have to do that again and see?

I think more people should check it out. It's easier then finding replies to your questions and comments. Plus you can talk to each other right away. Come on y'all chat, chat, chat. I keep myself signed in while I type other things so I can hear if anyone enters to chat with...try it please...it's cool to talk to everyone thru chat.

I was in the chat-room last night. There were two people on it, who both promptly disconnected upon my arrival.

Was it something I said? Do I emit strong net odors?:P

Hi Panioman...unfortunately its luck of the draw in there lately. I was lucky enough to get in there and there were like 12 people there but, only 4 of us talking. All of the sudden the other 8 blipped off the screen. I think people think they've logged out but in actuallity they are still there, then the system boots them. Keep trying, we'll all get the hang of this :P

Just went there and no one was there. :phanvan It was like that a few times I have gone. I guess most people just want to do the threads instead of getting into a conversation, maybe? I like doing chatrooms but this is also easy.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
