I agree that this is one of the most supportive and productive forums I have ever participated in. THere have been hiccups along the way but I think most of us try to be as positive and real as possible without being horses a*sses to eachother. There is occasional hot topics regarding doctors but all-in-all, I am very proud to be part of it. So welcome and enjoy!

I think you needed ticker help. This was posted by Lila24 on another thread I don't know how to quote it here so I will paste it in italics.

Hey Vicki,

I just did it, so I'll try not to forget any steps :-)

  • Hey Vicki,
    I just did it, so I'll try not to forget any steps :-)
    • First you have to go a ticker site ( I just picked mine randomly). For example, I went to http://www.tickerfactory.com.
    • Once you are there, you will create a profile for yourself where you will enter your current weight and your goal weight (some of them have different information you can add, like BMI).
    • Once you have created your profile, you'll choose your ticker and the counter (for example, I chose a blue bar, and duck for my counter--I think you can change these up as you feel like it). Once you have done that, the site will provide you the code for your ticker. I think I chose the HTML code

    After you create your code, you'll need to add it to your profile. To do this:

    • From the home page, click your profile name to open the drop-down list. Click "My Settings"
    • In the settings options, Click Profile > Change my Signature
    • In the signature area, paste the code that your ticker site provided you
    • It should display as your current signature

    hope that helps!

So sweet your message. Thank you a lot. Now I feel as a real member of this sleeve family, a true army toward life.

A branch of my family is american, from Altoona, PA, but I dont have any contact with them, only my mother did. And I also have some cousins in Virginia, and they have a company named NEXIUS. Greetings. Ricardo.

Your ticker is not working :)

Go back and reconfigure another one and then after it shows you what your ticker looks like on Ticker Factory scroll down and cut and paste the URL code. It will give you several codes for different types of boards and forums. Choose the one that starts with URL (i think) and use that code to cut and paste onto your signature screen on this board. After you hit save here it should show you in the box above it what your ticker looks like.

Good luck and welcome again.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
