One thing I hate is the MARK AS READ choice is now at the very BOTTOM of the screen, kind of unhandy. I for one click the UNREAD button, scroll through and open the posts I want to read in additional tabs and then mark the entire forum read. That keep the message count fresh for the next time I visit.

Hello, may I recommend trying out the "View New Content" feature (located to the left of the Search bar at the top). This enables you to filter/search by content you have not yet read, content that is new since your last visit, or content posted in the last 24 hours, week, etc.

Also, the "Mark This Forum As Read" option is located to the left of the "Start New Topic" button located on the Forum Category pages when viewing the topics.

I hope this helps :smile1:

This is what I see at the end of each thread! Its driving me nuts, I tell ya! LOL

Hello, after taking a look at the screenshot you posted, the problem may be a bug related to the zoom being 125% (instead of 100%). May you test changing the zoom to 100% (bottom-right of browser option) and see if this fixes the problem?

Also, may you provide your browser version? I'm guessing Internet Explorer version 8? This can be displayed by clicking "Help" then "More About Internet Explorer".

Thank you :smile1:

I can see everything fine here at work. I will do that when I get home to see if that fixes the problem. Thanks,

Switched to 100% and it didn't work. I have Windows 7 Home Premium. Oh well, it doesn't happen when I reply to a thread, I can read everything then LOL.

You may try upgrading your browser to the latest version (Internet Explorer version 9). That may fix the issue :)

What is with these reputation points? I see the box over there showing who has the most points, but I don't get where these points even come from. I don't see anywhere on here where points are given.

Hello, the reputation points are earned when someone clicks to "Like This" button. Each "Like This" click by a single user earns 1 reputation point. This can be for posts in topics, photo comments, blogs, etc.

Thanks! Since i never post pictures, I guess I'll never get any points that way.

Not that it matters. At 2 1/2 years post op, I don't have a lot to post about, but I do love to help if anyone is struggling!

      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.
