It kept doing it to me yesterday until I hurried up and clicked a link on the lapband site and it quit, hasn't done it since.... but weird, nonetheless.

I didn't know if it was the site or my computer.

It was the site, there were 2 posts that were hacking.

Yep, I saw it!

LBT didnt do anything funny when I logged on - but I did see a crazy looking thread title.

*rolling my eyes*

oh brother... Alex, please come to our rescue!

I couldn't get on at all this morning. Keep showing www.lapbandtalk.com/hacked and then went to what I thoughtwas a German Site.

I have a good (well I thought so) firewall and since I use a router that acts as additional protection...But still had this trouble.

Came on this afternoon and all was normal.

Hmmm, I seen the hack thread. It was empty (no posts) when I seen it, I just hit back button and ddn't click anything. I figured it would be deleted.

I didn't notice anything weird about the site though, But I do have a firewall maybe thats why

It happened to me, some kinda hack guy with no teeth, or very few. What does this mean? Can they see what we are doing? I am freaking out!

They can only access us through LBT, yes it's quite annoying but it's not high tech.

From what I can tell ~ as long as we click on NEW POST, then we seem to stay safe.

Is it possible to find out WHO is at the bottom of this whole issue??? I realize there is always some risk when in cyberspace but yikes... this is pretty freaky for a support group site!

I'm sure that Alex could find out because all of the hackers come up listed as new members. I would assume (I'm not a techie) that they could then ban their IP address. It's kind of sad that someone would do that to a support site since the past few days have been so nice.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
