when i push this button , follow this topic- i was expecting to be "alerted" or something when this topic was replied to (meaning that i made a comment to a specific post)

am i mistaken? otherwise, what does this "button" mean?

thanx

When you "follow" a topic it adds the thread to your subscribed threads section. I'm not sure how that is shown on pc but it's pretty handy on the iPad.

I have assumed that i would receive replies to the ones that i push "follow." This is a great question. :)

One feature of the site is that it automatically "follows"/"subscribes" you to any thread that you participate in. If you want to "follow" a thread that you didn't post in then click follow and it will add it to your "new content" tab.

Sorry I didn't explain it better. I had to open the forum in safari and play with it a minute to understand it better.

If you want email alerts to threads or certain things, you have to change it in your settings. I get emails only when someone "likes" one of my posts. I turned off all the other email alerts because I was getting too many.

To reply on an iPad simply touch the icon in the top right corner of he screen and a drop down menu will appear with th this option

To reply with a quote, there is a down arrow to in the right upper corner of he post you want to quote that will open those options

Also the same arrow on your post will allow you to edit your post.

      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?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
