Hi there. I am not able to add my surgeon on my profile. The option to do it gives me a box. I type his name in and save, but it doesn't work. Any suggestions?

Also, I have two "likes" on my profile. It is shown on a green bar on the top right side of the profile. What is this, and how to I see who has "liked" me?

Thanks,

Shannon

Hi Shannon,

What's your surgeons full name please ?

As you type, you should see names starting to appear. It works via auto complete. See the following example:

Are you on a desktop computer ?

The likes you see are when people like your post (like I just did to yours above.)

Does it make a difference if the surgeon's information is not up to date, or will the name appear anyway?

Yes, that worked. This time I started with his first name and not "Dr." lol

Thank you, as I had the same question, too.

Thanks Alex. I wasn't giving it enough time to auto fill because I didn't realize it would do that. Thanks very much!

      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.
