What's going on with the updates? They are sporadic at best these days.. It seems to be hit or miss if someone replies to a thread I'm participating in to get an notification about it.

This is happening to others not just me.

Me too! Sometimes I don't get notified and miss out on responding back. Sometimes I can't get on the site because it won't load..(but other sites load fine) And other problems too. Maybe they're trying to tell us something ;)

I have noticed the same things.

This forum has one of the best scrips I have ever seen. I like the reply box functionality and the way the whole thing is laid out. The traffic here is huge.

The only beef I have is with the slow loading ads but I understand that profit must be made.

Glitches happen. Many lines of code go into putting this stuff up. I have faith that they will get the bugs out.

I've gotten used to the endless crashing and having to write an extremely long and thought out post again to something short and not as meaningful because the app crashes after I press send!

But the new glitch of missing notifications especially to threads that are important to me is beyond frustrating...

Oh and if you guys are replying to this? I wouldn't know, because I'm not receiving updates to this thread also O_o

Yep.. I didn't get notified. I just happened to check back. It's not the ads that load slow for me.. The entire site will sometimes take 5 or more minutes to load... And then everything pops up. It's not my pc because it's just this site. Oh well

One thing I've noticed is the site works for crap on Internet Explorer. If you have Chrome or Firefox, you'll be much better off!

Hi all,

We've made some changes to the notifications. Please read this topic - you can revert back to the old method (instructions in that post) if you choose :-)

We're rolling out a major update to the site within a few weeks. It should address the issues some of our members have with many slow loading ads as well as most of the other issues stated above. Stay tuned.....

Can we request that the new offline notifications mode be backwards compatible? That is, the default behavior is the old notifications behavior where updates are available immediately. Members then have an option to use the new offline behavior if they set preferences to do so. This is a good way to introduce functionality in software. It is not good to shock and awe user with new functionality that they did not ask for especially if it breaks existing workflows that they depend on.

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
