Countdown ticker



Recommended Posts

How do you add a count down ticker if surgery was actually in the past? When I try it gives an error along the lines of goal cannot be less than start. Maybe there needs to be a new ticker added for time since surgery perhaps?

I have the weight counter which works great, but noticed some people were using the surgery countdown to show how long it has been since surgery. That is the one it doesn't seem like you can add post surgery.

Seems like you can go in the past for the current month, but anything over than produces an error when it saves.

I don't have the surgey date ticker either once I had the procedure I deleted it! Could you maybe add the info as a signature like on Missy's post above??

Ohhh ok, that makes sense!

Perhaps you can add a blurb in your signature line saying when you had surgery? That's what I did.

I have to edit it every time and act like it is new but I do go by surgery date I think it also has bmi and another one to choose from but you will have to look at them , not sure right now , hope you get it also remember they are updating the site as I have had trouble with a few things my self.

You know, Alex is having a lot of updates done to the site and it's possible that the ticker you want is not available at this time? Blogs are down, picture gallery is down too.

Gary, thanks for reporting this bug. We will have this fixed once the site upgrade is completed.

      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.
