Alex Brecher 10,515 Posted November 3, 2013 Dear Member, Exciting new changes are coming to RNYTalk.com! In a few days, RNYTalk.com and the other Weight Loss Surgery Boards (WLSBoards) will join together and transition to BariatricPal.com! We’re excited to be leading the movement to support weight loss and health for all members of the weight loss surgery community! WLSBoards is celebrating its 10-year anniversary, and we are planning to make the next ten years even better. That’s why we’re combining the WLSBoards into a single, more powerful force. Each of us may choose different types of weight loss surgery as our own tools for weight loss, but ultimately, we all have the common goal of fighting obesity. BariatricPal.com will be better able to serve the weight loss surgery community by advocating for our rights as a unified voice. BariatricPal.com has the same great discussion forums as RNYTalk.com and all of the other social media options, such as blogs, private messages and photo galleries, which you know and love from RNYTalk.com. In addition to the Gastric Bypass forums that you’re used to, BariatricPal.com will have new forums for all of the weight loss surgeries. You’ll also love our all-new weight loss surgery resource section with information on choosing a weight loss surgery, the weight loss surgery diets, choosing a surgeon and so much more! Successful weight loss surgery is a big effort, and BariatricPal.com is designed to support your new healthy lifestyle. The community and information are always available on the site and using our new BariatricPal.com mobile apps. BariatricPal.com will let you track your diet and exercise to keep your weight loss and nutrition on track. Other ways to join the movement are to meet your BariatricPal.com friends in person, and to track your goals. The launch of BariatricPal.com is hassle-free for you. Your RNYTalk.com account and profile will automatically be transferred to BariatricPal.com. We’re very excited about leading the charge against obesity, and we hope you are, too! Stay tuned for more information about the changeover to BariatricPal.com! At the world’s largest weight loss surgery hangout, it’s cool to be a loser! 2 DLCoggin and Doing It 4 Them reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex Brecher 10,515 Posted November 3, 2013 There will be completely separated areas for each surgery on BariatricPal. The Gastric Bypass Forums, blogs and photos will be a spitting image of RNYTalk. There will be a general discussion forum where everyone can intermingle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
