Question For Alex



Recommended Posts

Please don't bother with tickers or your profile at this point. We're still working on both of those. I'll let everyone know once they're back to normal.

Okay - thanks Alex. I still cannot send a PM. I received one, but when I try & send, it gives me an error. It says that I have to put the full name of the recipient, but the name is already there?

What's the name ? Do they have special characters like ?

It worked! Now, how did you get your ticker back? Mine doesn't appear to be showing, and also, all of my profile info (weight, surgery date, etc.) seems to have dropped off.

My ticker isn't site generated so don't base fixing your tickers off mine.

Mine is actually a link pic pasted into my signature line that I just change as my weight changes.

Yes - I tried to PM Carolinagirl. She's got hearts at the beginning and end of her name.

This issue isn't at the top of our list but we most definitely will figure out the issue. In the interim, you can PM her here.

That didn't work, either.

I couldn't get that link to work either. Here's the error message I rec'd:

error4_zps3c48433c.jpg

I received the same error. It's her special characters. We're going to add it to our todo list and hopefully resolve it shortly.

We can temporarily remove the characters if she requests it.

Thanks for all your VERY hard work on everything, Alex. I know we complain about change and glitches, but the new site does look very nice and I can tell you put a ton of hard work into it.

Completely exit and restart the app. The private messaging issue should now be resolved.

I've never been a fan of change.. Fact I'm a pissy patty when it comes to this new change. BUT... I will be patient ... For awhile.

But the tech issue link repeatedly tells me "oops" ... Not a good sign :(

Oh.. I appreciate the return of my ticker, but one is probably sufficient. ;)

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
