The cursive font makes me nuts.

:P

It's next to impossible to read on my iPad and I know I'm missing valuable input from our members who use this pretty script.

Maybe I'm old, perhaps I need glasses, most likely I'm just crotchety, but I wish it wasn't an option. Argh!

Make an old girl happy and pick another font. Please?

Add me To the tally for having to skip (possibly important) posts because of the annoying cursive font.

Agree! Can't read it all.

I'm not annoyed by it. I, like many others, just can't read the posts. It must be more of a problem for the person posting.

No idea it is called "cursive" font. Presume we are all talking about the same thing, the pink squiggly font?

Yes, the one that looks like script, not print.

Don't get me wrong! I think everyone should learn to write in cursive and read it, I just can't read the itty bitty computer font here on these forums and I tend to skip those posts.

I taught my kids handwriting because the schools didn't. They need to be able to sign their names, right?

      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.
