Hehe, sorry Kathy. I didn't think were ever my avatar stand in because I would have recognized you. But if so, I didn't mean YOU were a strange woman, just that it was a stranger taking my place.

Hey everyone, Can you all please confirm that this ONLY happens when using a mobile device (your phone or iPad) while viewing the site through the browser (not in the app)?

Yes, this only happens on my iPad while on the website, not the app. I prefer the full website because you can see tickers, profiles, etc that you can't see on the app.

But I did download the app and started using It though, because the other thing the full site does is cause Safari to freeze. When I'm typing a reply, it becomes very slow, what appears on the screen is delayed and it often freezes up completely and I have to shut down safari. And of course I lose all of my text. It only happens when I do a direct "reply to this topic" It doesn't happen when I'm editing a post or if I choose More Reply Options and type there. (Like I'm doing now)

I thought it was an IOS or Safari issue and spent many hours on the phone with Apple. I even reset my iPad to factory settings and reinstalled the operating system and all apps. Still didn't fix it. And BP is the only site that makes safari freeze. No other websites or apps makes the iPad freeze. Just FYI.

@@Kindle Thanks for the reply :-) I'll be looking into this further and once I apply some changes, I'll update the thread here for additional feedback.

One additional thing - I'm assuming you're logged in when this is happening, correct? If so, can you please attempt to logout to see if the issue remains while NOT logged in?

Ok, so I did what you suggested, and the image problems are the same whether I'm logged in or not. But for this experiment, it wasn't my avatar that was wrong, it was Blerdgirl's. The "Big book" image was showing as her avatar. And then just a few posts down, her actual avatar was showing up in random spots within proudgrammy's post. I logged out and it was the same. Logged back in, still the same.

      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.
