Increasing the size of Topics with No Reply



Recommended Posts

Hi Alex, Randy here. Can the section Topics with No Reply be increased in size in the next BariatricPal update? I see that some questions asked by newbies and others never get answered. I know for myself I wait to say anything because a subject matter expert is best. But there are times when that question gets dropped off the radar. This way If we see something that's been on the board a while it has a good chance to be answered by someone. The change could bring more people into the forums and prevent any negative feeling. Thanks for looking into this and a big thanks for what you're doing for us.

Being quite a newbie myself I think that would be a huge benefit for them and for the site. There have been many forums, not mentioning any names about WLS and I feel like I am getting ignored and no sense bothering with them anymore.

This forum is so great because of quick replies that having a separate section for them could make it even more interesting for newbies like myself.

I hope Alex likes this idea!

Great suggestion! This should be in effect within the next hour or so. Please PM me if you don't see the change on your end.

      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.
