LIVE tALK IN THE "CHAT ROOM" !



Recommended Posts

Hi Sleevers...

I would love to chat with "new friends" in the chat room. It is a great place to meet new people and discuss anything....LIVE.

I used to go to the Nutrisystem chat room where I've met forever friends struggling with wt loss. Though I didn't succeed with much wt loss on NS I did meet some really nice people and looked forward to seeing them again almost daily.

I wish this chat room could become another friendly place for newbies with pre-surg and post surg questions and suggestions...I have reached my goal but still love new ideas and advice. EVERYONE IS WELCOME !

Hope to see YOU in the chat room. The chat room can be found under the heading "Patients" at the top where the Forums, Resources, WLS Magazine, Photos are located. Click on Patients and a window will drop down with a list of different areas of interest with "chat room" on it.

Talk to you later in the CHAT ROOM !!!!!!!!!!!

I would love to chat with you but I can hardly read your posts! The script writing and color just do a number on my eyes! Maybe it's just because I only access this site on my cell, but it is blinding me! I've been putting off a visit to the optometrist for quite some time. I think I need to go ASAP!

Thank you, Bittersweet, for your feedback...I suppose I use a large font for myself, LOL, so I can read my own words. I will try to refrain from using the larger font and blue color.

I, might add, I am truly visually impaired or legally blind due to the damage from diabetes called Diabetic Retinopathy. I can't even drive anymore as I failed the driver's vision exam. Just explaining why I do what I do when writing on the computer. Also, in the chat room, the text can't be adjusted so that is really difficult to read.

May I suggest your going to an Opthalmologist as that doctor is a M.D. (Medical Doctor) vs an optometrist who gives you a cursory exam and sells you glasses. Which may be alll you need but good to have a doctor rule out any visual issues.

Good Luck and thank you for your feedback.

Hi Jenbaby...

I am from another generation so have no earthly idea where to find chat on a mobile. Hopefully, someone will read this post and can answer you OR ask the question on a forum...

      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.
