I'm a little confused. If I see this thread does that mean I'm a VIP member? Glad to be here.

I see VIP under your name. So you must be one....lol

Awesome ! I use the iPhone app so I can't see whatever's under people's names, including mine.

We've been working on a new BP app which has better functionality and features (Tracking, video exercises, etc) It's coming along ok but taking a lot longer than I had hoped.

Check your credit card statement next month. Thank you for supporting such a worthy cause!

JK!

I provided VIP membership to members that have contributed to BP over the last year or so. It's the least I can do for all of you. If anyone wants a digital copy (Kindle, Nook or PDF) of any of my books, please just PM me and I'll be happy to provide them free of charge.

@@Alex Brecher Thanks! At first I wondered what that VIP was, and then I found this forum and thought it was a mistake. I seriously was going to check my credit card statement, thinking perhaps I signed up! Then I saw others also wondering, and thought it must be a "free trial"! So thank you for the exclusive access. I feel important

Good evening everyone I hope everyone day was stress free.

Thank you for this forum. I was one that was very active and left the boards due to the amount of negativity at certain times and unrealistic expectations of some. I came back because I am considering revision surgery due to gerd, hernia, and lack of weightloss post pregnancy. I am looking for others that have had revision surgery. I had my VSG done in Bogota, CB by an amazing team and had great follow up care. We are now back in the US and I will most likely have surgery with Dr. Halmi.

Nice to read and be included in this positive forum. Thank you positive posters!

After many years, I do understand some frustration with negative people or those that choose to not follow dr instructions..... Maybe some docs don't give out enough info and directions?

I got a 6 page handout in 2006, after outpatient banding w/ quick check up the following day,and I'll see you in 6 wks.

Anyway, glad to be here. Lots of good advice....and some yuks.
