Chat Room



Recommended Posts

Does anyone use the chat room? I see it yet when I go in I am the only one there. Is it only available during certain hours? I didn't see it last night.

There's a chat room? Maybe it's because nobody knows about it or how to access it. How do you access it anyway?

If you click on Patients and in the drop down you will see chat.

We had a chat room then it was removed and and about a month ago it was announced as back. At the time you bad to get there via the link(no button) so most people don't know how to access it. I will look around for the button as I know there are people who want to use it.

Yeah there is nobody in there. I keep going in at different times but I don't think anyone knows about it or they don't like to chat.

@@Alex Brecher people still can't find the button for chat! I know that people want to use it, but we need easier access.

I am not much into chatting but I know that people used to announce a time and people did use the chat function previously.

The link to the chat room can be found in the top site navigation bar under PATIENTS:

As well as in the footer of our site:

I didn't know that the chat room was an option again.

I'm on vacation but when I get home, I'll make it a point to put up posts in the evenings when people like to chat. You'll have to take the time zone factor into consideration.

If anyone wants to use it, put up a post that says you would like to chat so it shows up in new posts, Then open another window and do what you want to do. You'll have to see if anyone comes in . the old chat room had a door bell that let you know someone saw your post, and came in to chat.

      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.
