Weight loss ticker



Recommended Posts

Sorry this question is kind of for IT help lol...hopefully I'm not the only one!

How do I get the weight loss ticker on my profile/edit my profile in any way? I want to add information. I like having all my stats where I can see them and think it's helpful for pre-op people to see how the post-opers are doing (it was for me and still is)!

Just go to Top Right, click on your name, then click on Tickers.

Choose the ticker you like, you will see instructions on top, once you select your ticker, save it and I think paste it into your Signature.

When you wish to update your weight loss, again go to top right, click on your name, then click on Your Surgery, and change your weight there. Save the change. It automatically updates on your ticker then.

Good luck and have fun with all the different styles and backgrounds you can choose from :)

After I go to the top right and click on my name, I just get whatever generic profile I originally made. Ticker isn't an option and it doesn't allow me to edit anything. I feel illiterate lol

Can you find "My Surgery" ? Perhaps once you fill in your height, current weight, goal weight, surgery weight etc, and Save it, perhaps then the Ticker option will appear?

If you are still having issues, perhaps post it in the IT/technical section, way down past all the forums.

Good luck!

I don't think it works from an APP - only the website! You're not illiterate! ????

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
