Did bariatric pal change the format of the forums today?

This is going to take some getting used to. Not liking it so far.

I had the same thought.. hopefully they won't keep it like this long...it's pretty bad.

I mean the old forums was an absolute diasaster to navigate, it had subs and subs and subs which diluted the whole thing. Don't know if this is optimal, but it could be an improvement

Yeah, I actually really liked the broken down categories.

I prefer the old broken down categories as well....not liking it this way, it's harder to find posting categories - it's too general imo.

Thanks for everyone's feedback! We've added back most of the missing categories over the last 24 hours. The ones that weren't added back didn't have a topic posted to them in a long time. We only kept forums that have active and ongoing discussions. The majority of our members are on Mobile. Having many sub-forums isn't considered user-friendly these days. We're going to update the website Monday night to further optimize things on desktop and mobile. You should notice some new, fun and useful features available after that point. Soon after that, we are going to release a brand new mobile app which should make posting and use of the forums MUCH easier!

Hi there! It appears that you have a pretty complete profile - were you able to figure this out or do you still need assistance? If you do still need help, please let me know what you're having an issue with and we'll get it sorted out.

Thanks and Happy New Year!

      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.
