Why is it so hard to update my weight?



Recommended Posts

I can’t seem to find where to update my weight in this forum. I want to keep it fairly current but I can’t find it anywhere.

click on your user name. It should open a drop-down window. Select "My Tickers" and select "edit ticker. hit "continue" to get past the background and marker images. the third page should be where you change your weight. "save" the final page and you should be set!

Hmm that doesn’t work for me. It just opens my profile. No peep of tickers either.

if you are using a computer, just scroll down and look in the right hand column. You should see a space to update your weight at the very bottom.

I’m on an iPhone and it won’t let me change it anywhere.

Ohhhh, that explains it. I've heard many people here say they can't do stuff on their phones that they can on a computer.

I no longer use the app for this site. I simply open internet browser for my iPhone, so safari. There are two ways to update your weight in this site on safari.
1) scroll down all the way to almost the bottom and it will show how many pounds we’ve lost together. You can update it there.

2) Go to the top right and choose under the menu where it shows notifications... choose my surgery. That will take you to your surgery info and you will see a drop down. Choose my progress. You can update your weight there.

The app for BP on iOS is not user friendly. It’s very hard to use. Use safari. It’s much easier for us iPhone users.

      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.
