    Hiding threads

    Is there a way--or, if there isn't a way, would the site admins consider please maybe implementing a way--to set it so that a user can change a setting on an individual thread and never ever see it again? I don't mean "notifications off." I mean, even if people keep posting to it, it doesn't show up in the list of threads in the forum where it was posted or, ideally, in the trending boxes, either. I guess if someone tags a user inside a thread they've hidden, the user should probably get a notification(?), but if so, they should have the option to re-hide the thread if they want to. There have been a few thread titles that I've found annoying or really gross, that I wish I could have hidden from myself, but I couldn't figure out how. I just had to keep hoping people would stop posting to them. Eventually, for most of them, that's happened, but some of those threads Just. Won't. DIE. Please give me a way to make those threads seem dead to me, even if everyone else is enjoying them?

    Still uncomfortable

    Still not Fixed Up, ready to cater my Own Pity Party, I am losing much hopefulness about the whole Proceeding. And yesterday by accident? I never lost conciousness during the attempt, didn't hurt, had numbing medicine sprayed in the back of my throat that you gargle and then swollow down, stated I would be going to sleep-*- *well I laid there and watched on the monitor just like Dr Noria did. Asked the 2 other doctors, the nurse and most of all, Dr Noria? Did you guys realize I remained awake? Dr Noria got a look on her face like a child caught taking a swipe off the top of a freshly frosted cake and licking her fingers **Changed the subject, said" I dialated you to 10 mm", sounds good until you realise before first attempt I was at 9 mm.Progress IDK, do you? And I am at 7+weeks, a point where many, if not, all of my Surgery Day twins, Sleeve or RNY, are on purees and transitioning to soft and regular foods. Yeah ***I know we ALL make our journey toward final health, final size and weight goal, and a Bee-You-tee-full Future but OMG do I even have one? Someday I will be the scrawniest, sad-looking old broad seen, carting a thermos of bone broth or something similar. And watching the rest of the WLS community bouncing by happily. I expected hard, difficult but Mount Everest, Mount Denali even Kilimanjaro all in one, Nope didn't book for that?🎢🌆

    Also- keep in mind that as you lose weight, you’ll have to push harder/increase the intensity to hit your target heart. So yes- a heart rate monitor is essential! I think fit bits do this.. and I know the Apple Watch monitors heart rate during workouts.

    I think she's referring to the same option that is available on Facebook.

    I don't know if this is going to help you but did you ever read about "goals" - like what happens when you reach one? People need goals. Best is to be prepared in advance: "What will be my next big and challenging goal once I have reached this one?" Weird as it sounds but sometimes people fear reaching their goals because they fall into this big hole once they reached it. So what's your next big goal? It doesn't necessarily have to be fitness or health related but it should be big and challenging.

    Post Op Questions!

    This OP received advice from multiple posters, including me. I responded first, and I spent considerable time composing a lengthy reply with a lot of thought invested in it. True, no one needs to take our advice, but to completely dismiss the effort is just rude.
