{{/* BP structured-data corrections, 2026-08-04. buildMetaTags() runs in Dispatcher\Front before the head renders, and includeJS serialises Output::i()->jsonLd at the end of body, so mutating the array here is what actually ships. This replaces what were core edits in system/Output/Output.php and therefore survives Invision upgrades. */}} {{/* 1. Core builds potentialAction with 'type' rather than '@type', which leaves the sitelinks SearchAction node untyped. */}} {{/* 3. If an app already published a BreadcrumbList, core's own serialisation of the display breadcrumbs is a second, conflicting one. The surgeons geo pages render breadcrumbs narrowest-first by design, so core's came out reversed. */}} {{/* Canonical and Open Graph fallbacks. An empty jsonLd on a rendered front page means buildMetaTags() never ran, which is how Output::error() renders. Treating that as "do not add a canonical" fails safe: the worst case is a page without a canonical, which is where we started. */}} Skip to content

    emmmie replied to gtracygilby's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
    I had my revision from Lapband to Sleeve on Aug 15th, 2012... I am still on disability now- I return to work on Sept 17th. I took a little extra time to get used to the new lifestyle.

    emmmie replied to emmmie's topic in Food and Nutrition
    Yes I am currently on soft foods- no problems at all actually. How about you? What are somethings you are eating?

  15. Hunger?

    emmmie replied to emmmie's topic in Food and Nutrition
    I guess I wouldn't.... I don't think I did... I think I'm just getting used to the sleeve.

  16. Hunger?

    emmmie replied to emmmie's topic in Food and Nutrition
    P.S. Someone in my support group said I could just be thirsty. Its very hard at this point decifer what my Sleeve is telling me.

  17. Hunger?

    emmmie posted a topic in Food and Nutrition
    I had my revision from Lap-band to the Sleeve on Aug 15th... My portions are 1/4 to 1/2 cup and I can't ever finish a 1/2 cup. I've read so many posts about people who can't eat or keep food down at this point, etc. It seems towards the end of the day I start feeling 'hungery"... anyone else expirence this? I dont know how it would be possible, but have I maybe stretched my pouch? -Emily
