GULP! I just tried clicking on the link that I posted just above in my previous post, and it takes you somewhere really weird! Not the tutorial. BUT if you copy the link and put it in your address bar at the top of the page, it DOES take you to the tutorial. Sorry about the hassle~!

Barbie,

I'm sorry I am just now seeing this post. All you need to do to get your ticker in your signature is do the following:

Go to tickerfactory.com or anywhere to create a ticker

go to your profile.

right side of screen there's a black button that says "Edit my profile"

left side of screen there's a list of options, click on "signature"

copy/paste your ticker code into the edit signature box

click on "save changes" at the bottom

You can also write anything in there with it, such as your surgeons name and surgery date if you like.

I hope this helps you!

:)

Thank You Kelly..Glad to be on the losers bench..just wish I could figure out this ticker tape thingy and all that other neat stuff you wrote..

I'm having sleeve surgery with Dr. Garcia on April 11. I'm so delighted to find topics on him. There wasn't much information on Obesityhelp.com. Thank you for sharing your experiences. I feel at peace with my decision to have him perform my procedure.

I have a question. How are supposed to swallow Vitamins if you cannot take in a lot of liquid at one time?

I was recommended to take a chewable or Gummy Vitamin...They do make both in adult formulas just read the labels...

Ok so I am new to the forum, and have been stalking you guys for a while...lol ! I am excited and nervous to take the leap into surgery. I have contacted Dr's and have all of the financial end squared away, but I am scared to make the final call to schedule the appointment. I know that you were all probably the same way at first also....right?

Here are my issues, I am not a high BMI, actually a 31, and peolpe always say that I don't look like I weigh 200lbs. But I have struggled with my weight for the past 10 years, and I think that my body has set this "limit" on my weight loss. I would rather do the surgery and be able to enjoy the rest of my life, than try every fad diet that comes along whlie I'm trying to tell myself that I'm happy.

I know that I'm generally healthy, I have never had any medical issues, and besides having my son 7 years ago, I have never had to go to the hospital. So I'm here watching all of your amazing success stories and getting the nerve to be amongst the losers, forever!

Thanks for listening to me ramble, but I needed to vent and I haven't told anybody else my plans...til now :)

Jaime

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
