Frequently Asked Questions



Recommended Posts

It would be nice if a FAQ thread could be highlighted in RED and listed at the top of the FORUM page that is alway viewable. This might reduce daily multiple repeated questions and help new and old members search common questions and topics.

Good suggestion. I would love to be able to view important topics without using the clumsy search feature.

We're launching the next iteration of VST in about 1-3 months. This idea was discussed previously but never went anywhere. I'd love to add this to the new site. How do you gals suggest we go about this ?

We're launching the next iteration of VST in about 4-6 weeks. This idea was discussed previously but never went anywhere. I'd love to add this to the new site. How do you gals suggest we go about this ?

I would love to see a tab at the very top of the page where we have Forum, Community, Photos. And have a tab that is labeled "frequent questions' and in the pull down menu: stalls, Hair loss, Vitamin ideas, Protein Shake debate. I don't know if this will help. Or if there is a tab for frequent questions and then it pulls up a search where you can enter your question easier and get answers faster from previous posts? But you kind of have that already. hmmmmm.

Somehow it is getting missed.

Thanks! And I am looking forward to the new version of VST!

Compiling that list is going to be a job. Any volunteers ? :D

COnative, you must have been reading my mind. It would also be nice to add to that Hospital/Airport "Shoutouts" and "I at the wrong THING!" This may help.

I wish. But I am unable to help at this time. I didn't realize that this is a volunteer based website. This might not be possible after all but it can sure be a fantasy! ;)

Thanks! Let's use this thread to compile a complete list. Once it's completed, I'll convert the info into an official FAQ.

That's great. I really hope this helps! Can I also suggest that if a new post is posted in the incorrect category that it be moved to correct category with a note like "Your post has been moved to "????" category.

Thanks!

We have the ability to do this but it's not used often. Currently the only time we do this is if we receive a report. In the near future I'd like to get the community more actively involved in moderation and organization of topics.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
