I hope that is true OTR but to me and a lot of other people on here it seems like premium = paying. Since it has not been clarified that is the way it comes across.

Yes I'm sure if you'd like a premium membership the will be a fee. However if you chose not to subscribe to premium you would still have full access to the forum just not the premium features. In all likelihood standard membership(free) would not change much from what you experience now.

Can we at least bring back the right bottom corner chat room for people on the website. And just a thought change the color of the site every once in a while.

I think when Alex said he was going to "fix that in the morning" he was talking about the chat problems...

This site is not a public service. Someone has to pay for it. You want extra features? Well it costs. Do people really expect the site owners to do this out of the goodness of their hearts regardless of the impact on their pockets?

This is how the world works.

It is a public site doing something to assist people therefore it acts as a public service. Not extra features because the chat is already included just saying.

Being a website that is openly accessible to the public does not automatically create a public service. Having site owners who want to create something of benefit to people does not automatically require those owners to be philanthropic.

You appear to see your right to have this service as being greater than their right to at least cover costs. Do you know what it costs to operate and host a site like this? Particularly with features such as photo uploads and chat?

I suggest that if you want a free site for sleeve recipients with all the bells and whistles that you seek here, then start one for yourself. Out of your own financial and intellectual reserves. You think others should have it for free? Then first ask yourself whether you would give it for free.

      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.

        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!
