Hi.. I found my way back. Feed is right this is like being lost at sea.. and searching to get back to family and friends.. and find a sense of normal. I have only been able to post from my pc.. and the view from my pc is not really good.. our tickers are missing and that looks strange. I started in the lap band section, but I went to update my patient profile and selected Sleeve and I think that will help. I was finally able to use my stored link on my blackberry to find the 5:2 forum.. and can see its not locked out.. anyone can post. There was a full day when we were not able to get in by a redirect from the vertical sleeve link. During that time, and I blame the site being down. I was OUTTA CONTROL!! I ate every piece of chocolate, cookie, candy, chip and crap I could get my hands on. As the site gets back to normal so will I. LOL!!

... I started in the lap band section, but I went to update my patient profile and selected Sleeve and I think that will help.... I will try that too!

I think more things are getting sorted each day. On the ipad I found all the threads I have participated in (tab next to current). What I have found though is that I have been unsubscibed from all these posts so don't get any indication when a post has a new message. What I have done is to go to each post individually, press the top right button and subscribe to the post again. Hope this can help someone/ anyone.

THANK YOU FYE for the link! Does anyone know how to change the wording under my photo...so it will say Sleeve instead of Band?

Thank you so much!!! I had been poking around in there but didn't "see" it because it came up blank, but when I clicked the little down arrow, that is when I saw the "choices" of surgery! YAY!

Good morning Vietnam! .. I mean VST... No... I mean bariatric pal... :P

We are still bariatric "pals" today right??

Sigh..

Well I'm glad you girls are finding your way back to the 5:2.

I too have bookmarked it because even though I have subscribe to it a million and one times, it insists on kicking me off.

Mornin! I have just realized that my many lifestyle changes (exercise, cooking and nature/birdwatching walks/kayaking...time on Berrie-PALS :P ...) have reduced/eliminated other things I used to do that are important to me! I'm not sure I have time in the day to do it all... am trying to figure out how to balance it all.... its driving me a little crazy! I realized I was feeling a little helpless and inept... and did a little self search to try and figure out where it was coming from, and I am just too damn busy... am overwhelmed, and stuff is dropping out that is important to me. Anyone else experiencing this?

Are we all back to normal? I haven't tried to send a pm. I haven't seen Globe around. I know she was really having trouble getting on VST at all anymore because of the security on the computer she uses in Afghanastan.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
