Time To Give Up On This Site?



Recommended Posts

I agree with everyone I miss RNY Talk ,here when I look up current threads I have to make sure they are Bariatric RNY so I stopped doing that and go to the RNY forum to make sure I am with my group! I understand it is all WL journey but if I have questions or concerns with my procedure then I want someone to reply that has had the RNY surgery. As I am sure someone that had VSG or lap band would be thinking why is she telling me how/ what to cope with this concern.

How are you doing? Everything go well Monday?

I don't know what's happened but our RNY forum seems to have died since the changeover. Hardly any new content being added these days or replies being made. I'm wondering if many people have just given up. I think I might have to do the same as it's just a shadow of the great site it was before :-(

I'm kinda sad about this site. I'm a sleeve to RNY revision so I had the sleeve site and the bypass site. But on my profile since I had the RNY latest it gives me only new content on the RNY so I can't see any of my friends or threads on the sleeve side...it's hard to lose all of your friends and threads...:(

  • nailsbyniki, you can still view all the forums, no matter what type of surgery you had. Just go to the top left of the page and use the drop down menu to choose sleeve plication (a stupid name that is not what everyone calls VSG. All your buds will still be accessible.

Wow, I finally found the website. I had surgery 10/29/13 and the first week post op the site was gone! I was real disappointed. I was looking up the RNY talk website that was put under my favorites and it was not pulling the new one up. So hopefully changing to bariatric pal website will make the difference. Glad to finally see some post! At work, when I see people doing bariatric appts I tell them about our forum. I'm proud of our group!

Sleeve Plication is a different (and the newest) bariatric surgery. Assuming you had the VSG you want to choose Gastric Sleeve Forums. Back in the days when I was teaching IT classes I used to tell my students "If you can see it, click on it!" It's a great way to quickly learn the navigation of the new site. You're gonna love the new you!!

      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!
