Not Liking The Changes



Recommended Posts

VerticalSleeve talked worked well. This new format sucks. I missed reading and posting but I hate that I can't see new content. Is that feature going to come back? It is time consuming to go to each folder and see what is new.

I agree - this new website configuration is not enjoyable. I usually manage to get over my irritation at big website overhauls in about a week, but the new format here is not good. Having to click all over the different topic headings to find where the people I follow most are participating is really not fun. And everything is so mixed together, it's confusing.

I just hope they get it together soon and fix this stuff up a bit more - it's ruined the site for me at this point. Oh and the constant flashing outside ads? Completely annoying.

Also, I would have gladly paid a monthly fee to keep VST how it was (without the extra new ads, etc), instead of this mess. I know not everyone would pay but I really liked the old site and really wish it was still the same. Not sure how much longer I'm going to stick around now.

You were filtering the forums and only had a few forums selected. I reset your filter and you should be good to go. You can do this yourself by playing around with the settings on the right hand sidebar once you click on New Content.

Alex - I like that you are pro active. I hope the site improves.

Thank you...it will! Most issues members have been experiencing will be quashed within the next few days. Change isn't easy and it's understandably disorienting for some. We really appreciate everyones patience.

I wonder how many others don't know about the filters. I didn't know I could drill down to specific forums. I just saw the check box options. I am seeing more content now that I went in and selected all lapband forums.

Once the dust settles down and everything is working 100%, we plan on sending an email to all members with a simple tutorial which will explain all the new features added to the site. At the moment we automatically filter your New Content to display only the forums based on the surgery selected in a members patient profile.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
