LIVE tALK IN THE "CHAT ROOM" !



Recommended Posts

Hi Sleevers...

I would love to chat with "new friends" in the chat room. It is a great place to meet new people and discuss anything....LIVE.

I used to go to the Nutrisystem chat room where I've met forever friends struggling with wt loss. Though I didn't succeed with much wt loss on NS I did meet some really nice people and looked forward to seeing them again almost daily.

I wish this chat room could become another friendly place for newbies with pre-surg and post surg questions and suggestions...I have reached my goal but still love new ideas and advice. EVERYONE IS WELCOME !

Hope to see YOU in the chat room. The chat room can be found under the heading "Patients" at the top where the Forums, Resources, WLS Magazine, Photos are located. Click on Patients and a window will drop down with a list of different areas of interest with "chat room" on it.

Talk to you later in the CHAT ROOM !!!!!!!!!!!

I would love to chat with you but I can hardly read your posts! The script writing and color just do a number on my eyes! Maybe it's just because I only access this site on my cell, but it is blinding me! I've been putting off a visit to the optometrist for quite some time. I think I need to go ASAP!

Thank you, Bittersweet, for your feedback...I suppose I use a large font for myself, LOL, so I can read my own words. I will try to refrain from using the larger font and blue color.

I, might add, I am truly visually impaired or legally blind due to the damage from diabetes called Diabetic Retinopathy. I can't even drive anymore as I failed the driver's vision exam. Just explaining why I do what I do when writing on the computer. Also, in the chat room, the text can't be adjusted so that is really difficult to read.

May I suggest your going to an Opthalmologist as that doctor is a M.D. (Medical Doctor) vs an optometrist who gives you a cursory exam and sells you glasses. Which may be alll you need but good to have a doctor rule out any visual issues.

Good Luck and thank you for your feedback.

Hi Jenbaby...

I am from another generation so have no earthly idea where to find chat on a mobile. Hopefully, someone will read this post and can answer you OR ask the question on a forum...

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
