Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Help a Dummy out please :)



Recommended Posts

Okay, I am pretty new here and I am figuring out some of the features of the forums. (To say I am NOT a techie would be the understatement of the year.)

A few times, after I post something, some random words are underlined in my post. I did not underline them myself, they were not underlined before I posted and I can't edit them to be not underlined after I post.

Maybe I am just losing my mind? 😰 ( Y'all could totally gaslight me right now and just tell me they aren't there, that you don't see anything! LOL!)

Is there somewhere on here that explains all of the features like reputation, linking etc.? Again not very tech savvy, so I might have just missed it.

Thanks for helping this CRaZy out!

(I did underline that one myself, lol!)

Thanks Maury for that statenent, it happens to us all and I don't have an explaination either. Maybe Ken S, our Tech Guru or Alex Brecher, our Bariatric Pal founder can explain.👈😜👉

The underlines indicate that the forum software has linked that word to items in the Bariatric Pal Store. Sometimes the links make sense, other times they are ridiculous.

Okay! Thanks everyone for both the help AND for not pretending I was the only one seeing those random underlines.

(Though that would have been totally funny!) :)

It's nothing you did, it's just the website. (:

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
