Thinner Times Forum?



Recommended Posts

Hi all, first time posting, a vet GBS 8 years out, on track for a revision to DS. Last time around I was part of a forum called “Thinner Times”. I see it when I google it but unable to get in. Did this forum cease to exist?

Loving this forum but also wanted to check out a few others!

Thinner Times seems to have gone to a happier place not of this world.

It seems the Forums are closed, there is a Facebook group that appears to have a last post of 5 years ago.

Welcome to this forum which does seem to still exist with fair to midland activity levels.

Good luck,

Tek

wow - didn't know that. I only visited that one sporadically, but it's been years. Didn't realize it'd kicked the bucket.

The board closed a while ago. It never seemed to have much traffic.

With more and more people getting WLS I'd like to know where people are gathering. Considering the amount of people getting WLS places like BP or Reddit don't have much traffic as well.

Not likely all the WLS traffic but Facebook has many many WLS / bariatric groups.

I feel like forums are becoming a thing of the past, at least based on the traffic I’m seeing here and another forum I’m a part of obesityhelp. Thinner Times was THE place to be 8 years ago, it was hopping. This shift to fb groups makes me sad because I really prefer the forum format! I also limit my time on Facebook so it’s not as accessible for me.

      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!!

      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?
