LapBandTalk CHAT



Recommended Posts

Alex,

The chat room screen is larger now, but still some words can't be seen when somebody writes a long sentence. Is there someway that the screen can scroll to the right so can read the whole sentence?

Your office firewall is probably blocking port 51127 and 51128. We're looking into ways of getting around this.

There's no need for anybody to install or upgrade to Java any longer, our new solution only uses Flash on the front end.

Thanks! Please let us know if/when this gets fixed. :D Thank you so much for all your dedication to this cause! The support is priceless.

I appreciate the work, but the latest version of the chat software really isn't user friendly. There's plenty of features, but little room for the actual text. People using large fonts can quite literally fill the page with single sentence, and that makes it hard to follow conversations.

Just my $.02

I really liked the flashchat version we had a long time back.

Hi all,

At least you can access the chat rooms. I can't even get a room to open. I select chat and nothing comes up.

Anyway, I am recently banded (3 mos) an often I feel this really sore aching pain in my abdomen. It' been really bad the last two days but better today. I take a pain killer and it gets better. It's worse when I stand or rise up from bed suddenly. I had a vomiting espiode a few days ago and thougth maybe I was just sore. It feels like I've been doing sit ups.

Has anyone else ever had this problem?

Agrees that people who CAN access chat are lucky I am jonesing I havent been able to get in the last week. Hold a pillow next to your body when getting up or down that might help.

I havent had that problem.

I joined because there was a chat room in which I could discuss the lapband with people that had it. Now I had my surgery on Thursday and I have yet to be able to get to the chat room everytime i try it goes to the page showing how many in a chat and says Logging in now but never changes. I was really looking forward to going in to be able to talk with the fellow bandsters let them know I got my band and get support through this time of adjustment with my band.

I never had much luck on the chat either. Find a thread you really like and you will get lots of support from there. Our group was banded in Texarkana, TX. So we have a Texarkana bandsters thread. I started it. Long time ago. We love it because we are all under the same doc, rules, ect. Sometimes we get a little slack about posting (like me). But for the most part we try to keep it active, especially for the newbies like you. Hope you are feeling well. Where did you have your surgery? There our LOTS of threads, find one you like, you will enjoy it. I will help any way I can.

Yes I am feeling very well, no real problems to mention! I had my surgery at Memorial Hospital in Tampa Floirda. I am not one for the message boards, I love the chat.

I am one week out from having lap band and just wondering if there is any advice that I should have before doing the surgery.

      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!
