Need to bring back the ability to have a signature! I like having it so I don't have to explain everything, my surgery, starting weight, current weight ect... apparently the update wiped out that ability. Also I have no way to update my profile using the app? But awesome app!

This app looks like it would be helpful, however I can't register. I get a pop up that says "you are not logged in or you don't have permission to do this action". There isn't a faq page to help either.

It's very informative and pretty easy to navigate. I was able to search for topics of interest and start new threads with ease. Right now, I'm a bit obsessed with reading and checking people's responses to all my posts.

I wish that the posts were more recent. Maybe updated more frequently. Nice place to get feedback about Bariatric surgery from someone that is experiencing what you are or wander the same thing about stuff

My only real complaint is that I can't access member statuses on the app, only the website. I can't update my status our read anyone else's or comments. That add would make it awesome.

The app itself and the idea behind it is good. However it needs to be user friendly the forums are all over the place. What is with the points system anyways. The vips need to back off what is up with that anyways do you get paid for posting so many times? The vips are super aggressive and very mean to the new comers. So that tells me that all the strict rules the app has are not even being enforced. Plus some of the forums are super dead and old. There is no way to change screen names either.

Best place to find answers to weight loss or weight loss surgery, is going directly to people who have had it or about to have it. Layout I don't like but overall it has been informative.

The surgery just starts u off in a good path. I did mine in 1992 brave one but it was done at hersey medical.l later had been operated by Dr Patrick in danville.he did a lot of cleaning up adhesions. Now after losing 200 lbs .im back for a blocked at the opening of my pouch. C it never ends. U just have to want it and never want to eat a good real meal again. Those where the days. My life didn't change because of my weight..If ur happy and healthy and love food. THINK. . Then surgery too remove all that ugly loose skin..
