Did you know? How to get more replies from your posts....
Nothing can be more frustrating that reaching out with a question, concern and or looking for support and no one answers. Here are a couple of suggestions for getting more replies to your posts. Vets, your welcome to jump in here with your suggests too
*As you can imagine some questions have been asked and answered over and over again. Check out our FAQ section. You can find it under Resources, Weight Loss Surgery Questions and Answers.
*Do a search to see if your question has been asked and answered before. How to search?
*If you don't find an answer to your question post it on the forums.
*Post it on your surgery type forum. You are welcome to post it on the main forum but to reach out to those in the know, you want to reach out to those that have had the same procedure as you.
Duodenal Switch Forum (DS) Fobi Pouch Gastric Bypass Surgery Forum LAP-BAND Forum Mini Gastric Bypass Surgery Forum (MGB) Plastic Surgery Forum Realize Band Forum Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forum Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass Surgery Forum (RNY) Vertical Banded Gastroplasty Forum (VBG) Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy Forum (VSG) *Subject line is key - include key words so the community knows exactly what you need help with and the right people will respond. Instead of "Need Help" try "Need Help, VSG, Vitamins". *Always include surgery type, date of surgery and exactly what your question is with as much details as possible. If you are concerned about privacy issues you can always ask your question and once you get your replies you can go back and edit your post to remove the information you are concerned with. *There is a big difference in how we answer a question depending on the type of surgery and when you had the surgery. Happy Posting

Also - make your posts easy-to-read. Don't use weird font types, use a font size that's easy-to-read...and sorry, Kathy....don't use a colored font. All of these things make a post harder to read and lots of people just give up and move on.
Also, use paragraph breaks (as demonstrated here) to break up a post. It's especially helpful in making a longer post easier to get through.

So, I really appreciate this website and wish to be compliant with instructions for posting. I am trying to put my "ticker" in place...I did a search on the site and found a tutorial. Unfortunately, the drop downs and visuals for formatting have changed. Is there a current how-to for adding ticker instructs.
Thank you in advance for any assistance.
