2. New forums listing page that shows the number of topics/posts in each forum.

4. Big revamp of the OH Notifications system

You can now see notifications right from the OH header, by clicking the ‘Bell’ icon.
-
Notifications are updated to look prettier
-
Automatic “mark read” - you don’t have to manually mark them anymore!
-
Mobile friendly - works just as well on your phone screen
- By default, you will also receive emails when they get new notifications. The emails are made prettier and also contain a link to the preferences page to unsubscribe
5. Notification system integration for Messageboards

When a member replies to your post in the messageboards, it now triggers a direct notification in the OH notification system that you can see from the header.
-
The header notification contains the name of the thread and a preview of both your post and the reply.
-
The notification is clickable - it takes you to the post
-
The email will now get sent by the Notification system.
* If you have unsubscribed from notification emails, you WILL NOT get notified by email when an MB reply comes in.
* To access this option click the “person” icon to the far right
* Settings
* Contact preferences
* Check the box for Email from ObesityHelp Members

We've narrowed down the next ObesityHelp Conference #OH2015 to Chicago, Philadelphia, Los Angeles or Raleigh. Take this short survey and help us pick! We’ll be taking form submissions until December 30th. Once we’ve looked over the survey responses, a final location will be announced in January!
Do you have products that you use and recommend to your friends, family and other OH members? Are you looking for a protein shake, vitamin supplementation products or protein snacks and not sure what to buy?
Check out the OH Products Directory and leave reviews of what you think of the products plus assign star ratings so other members can make better decisions on what they purchase.
If you're going to purchase any products such as protein products, desserts, cereal, vitamin patches and supplements, check the OH Products Directory first to see what other members think on all sorts of products.
If there are products that you buy that aren't on the directory and you think they should be, let us know. Please add the manufacturer/company and the name of the product as a reply to this post. It would also be helpful if you added where you purchase the item, i.e., the name of the retailer or online (with the URL).
Here they are.....the Holidays. With the challenges of Holiday foods and get-togethers, cold temperatures making it difficult for exercise, along with other stressors, it can be difficult to stay on track.
Let's support each other in this thread by sharing any tips and strategies you use to stay on track with your healthy lifestyle.
(We will make this topic into an OH blog post with some of your helpful tips so we can share with more people and help the OH Community on their journey. OH Blog posts are shared on various social media outlets.)
We're celebrating the latest addition to ObesityHelp, the Product Directory, with a NEW GIVEAWAY.
We've partnered with PatchMD for this giveaway. PatchMD is an alternative for bariatric patients to receive vitamins and supplements through a patch.
There are lots of ways to score an entry. The more entries you have the greater chances of winning. Good luck!
