I keep meaning to ask this at the meetings but forgot every blessed time tonight's meeting will probably be no exception) so I thought that I'd throw it out here on the board. If they can put all different nutritional supplements, vitamin and otherwise, into capsules, then why can't they put protein into capsules? I sm struggling to get my daily protein in and can't seem to stomach any of the liquid supplements or even the powdered ones. Any answers/suggestions would be gratefully appreciated. Mary

There is an awesome support group in Clovis. I used to live there, now I live in Alamogordo, which has no support group. They meet the second Thursday of the month at the Java Loft at about 6 or 6:30 pm. They are having a meeting this Saturday (4/22) at 6:00 at the Java Loft. I am visiting them. I am having my gall bladder out Monday (4/24). Most of the girls had Dr. Frezza. I did as well. My surgery was 11/14/05. You should stop by if you can make it. Good luck and welcome aboard!-Val Cline

Be advised that tonight (4/18) between 8-9 PST the site will be down for forum updates. It should not be longer than an hour, but might take more time. This is to help in the upgrades. Thanks for your understanding in making these critical changes.

Hi Everyone :wave:

Over the weekend Obesityhelp had an Easter egg hunt. Those who missed it or never did find the egg, I'm going to tell you what it led to. We have been working hard to bring a more feature-rich experience to all our dedicated members and are pleased to announce that the BETA version is publicly available for you to browse and use! Keep in mind the site is not 100% complete, which means we are still adding and changing things. This rollout focuses around implementing a new navigation, customizable homepage, bookmarks and a few other neat items that we know you will enjoy; however, our job is not complete. We are also in the process of adding more requested features to the site including: a new profile system, blogs, photo albums, private messaging, and much, much more. Stay tuned for more updates on these specific items.

In the next few days there will be some changes to the message boards. We will be converting the boards to our new system, which you can see in action now in the Emotional Eating and Magazine forum. We are going to start with the main message board and work our way through all the boards. Some features in the new boards include: the ability to edit your own posts, delete a post, have signature lines, and font selections.

Check out the BETA site here:

We are anticipating the full launch of the site sometime next week, so one day you will come to the site and it's going to be totally different, so make sure you check out the beta site and familiarize yourself with it now :jump:

Moving forward to better things!

Shhhhhh....Obesityhelp has a secret! Did you know somewhere on our site is an Easter egg? :gossip: If you are able to find it click on it, but don't tell anyone! It's a secret! If you find that egg let me know here, and tell me what do you think of what's on the other side!

Good luck and happy searching, OH is a LARGE site!

Have a wonderful weekend!! :jump:
