Where are all the newbees???

Seems like our membership is getting smaller and smaller and is mostly us vets that keep hanging on.  With the new format are folks having more trouble finding us?  I don't ever go on any of the other boards anymore but maybe we should start posting every so often and at least letting folks know we are here, are happy with all surgery types and are the most friendly board in all of OH?

I know I would not have been successful without this wonderful group who supported me from day 1 of finding it.  Yes, there were some helpful folks on the RNY board also but my major support came from here and is still here.  And the major reason I stick around is you lovely ladies that have helped me in the past and forever and to pay it forward.

Any ideas, Ladies????

I post on the DS forum and I have a link to the LWs in my siggy.  Those that do post elsewhere should definitely put a link in their signatures if they haven't already done so.

I may be to tech challenged to figure out how to do that but I may try just going on some of the boards every so often and putting a notice about us.

I used to be a daily visitor for about a year and then life got very busy. When I returned, I looked quite some time to find this group (the one I latched onto the most before). The newer format doesn't reveal it well. I found it only by clicking a certain way. And then, I was confused because there are many groups that there appears to be membership for or at least that is how it comes across. Also, I need to participate more now that I re-found you guys:)

Congrats and welcome.  The LW board is a friendly place with a fair few RNYers.
