How to Search This Site (Or any site) 

1) Go to http://www.google.com and click the "Advanced Search" link
2) Enter the words or phrases for which you are searching, e.g., chewable vitamin
3) Decide which OH forum or forums you want to search. Go to the forum(s) and copy the URLs.
For example:
(Duodenal Switch Forum) http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/DS/
(LapBand Forum) http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/lapband/
(RNY Forum) http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/rny/
(Ontario Forum) http://www.obesityhelp.com/forums/ON/
4) Enter the URL(s) in the field labelled, "Search within site or domain". Separate URLs by a comma.
5) Click the "Advanced Search" button. You will only see results from the OH forum(s) you specify.

Tips:
To search the entire OH site (every forum), just enter http://www.obesityhelp.com as the URL

Want to see ALL posts by a person (as opposed to only the Latests posts within the current forum)?
Search for their username and their location (found below their avatar). If you just specify their username, you will get their posts as well as all posts ABOUT them. (Some people are talked about more than they actually post!)
