Add Your Avatar

If you’re just getting started on your journey, it is a great idea to add a photo avatar early on in your journey. Not only will it help the community get to know you and share a little about your personality but it is also a great way to document changes in your journey. Remember to save all your avatars as you change them, they make really fun side by side comparisons!

Go into your “Settings"
