weight ticker

I was just wondering how does everyone update their weight loss tickers? Since I started this journey I have lost some weight and haven't had surgery yet but my pre-op has helped me to begin :) as I am sure it has everyone but it doesn't show on my ticker the pounds I have lost and I went and updated it well at least I thought I did. Any help would be appreciated thank you

Also why does *** show up when I am typing certain words like r e a d if I typed that together I get the *** instead of the word 

I made mine on Lilyslim and it is very easy to update if you have a smartphone or access to your email. I found it the easiest of all the other ones and it keeps track of what you started at, where your going, and how much you've lost. It works well with google accounts too :)

Good Luck :)

 thank you sooooo much I really appreciate it when people answer my questions very few do and I thank you for doing so. By the way I am having my surgery on Tuesday a bit nervous but excited at the same time thanks again :)

No Problem :) Your going to do great!! I was soo worried before surgery and I wasted a lot of energy being worried because I woke up and I felt amazing.. I was up walking 3 hours after I returned from recovery...
All the best for surgery and a Speedy recovery!
