Char:  welcome!  You will find this group of people a wealth of knowledge.  Don't be afraid to ask questions. Most of us have been where you are now and KNOW what you're going through.  best of luck and I hope you will come back often and join in our "family" activities!  Deb

Hi Char, You need to copy and paste the actual weight ticker you created not the html code.  Then your pretty ticker will show on your posts. Here is a link to our help section... http://www.obesityhelp.com/content/sitehelp.html Take care, KathyS Member Services

thank you...I think I fixed it! Not sure though! LOL  I am recovering from two recent hand/wrist surgeries that were work related, my most current one was 6/6/08 so I am off work right now....
