OK I must be stupid!

Well two things, I am happy to report that not only did I lose the 10# requirement before surgery but  I also lost another 3#. Ya!!!!! Secondly how the heck do I put one of those weight tracker things on here? I went to the site, filled out everything then it says to cut and paste it, where do I paste it to? Sorry to sound so stupid!!! Thanks in advance!

You paste the tracker info into your signature here on OH:
under My Account, choose the Message Board tab-- there is a space there to set a Signature-- add whatever wording you want then paste in the ticker code.

Congratulations on your pre op weight loss!-- and there really are no stupid questions-- feel free to ask away!

ok here I am again sounding stupid, I see 3 different things to cut and paste one is bbcode, one is HTML and the other is ezCode, which one do I cut and where "exactly" do I paste it, on the top part of the signature or w/in the box of signature and after pasting what should I see? All I see is the giberish, not the ticker I created?? I thought I knew a little bit about computers but guess not!! Hopefully I can figure this out, I think it's neat to get a visual little thing to see how everyone has been doing! 

Use the bb code.  paste it intop the box of the signature- you won't see the actual ticker there until you save it-- then when you post, if you check the 'include my signature' box, it will appear.  Then, when you go back to My Account- Message board, your 'current signature' will display, with the ticker as you created it.

Good for you losing 3 more than required!  Did you already share your surgery date?  There is an area in your profile where you can enter that too.

Yay!  Congratulations on the 13 lb weight loss.  I hope the remainder of your journey goes just as well.
