Newbe - New to the site - 10 days and counting - any words of wisdom.

I can't figure out how to post to even introduce myself. I can't find any instructions about this.

That's what my hubby calls me when he's talking to the dogs, DaMama. Hi there! Banded words to live by are chew, chew, chew. Don't eat big bites, don't eat fast and don't swallow anything that's not mushy. Good luck and welcome to the fam.

Why is my name showing up twice? How do I change that?

**Wave** to DaMama. Welcome to the site!!

Welcome to Peggy as well!

To change your custom title (the 2nd name):

1. Go up to the user menu (up top, blue bar)

2. On the left where it says "User CP"

3. Click on that

4. In the user CP, click on: "Edit Profile" (3rd in the list on the left)

5. A little down the page, there's a box called the "Custom User Title". Clear it out, or click on the Reset box. Either should get rid of the 2nd line. Or you can put something clever in there (I'm not clever, lol, so mine's blank).

To create a post, when you're on a forum's "home" page... the page showing all the topics that are going: top left, just under the blue menu bar, is a button "New Thread". Click on it & you're on the way.

Most people go to the "Introductions" forum to start, but you don't have to, we'll wave at you no matter where you're at!

Good luck! If you need any help, feel free to PM (private message) me.

** Hugs & welcome to the journey!! **

Welcome! I'm only a week out from surgery, and my only advice (since I don't know much yet) is to remember that however you feel on days 3-4, it WILL get better!!!

Welcome to LBT DaMaMa & Peggy! You'll love this site - so much information and everybody is supportive. Snoop around and you'll catch on quickly to how it works.

Janet, you're so helpful! You and DH are a great addition to LBT.

Thanks Anne! Ya'll made it easy to jump in!

Hehe, cute name. Like DeLarla, my DH also calls me "DaMama" when talking to the dogs. Ok, to be honest - when we baby talk the dogs everything is pluralized, so I'm actually "DaMamas".

Peggy - it's pretty self-explanatory once you figure out some basics. Post starts a new message, reply tacks a message on to something else.

Welcome! Nice to meet y'all!!!

Welcome to LBT! Glad to have you aboard!
