When I read interesting posts from interesting people, I always like to know more about them....so I go to the profile and it's amazing how often (I would say 8 or 9 times out of 10) that people here have not completed their profile or added photos....not trying to be nosy, but this is interesting stuff and I feel like we are a hui (group) of people with common interests, challenges and questions. This forum has helped me beyond my expectations (I was sleeved in Germany and have been living in Hawaii.....so not exactly convenient), plus I never had a nutritionist. So I come here for lots of information. Have 'friended' many but it's just nice to know where people started and see a photo. So just my little request....that and also, be sure you have your SIGNATURES turned on (if you are not seeing my signature and link to my blog below then that means you aren't seeing anyone's signature or ticker tapes....I had mine off unknowingly for a long time). Go to your name/settings/NewsFeed and check the box towards the bottom that says Display Signature Changes.

I love this community and just want to know more about people!

I've filled out my profile, but I haven't done "My story" yet. I wanted to wait until after my surgery.

LOL..I will do mine now!! Thanks for the input :D

Ha awesome. I have partially filled mine out but won't put up pics yet. Your all strangers :). I will eventually. Maybe after my surgery and I loose a little bit.

I plan to post progress pictures because I know how much it means to the pre-surgery ( like me) or freshly sleeved ( who may be going through a rough period and needs to see the "golden ring")....

Yes when I come on my phone if I look at someone's profile all you see is how long they have been a member, the amount of post they have, view their threads or post, and adding and private messaging, you can not view any of the information that is shown on the web based profiles.

I got a question ? How do you add those timeline things to your profile & before pics also?? Im clueless lol..

Go to your Profile and edit it. You will just have to play around with it to find everything.

I've been meaning to update mine, thanks for the reminder!

There are really no profiles when using the phone app, which is how I access 99% of the time.

I will update mine maybe over the weekend when I have more energy. Right now I feel just about ready to pass out in bed =) I have not posted pictures yet, and I doubt I will until I'm quite a bit further along. I don't have any real before pictures, just a progress picture a few weeks out. Anyway, I'll get it together and post some pics eventually when I'm down over 50 probably.

Unfortunately I haven't been able to find a way to post any pictures to my profile using my iPad or iPhone, & I'm too lazy to boot up my Mac.

I keep meaning to but never get around to it! I will tonight though :)
