Before picture views! ack!

Hi, I just signed up in March and my before picture shows that I have had 648 views! That's concerning to me! I see other's and they don't have near as many views. I don't want that many views! I can't find any settings to see if it's viewable in public out in internetland or not. I hope not! We are not making this journey public.

Does that seem like too many views to you or normal for this site?

    I am very careful of anything I post as it's all available for the world to see and read. We are so cozy here but it's important to remember we are in a fishbowl.

    oh well. It is what it is. They won't even recognize me soon enough anyway. Besides, we all have doppelgangers somewhere in the world, right?

a lot of people view the pics of posters but they are on this website, not out in cyber land. I looked at your profile and I didn't see any before or after pics. Do you have pics somewhere else?

I just viewed your pic, however I assure you, it was due to the curiosity associated with your post and not in a creepy/stalkerish sort of way! ;)

As stated previously, I think the only folks who can view your info/pics have to be members of this site.

You should be flattered so many folks want to see your pic! :D

Good luck on your journey!

I think it tally's your own views too. It is kinda creepy. I really wish there was a way to prevent coming up in a google search. Had to change my name just so others might not find me linked here. I really wish I understood the privacy settings here.

yep, I agree...I don't even have that stuff posted on Facebook... it's best to keep the private things private!

How do you post a thread? I am new from CO. Looking for some advice, support etc...for GB.

Just find the forum heading you want to post under, click on post new topic on the right hand side of the screen and post!

It's easy. :D
