I don't know Leatha, Somebody (moderators) please tell us how do you upload a new avatar of yourself now or can you? Maybe were all stuck with our present avatars!!!

Scary thought...

The only thing I see is the profile picture, which I assume sits on the profile page, not the message pages. I'd try it, but I don't want to lose my avatar! :)

Ok ladies here is how to change your avatar PIC.

Click on the USER CP located at the top of page.

Then click on the Edit Avatar link located on the LEFT side of page Under the SETTINGS & OPTIONS box.

Scroll down the page past the cartoon avatars and you will see CUSTOM AVATARS.

In the box that says CUSTOM AVATARS FROM YOUR COMPUTER click on the browse box and find the pic you want to use for your new Avatar.

Then click Save changes.

VOILA' you are done.

Any problems give me a holler.

Penni,

I don't have anything but a bunch of page #s of cartoon avatars under the cartoons. And the save changes button.

Does your new page have the custom button?

Yeah I have the custom button directly under the page #s. Hmmm that is strange. AT the top of the Edit Avatar page what do you have?

Penni, I'm thinking you might have things that we don't because your a moderator now. Could that be the case? Because I have nothing under my page #'s. And I looked at all of the standard avatars looking for an avatar that says custom on it and seen none.

Maybe your in charge of custom avatars! Oh joy, Penni's gonna be BUSY!

Here is what I see when I click on the Edit Avatar link under the cartoon pages. I could not copy the entire page but here is the jest of what is there. I doubt I would be responsible for uploading or changing avatars for you guys. Might just be a glitch in the transfer of some data when the website went through the upload process. I will email Alex and let him know of the problems. Can you guys change your title under your name? I know of one other person that can't do that either. You guys might try to refresh your page and see if that helps?

Custom Avatar

If you have a custom avatar and want to keep it as it is, leave the fields below as they are.

Use Custom Avatar

You may upload a new custom image using the controls below. Either enter the URL to the image you wish to use, or use the upload control to upload an image directly from your own computer.

Enter Avatar URL:

Upload an Avatar From Your Computer:

Note: The maximum size of your custom image is 50 by 50 pixels or 19.5 KB (whichever is smaller).

Rebeccalee, how can you change your title? Where do you do that at?

I was looking to do that this morning and did'nt see where you can on my page.

None of this is dire emergency but would like to know for future references!

Thank you Penni you've been very helpful!

Go to the USER CP link Located at the top of page.

Click on the Edit Profile in the Left menu box under Settings & Options.

The second box that says OPTIONAL INFORMATION you should see CUSTOM USER TITLE that is where you can change the title to whatever you like.

Some people are not showing this option and some people are not showing the CUSTOM AVATAR option either.

I am have emailed Alex and let him know the problems.

When I seen this one of you I was green! With jealousy of course, You look so good with your hair pulled back like that, it remimded me of when I could do fun things with my hair...boo hoo, my hair is too short....maybe YOU can fix me up! We do live near each other you know. :)

Ain't she a doll? I just loved her! We'll all have to get together sometime, seriously.

Yes, Galveston sounds good to me...beach house, margarita, sunsets, sunrises, long walks on the beach as the tide rolls in, collecting sea shells, sitting around a camp fire roasting marshmellows, long talks and lots of girl friend time, it all sounds good to me.

      It's been 10 long years! Here is my VSG weight loss surgiversary update..

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL
