I am a little nervous about this. It is my first time ever participating on an online forum. I have learned so much on this site, and I finally decided I want to participate and throw my .02 cents in too. :thumbup:

I am thankful to have a place to go and get the support we all need! :tongue2:

I come here and read posts everyday. I have for weeks. I know how you feel because I just registered today, this is my very first post.

Glad you joined! :tongue2:

I keep looking, but I can't figure out how to add the ticker tape at the bottom of my signature for weight loss. Any clue?

http://www.TickerFactory.com/weight-loss/wXz163c/

1. click on someone's ticker - it will take you to the website to create yours.

2. click the box that says: "Create your own ticker"

3. click the "WEIGHT LOSS" or "EVENT" (your choice if you want to track the weight loss or count down to the surgery -- or count from the date you had surgery.) I am going to assume you clicked "WEIGHT LOSS" for the following steps.

4. click the ticker bar you wish to have as yours (there are 13 pages of designs to choose from - to see another page just click the page #) once you have decided - click "NEXT"

5. click the ticker slider you wish to have as yours (there are 7 pages of designs to chose from) once you decided - click "NEXT"

6. complete this page with your options - password; tracking by change of weight or showing actual weight and lbs lost; your target and starting weight; current weight and weight date; your height - click "NEXT"

7. highlight the code in the first box - starts with "[url=http://www.TickerFactory.com/weight-loss/..." copy it (right mouse click - copy)

8. goto your "EDIT SIGNATURE" on your lapbandtalk and paste it (right mouse click - paste)

9. preview signature -- then add spaces and additional content as you wish.

Let me know if you need more help -- or if you have questions regarding these instructions.

This is my first post on this site too!
