The easiest way is to upload the picture to a photo hosting site such as photobucket.com

Once the pic is uploaded, copy the "DIRECT LINK" code.

Come back here, and on the toolbar of the message box by the B I font color choice, you'll see that little box. On my screen it's yellow background with 2 little mountain peaks that are grey. It's right next to the hyperlink globe.

When you click on that box, a scripted window will open, and you will paste that DIRECT LINK into that window. Hit OK, and the picture should appear in the message box.

If this doesn't work, let me know.

The other option is to upload the picture to photobucket.com or other photo hosting site. Then right click the mouse on the actual picture, hit COPY, then come here and paste it in the message box. I've found that this method does not always work so I stick with the first one.

Thanks so much:) So a pic has to be added for every message? Is there a way to have the photo there for every message. Standard? I guess what I meant was that your pic is near your name. How did you get it to do that?

Ok I found it. It was under USER CP at the top of the screen. I used the edit Avatar link...duh.... Sometimes it takes a little longer for me. :001_tt2:

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
