I have searched the FAQ and gone through all the profile options, and I can't seem to figure out how to upload my pic as my avatar. Can anyone help?

First, your pic has to be 50x50 pixels, which is teeny. Then, you have to save it to your hard drive, then you have to go to the top of the page and click on 'User CP'(Control Panel), to the left you will see an option to edit avatar. If you have a photo with a clear faceshot and need some help in resizing it, some of us here will be glad to help!

I am also unable to customize my avatar. I don't have an option to browse/upload my own image, only to select from the standard ones. I have uploaded my image onto my profile, but not for my avatar which I would love to do... :cross-eye :cross-eyeI would also like to know how to change the little message under my name next to the avatar.

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 getting ready to email Alex and let him know the problems.

Woo Hoo! There you are Betty! Glad to see the custom avatar buttons are back on board. I was worried that I'd never get to update my photo. :D Thanks so much Alex, for fixing all the bugs and making this such a beautiful site! :Bunny

      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.
