Hi, guys! I just found this forum today. I got my phentermine from my local pharmacy and I start taking them tomorrow. I have my ticker down there, so you guys can see where I'm starting from. I'm excited to be here and to see how the pills work for me.

Hi Life and welcome! We are so glad to have you. Also, if you haven't started a journal, it is a great way to get track of your weight loss. Good luck and stay in touch.

Hi, Life; welcome to PhenForum! I love your picture and ticker. We are all glad to have you here.
Start a journal~YES~ which is one of the KEYS. It keeps us aware, makes us accountable, helps us as a support system and helps us teach our bodies new tricks!

Thank you for the welcome messages! I had started watching what I was eating about 5 days before I started taking the phentermine, and I've lost 9 pounds as of today! That's 9 pounds in one week!

ETA~Can anyone tell me how to update my weight on the ticker? I just can't figure it out...

Hiya Life!

You need to go into forums at the top, then click on Quick Links then Edit Profile. At the bottom of the page you can input your start weight, goal weight and current weight.

Pretty sure that should work but I'm fairly new here myself and not had the time between posting threads to get to grips with it all!

Good Luck and sorry if it doesn't work!

Well, that changed my weight on the side, but not on my ticker...hmm...we have to figure this out!

Thanks for trying to help, though!

ETA~~I did a little research on the site and it seems that the only way to update it is to make a new one every time. That's OK, I guess, but I wish it were a little easier.

Ah, on your ticker . . now that's a bit different. You need to go into Quick Links, Edit Signature and then where you see your current weight in the link simply change it to whatever it should be.

Give it go . . .
