Is there a possibility of adding signatures? Maybe we could generate tickers elsewhere and paste them into a signature line for MFP. It would be nice to mark our progress so newcomers would know who's had some experience with the program.

I found a ticker site on MFP, but I have not seen my ticker pop up. I am going to test it here:

Yay! This is kind of cool....Not happy that the NS discussion boards are going away but am very happy someone knew to start up something here! I was TERRIFICT on NS. I have been using MFP for a while now but never paid attention to the groups or community before. Hopefully this will work for us NSers.

I don't think this site offers signature other than our names on the left side under the pictures. You can add signatures from other sites like these glitter ones. However I believe it has to be added each time you do a post. To me it isn't worth the time. The tickers are on your profile page once you check in with your first weight loss.

Thanks to all for posting on NS about other options. While I'm didn't blog much I did follow everyone daily! I was Ziggy_Zag on NS. Have lost 32 pounds so I was clearly motivated by reading about everyone! On this site I am 24AMD. Will need to learn this site but at least I found you!

Jserv I'm here!!! Yay!

Glad to see so many of you made it over here and looks like some new ones joined us as well. That is wonderful. Welcome to you all! I have been here since 2012 and have found many wonderful groups and postings. So please explore the main forum and I am sure you will find other threads you will love. Weekly I go to the success stories as these are true success stories, not just weekly victories. There are various ways people are losing weight so the successes may not be NS related but still are inspiration. For example Stogie40's stories and pictures are a true inspiration to me. I have to lose 300 pounds also and HE DID IT! Take a look over there.

Is anyone a stock watcher?? I wanna see how this *improvement* affects NutriSystem's bottom line.

Glad to see so many familiar faces, and hoping to find some new friends. I decided to be a bit more mysterious on MFP and will be Daniq from now on...those who know me from NS know me as deblynnk

I like that before you open the group post it tells you how many new posts there are since you were last in.

This system is very handy. I like it a lot. Good to see so many good people from NS. Now time to recognize all the new usernames.

Tickers no longer show automatically on posts, even if you set your settings to do so. They used to, but since they overhauled the forums last year it went away. The only way to do it currently is to copy your ticker's BBCode in every post. Hopefully MFP will make them auto again.

Hey everybody, so glad to find this site:) I was having trouble figuring out how to sign up for the group but I finally got it! I was Dodi on the NS site, my real name is Doris Silver, and have been on NS since Feb 1, 2015. While I am sad to have the Blogs and discussion boards go away, I am grateful to find a group so that I can continue to feel connected:)

And it brings you to the first unread post!

I wrote a consumer review about NS, and gave them a 3 out of 5 stars. I said (and truly believe) that they handled the rollout of their business change very poorly, and very disrespectfully to their customers. I suggested they change their name to NutriFood because they are now, just a vendor for home-delivered-portion-controlled food.

Now, that is a very valuable service! But it is different than what they used to be, and different than what they still claim to be. I think they need to stop pretending that that food plus a non-functioning lame app constitutes a 'system.' I'll use up my NS gift cards and see how things go.

I didn't even realize that! Another plus! Wish they had where you could like the post in the group thread.

But, everyone, consider your posts "liked"!

Welcome Dodi so glad you made it here. By the way this site also has blogs so you can read and post a blog as well. I started mine back in 2012 but since June of 2014 I didn't update it as I was very happy with the blog over at NS. However I copied my NS blog and plan to add it to the MFP blog.

I think it is great that we can hit the like on the news feed portion but also wish we could do it on the group threads. Oh well if enough suggest it-it may happen.


BY the way I saved this one onto my computer and clicked on attach image. But I am not happy with the way it came out. Oh well I tried.

Roger that is what I did. Then saved it to my computer and used as an attachment and that is how it came out with the e cut off and the title of the picture I used and all that extra blue. .
