Hello -

I have the weight loss countdown ticker on my profile. I've noticed that some people have the tickers related to miles walked, etc.

I am soooo not computer savvy. Will someone tell me how to find those?

Thanks!

Grace

    ticker-factory.com has them, look at my ticker, I think the correct webaddress is on it.

    OK, so I guess I have one from a different website. :laugh:

    it really doesnt matter, its all about the calories u lose or intake, the amount of sugar that you are taking, whether your eating processed food or not so that it digest properly, so the way it works, for every 3500 cals u lose, thats one lb. of body fat... so if you exercise, and lose 500 cals, and ur goal is 1700 cals a day and u eat 1200, thats thats 500 u lose on your diet, and 500 you lose on ur exercise, so thats 1000, which is 1/3 of a lb.

    Here are directions I posted for a group challenge that I am going to be in in June... I hope they help!

    Here are the directions for the tickers....

    Go to www.tickerfactory.com
    Under the Weight loss / fitness heading click on the "Exercise and Fitness Ticker"
    Choose Your Ticker Ruler -- click Next
    Choose your Ticker Slider -- click next

    Then you set up your information to save the ticker...

    --Create a Pin (this will allow you to update the ticker throughout without having to make a new one each time!)
    --Units
    --Total Cumulative Value (when we start the challenge you click on the "+add" to put in today's minutes.miles and it will add it to your total)
    --Target (this is where you put how many minutes/miles you want to complete this month)
    --Message (title of what you are counting for)

    Click Next and it will give you the code to put into your signature....

    the bbcode is the one for message boards I do believe...

    if you look at the code the first sentence says url: www.tickerfactory.com/exercise/??????

    If you bookmark that first part (www.tickerfactor.com/exercise/?????) then you can go back and change the ticker without having to make a new one! Just don't forget the pin you made.

    I hope that all helps. I am not great with directions! :)

    Your ticker doesn't look complete to me...is something missing from it? You don't have a starting number or a quote on top or a goal. I don't think you finished it maybe?

    Hi. I think I figured it out! You just go back to the ticker website and sign in and enter your updated information.

    I made a mileage ticker last night for the June 100 mile challenge, then noticed that MFP states only their tickers are allowed on the site. I don't understand why MFP has this regulation, but I always see others with them....and I want one too!

    You walk/run/swim/jog whatever 100 miles in June. There's a thread that got started and we're starting June 1.

    My plan was just to get through 100 miles before the end of the summer, but I see your challenge!

    Ok I got one to work but do I have to put the code in every time I post a message? How do I get the ticker to show up on my profile page?

    Ok, my walking ticker didn't show up. How do I get it to show up all the time like my weight loss ticker?
