    Good Luck to us all!

    Just figured this one out...go to: http://www.tickerfactory.com/ezticker/ticker_designer.php

    click on "Exercise and Fitness Ticker"

    enter your password

    under "Your current cumulative value" enter miles, or add to miles already there

    click "next" at bottom of page

    in the box "bbCode" copy this information, then paste it into your signature on MFP...

    to paste something in your signature on MFP, go to "Community", "Signature", then paste into the box

    Hope this helps!

    I walked (and ran) a total of 4.1 miles today. My first 'run' since waaaaay back in college. I used my "Get Running" app on my phone for the first time today and made it all the way through its helpful guidance. The GR run/walk was probably about 30 minutes and about 1.5, I walked another .75 this morning, then another 1.85 tonight. Done and done!

    I was still posting in the old forum - whoops! haha!

    Last night I walked a trail in my neighborhood for a total of 2.99miles....this morning I walked 1.5miles (it's supposed to rain a lot here later on so I figured I'd best get up early and get out there cause I know i won't want to go in the rain later)

    I picked up a few shifts waitressing this week - bet I'd log a lot of miles there!!! I'm just going to count the walks I do on my own for exercise though :)

    Also - I've got a weight loss ticker (from MFP) and a miles ticker from ticer factory ....how do I update these so that the ticker moves? I tried to enter my 2.99 last night but couldn't get it going.... thanks for any tips!

    Have a great day everyone!

    I'm always behind haha, I just joined, hope that's ok! I went to the doctor yesterday so I have an accurate start weight. I'm going to Mexico the week before Halloween so I definitely need to get my *kitten* in shape!

    ...why did somebody edit my entry?? They changed my starting weight!!
    WHAT SHOULD MY STARTING WEIGHT BE?
    Well, that's up to you! It can either be your current weight now, or what your weight is on Monday.
    I actually wanted it to be last Monday's weight. :/

    Maybe we should change "Week 1, Week 2..." on the top of the spreadsheet to the actual weigh-in dates...?? IDK, it's sort of confusing. Because this *is* Week 1, so I entered my Week 1 weight. Does that make sense?

    Another mile today. So 2.5 miles so far. Not a lot, but I'm doing my best to fit walking in with my other workouts.

    we were aloud to use our last week weights as our start ones but the contest still didn't START untill yesterday, so actualy the week we are on now is week 1 making the Monday after every week to post how we did
