A stupid question perhaps; how do I change my username?

When I joined the site, I just used my first name's initial and last name. Now I don't have a cool username like Fitness_Chick or TamTastic!

I don't want to lose all of my recorded information, but I can't find how to change my username without signing up again.

Any help?

    click on the my Home tab,
    Underneath it you will see settings, click on settings and go to change username, you can only do it once though.

    That's a great question...

    Go to the tab "My Home"

    under the tabs you'll see "settings"

    click on "settings" and you see a choice that says, "change user name"

    I think you can change your user name only once, so be really sure before you do it

    Good luck:bigsmile:

    Thank you both for the quick response! I will change it soon!
