  • How do I add or edit the weight loss ticker, profile picture and/or a signature to my message board posts?
    You'll need to create a SparkPage to add these to your message board signatures.

  1. 1. Go to the SparkPages tab.
  2. 2. Click Create a New SparkPage (or View Your SparkPage, then Edit SparkPage if you already have one).
  3. 3. Complete the information for the title and description of your SparkPage. Your SparkPage can also be used as a personal homepage to share information about yourself with other members. If you don't want to have your SparkPage available to others, you can check the box to keep your page private (offline).
  4. 4. Scroll down to the bottom of the page to see the weight loss ticker.
  5. 5. Check the box that says "Yes, show my weight loss ticker."
  6. 6. Put in your starting weight and goal weight. Please note that your current weight on your ticker will update automatically when you weigh in, but we will not update your ticker starting and goal weight if you change your goals on your program; you'll need to update starting and goal weight on your SparkPage.
  7. 7. Select your ticker icon.
  8. 8. Select your ticker background.
  9. 9. Click "Save Changes" at the bottom or top of the page.


  10. To edit your ticker, scroll down the page to your ticker, make any necessary changes, and click Save Changes at the top or bottom of the page.

  11. To add your profile picture, go to the box at the bottom right of your page labeled “Profile Image”.
  12. Click “change this image”. You can select a picture from your gallery or click “browse” at the bottom of the page to find another picture on your computer to upload.
  13. Click "Save Changes" at the bottom or top of the page.

  14. To enter text for your signature, enter it in the "Personal Signature" box on the right side of the page.
  15. Click "Save Changes" at the bottom or top of the page.

Chef Meg's Zucchini Muffins

These muffins are very filling!

The whole wheat flour makes for a dense muffin, which I like. You only need to eat one! If you want a lighter muffin try using whole wheat pastry flour, which is more finely ground and available in the bulk bins at larger grocery stores.
