nah... it just takes a while to get there. I've been working that one in particular all year, and have been doing yoga for over four years now. (I also had a wall there to help me get into it...) another student in my class can do it in the middle of the room (no wall), and hold it pretty well... it's amazing to watch.

I just want to see if I figured out how to work the avatar stuff...

Hah...I just noticed something under another post that would be more fitting to post here. It's so funny to read the posts now, cause you have Tiffany congratulating someone, and I imagine her with her legs in the air like that saying congratulations and then right after her Stef posted (she's also diving through the air)....

Good avatar...I still don't think I've seen your face, though :lol:

Tiffany's or one you put in? Because Tiffany's looks fine to me--definitely on the larger end than the smaller end.

Sorry. I tried to put an avatar on mine last night. When I checked it, it was tiny. Now I don't see it at all. It was there last night. :huh: It must have disapeared-that's how small it was! I'm notoriously useless with technology. My proudest moment was figuring out my IPod last week. Now I'm working on *bum-bum-bum-buuuuuum* my avatar.

Is it ok to post my attempts here? There may be a few...dozen. I didn't want to start a new topic since Tarnal had one about avatars going already.

Tiffany-love the new avatar. Dang--did it take you a while to learn that pose? Hmmm, maybe when everyone leaves for lunch here at work I'll try it :)

Tiffany, I love your new avatar! The bright colors attract attention!

<-----This is me, by the way!

Jnkmnky, keep trying! This thread is an excellent place to work it out!

Yay! :) Nice to see you.

I also like Tiffany's avatar...bright colors are nicer here than duller, more neutral ones

There's nothing to read here...I'm checking to see if my avatar is working...

Oh, so now my new avatar is on every post I've ever written? :) This avatar isn't special to me, I went to one site, picked the first one that made me laugh and tried to put it up....I didn't expect it to pop up on all my posts and be my "signature" avatar. Well, I'm off to find a more mature one. But I did think this one was funny. :D

Hi Guys:

Can someone lead this computer dense person step by step on putting a picture in the avatar?

Thanks

*First... Make sure your picture is 150 pixels by 150 pixels in size or less. No bigger than 50KB. And in gif .webp .webp or .png format.

*Click on your name on the message board, Click on "Avatar Options" on the top right hand corner between "Edit my Signature" and "Edit my Profile". If it is on your computer just click on "browse" in the grey box at the page or typ in the address if it is on the web and then click "Update Avatar".

*And Voila :)

Thanks for the information Carrie. The part I can't seem to comprehend is how to get the picture out of my pictures and make it go to the avatar. :)

I copy and paste my picture onto my desktop and then I go into the avatar option hit browse, find desktop, and then look for the picture and click on it (you may have to double click, I don't remember) and then click update avatar.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By asaT · Posted

      plant sources of calcium, such as spinach, have calcium bound to oxalates, which is not good. best source of calcium is unfortunately dairy, do you tolerate dairy? fermented dairy like kefir is good and or a little hard cheese. i do eat dairy, i can only take so much dietary restriction and gluten is hard enough! but i guess some people do have bad reactions to it, so different for everyone.

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      By asaT · Posted

      i take b12, folate, b2, b6, glycine, Nac, zinc, vk2 mk4, magnesium, coq10, pqq, tmg, creatine, omega 3, molybdnem (sp) and just started vit d. quite a list i know.  I have high homocysteine (last checked it was 19, but is always high and i finally decided to do something about it) and very low vitamin d, 10. have been opposed to this supp in the past, but going to try it at 5k units a day. having a pth test on friday, which is suspect will be high. my homocysteine has come down to around 9 with 3 weeks of these supplements and expect it to go down further. i also started on estrogen/progesterone. I have osteoporosis too, so that is why the hormones.  anyway, i think all celiacs should have homocysteine checked and treated if needed (easy enough with b vit, tmg). homocysteine very bad thing to be high for a whole host of reasons. all the bad ones, heart attack , stroke, alzi, cancer..... one of the most annoying things about celiacs (and there are so many!) is the weight gain. i guess i stayed thin all those years being undiagnosed because i was under absorbing everything including calories. going gluten-free and the weight gain has been terrible, 30#, but i'm sure a lot more went into that (hip replacement - and years of hip pain leading to inactivity when i was previously very active, probably all related to celiacs, menopause) yada yada. i seemed to lose appetite control, like there was low glp, or leptin or whatever all those hormones are that tell you that you are full and to stop eating. my appetite is immense and i'm never full. i guess decades or more ( i think i have had celiacs since at least my teens - was hospitalized for abdominal pain and diarrhea for which spastic colon was eventually diagnosed and had many episodes of diarrhea/abdominal pain through my 20's. but that symptom seemed to go away and i related it to dairy much more so than gluten. Also my growth was stunted, i'm the only shorty in my family. anyway, decades of malabsorption and maldigestion led to constant hunger, at least thats my theory. then when i started absorbing normally, wham!! FAT!!!

      Insomnia help

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Great advise there I agree with the aniexty part, and the aura migraine has I suffer both, I've also read some great books that have helped I'm going too look the one you mentioned up too thankyou for that, I find a camomile tea just a small one and a gentle wind down before bed has helped me too, I suffer from restless leg syndrome and nerve pain hence I don't always sleep well at the best of times , racing mind catches up I have decorated my whole house in one night in my mind before 🤣 diet changes mindset really help , although I have to say it never just disappears, I find once I came to terms with who I am I managed a lot better  , a misconception is for many to change , that means to heal but that's not always the case , understanding and finding your coping mechanisms are vital tools , it's more productive to find that because there is no failure then no pressure to become something else , it's ok to be sad it's ok to not sleep , it's ok to worry , just try to see it has a journey not a task 🤗

      Supplements for those Diagnosed with Celiac Disease

      You may also need to supplement with B12 as this vitamin is also involved in iron assimilation and is often deficient in long-term undiagnosed celiac disease.
