You can celebrate your weight loss efforts and stay inspired with the addition of one of these tickers to your myspace, facebook, blog, forum signature or website.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    There are several places to get a weight loss ticker. For this tutorial, I will use Ticker Factory, but there are more places listed in the resource below. For whatever one you choose, log onto the site and follow the step by step instructions.

  2. Step 2

    Go to http://www.tickerfactory.com/ezticker/ticker_designer.php?type=3

  3. Step 3

    Choose your ticker design.

  4. Step 4

    Choose your slider. This is the graphic that will move along the ticker as you lose weight.

  5. Step 5

    Choose a password/pin. Select the weight measurement you would like your ticker to reflect (pounds or kilograms). Enter your starting weight, your current weight and your target weight.

  6. Step 6

    Add your waist measurements and BMI if you wish, these are optional. If you don't wish to display them, just select "not displayed" in the drop down menu. Click next.

  7. Step 7

    Your ticker is done. You can cut and paste the HTML code to add to msn, myspace, blogs and most websites and forums. Click directly on the Add to Facebook link to add it to facebook.

  8. Step 8

    Be sure to bookmark the link provided for your ticker and remember your password so you can update your ticker as your weight loss progresses.
