Here is a quick guide I just created on changing your email.

1. First step is to open your profile and head to ; ACCOUNT RELATED SETTINGS

2. Next you click on the text box where you have your email,  clear the old email and fill in your new email.

3. Fill in your current password in the box as shown below then click on change profile. You email should be updated.

The 2FA code isn't sent to your email. You have to import the 32 character secret key into an application like Google Authenticator and the app will generate a code for you. Just follow the instructions in the reply above and enter the 2FA code from authenticator app and it should change your email address. You will still generate valid 2FA codes even if you change your email address.

If you still access to your account, you can change your email address without access to your email address used to register this account.

I believe you still have access to your account because if you don't, you could not log in this account and make this thread.

Use something like yourUserName@invalid.bitcointalk.org; don't use a random nonsense email like y@x.com, since somebody might create that domain/email. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5478824.0)
