I have no idea why I was never as active on MPF as I am now. Maybe I wasn't as committed, maybe I was scared ohh no I get it now I was just LAZY!! Notice there was no maybe in that one! I have been using the site again for about a week actually a week today! Previously I would go on look at other peoples stories, see others success stories and sit at my desk and wish I looked like that while eating a freakin candy bar! *face slap* duh idiot no wonder it never worked before!! In the past week I've been fairly good about logging my foods, drinking my water and browsing everyone else's stories. In the past 2 or so days I actually started posting stuff myself and the encouragement from everyone is FANTASTIC. Before I felt like I was in this all by myself but I'm not I have a whole site of great people willing to give advice, tips and encouragement!! So thank you to everyone for the people who share their successes for those of us who still need that little extra push and also for those who share their not so good days!

Thanks for your post today! It really helped me. I am on day 2, and realized I have to be honest with myself if it is going to work. Hve a great day!

Agreed

I created my MFP profile 2 years ago, but was extremely inconsistent in loggin in, etc... Today is my Day 2 of being fully committed... and yes, being active and posting really helps to stay motivated.

I have had the same problem myself. I joined several years ago and am now on Day 2 of reshaping my life.
