The MFP disease....

ShutupndMovee257

...Mfp crushes, needy women clinging onto guys on here with their "sweetie, honey, hotstuff" shi*.... Gawd this site sucks. it's getting to the point where this site can hardly be considered a fitness site anymore. Now it's more Facebook number 2 now or match.com 2.0...... I wish people would stop treating this like one of those sites and just get to work and stop procrastinating. That's why people don't get results, they are lazy and procrastinate! Folks come on here to chat with their "crushes" instead of working....... I've seen good people, dedicated and motivated people change because of this website. People feel so special when they see their wall is full of other people's comments but I wonder how that makes them feel when they look in the mirror and see that they've gotten no results. I've been on both sides, used to be into all that, the social aspect of it. Wasn't until I stopped procrastinating and got rid of "friends" on here that I got serious. Now I think people are messing with me and sending FR just to piss me off...... why folks? Why?! Workout, eat right, go hard and enjoy a REAL social life with your new confidence......

99% of you don't agree, will get all butt hurt and ask why I bother wroting this if I hate it so much. I love this site! Well the.tools that it offers. It's helped to keep me accountable and helped me lose all my weight and get my results. If used correctly it is an amazing tool! Just wished more people realized that. Also, i want old "pals" to stop sending me FR!

Then just log your food and workouts and stay out of the forums. Or, you can come on here and create a topic "protesting" the social aspect of this site while simultaneously saying LOOK AT ME!!!!!!!!

I completely agree!!!!

So.., I can't have your KIK then?

ummmmmmmm, I think many people are able to enjoy the social aspect of MFP while utilizing the calorie counter to benefit them. Like, a lot.

I can have friends and stay focused.

It's ok, not many people can

Very well put, a lot of weird people hover these forums. They pretend to look for support ) when we all know it's for busting nuts )

How can anybody look for support from someone they've never met and is from another country. Even my brother can't influence the way i act or think, let alone a stranger.
Yeah, bottom line, do as we all do, log in your food+excercises, and stay away from the forums; most people "losing" fat tend to want too much attention and brag about losing 2-3 pounds. Well horay for them.

Everyone is different? The same people who use "talking to their crushes" on MFP as an excuse to not do what they need to do diet wise are the same people that would find something else to distract themselves with if not MFP.

I personally have found very supportive friends on here who have helped both motivate me and given me helpful advice on nutrition and losing weight. Its nice to have a community where I can be open and honest about my struggles, and successes with this journey. I think I'm doing well, and I'm excited to see where I'll be a year from now.

This site as a whole (community, tools, etc) is amazing but like anything else in life there will be people who don't take advantage of what something is offering.

I'd say ignore the people that irritate you. Live and let be. They are their own person and they can do whatever they want. Their journey does not effect yours.

This. You're all worked up over a website? Wow, dude.

UsedToBeHusky

GorillaEsq? Is that you?

Seriously, just put on your profile that you don't want friends and make it public so people can see it. You'll get a lot less requests.

And if you are just using the functional aspect of the site, then why are you even bothering to post in the forums?

Shut up and move, right?

Oh... and I'm pretty sure, no matter what you do, you will still get requests. Unless... you stay out of the forums, which I assume is what you plan to do since you don't want to be social.

MFP's motivational vortex at work..

Doesnt want FRs ........ starts thread to tell everyone NO.

MMMkkkkayyyyyyyyyy

Very astute observations. I find it fascinating how often people complain about things they do, in fact, have control over. Carry on.

fitandskinnygal

What's wrong with having fun while you count calories?!

laurenwhit279

I don't normally get on the forums, but I saw the topic on my home page under the recent topics. Anyway, I don't really care for the social aspect either. It's cool for those that want a place to feel support from others while they're on their weight loss journey, but I like doing it on my own. I only have one friend on here, and she's my best friend in real life. She joined after I raved about this website/app. I just log on and track my food and exercise, and weight when I lose some. Other than that i'm almost never on here.

thesupremeforce

Anyone who manages to get derailed by an internet forum must not have been all that dedicated/motivated in the first place.

nomeejerome

Interesting……
I have experienced positive results from everything that I have learned from MFP, while using my common sense at the same time. There is a really cool part about the forums…..you don't have to participate in them!! Who knew? And you have the option to stay out of the Chit Chat section and all of the threads about crushes, bang etc. It is pretty cool, you may want to try it. Don't worry....I will not be sending a FR.

griff7809

OP,
Really?

You mean to tell us you clicked on the message boards then clicked on chit-chat, fun and games just to give us your opinion of what this site is all about?

Well, thank you for your opinion. Now GTFO.
