    Originally I came strictly to log food and exercise...then I discovered the social aspect. MfP is so much better with both!

    My reason too, plus I had to get serious about dropping the 4th baby weight.

    I'd heard good things about the site and since I'm trying to lose just under half of myself before going to a convention in July 2014, I figured that I can use all the help I can get! :)

    I have a Fitbit Flex and they suggested some apps, which MyFitnessPal was one of them :smile:

    I bought a scale.... no really, I had not owned a scale in about 2 years, but when I felt like I was putting on weight I went out and bought one. That had me starting a healthier routine to lose weight. During that process I started googleing calories in the foods I ate and the MFP site popped up. It was love at first log-in :love:

    I stay here for the continued tracking and weight loss. And the awesome friends I have made and shameless flirtations I partake in make it so much fun!

    A scale is like a toilet plunger. Every home has one, whether you use it or not.

    Yep. I came to lose a few pounds, track food and exercise. I was on here for two years before I discovered the message boards.

    Love the flirting and snark. My friends keep me entertained, both through their funny posts, hot pics and sincere encouragement.

    A toilet plunger is the first thing you should buy when you get a place. You don't want to need a plunger and not have one!

    I was looking for an online calorie counter. Found it, along with so much more!

    I joined a gym first and had no idea what I was gonna do for watching my calories and a friend told me about MFP almost 1 year ago and I've been hooked ever since!

    The ticker! I don't know why, but I just love seeing a simple visual of progress. The ticker's why I came, but I stay for the socializing. So many kind, wonderful, motivated people here.
