Try going without your computer. For the last two weeks my computer/dish hookup has been messing up and I have been freaking out. WHY? Because this site is addicting !! I couldn't access this site from home and I was so frustrated I was just about jumping up and down mad. I swear my husband was trying to find reasons not to be around because I would try this or that to make the computer hookup work and when it didn't I would sulk. I hate to say but I did. You know that is kind of scary. So who cares about the scale at this point, I just wanted to log my food and talk to someone if I needed to. Sorry I just needed to vent and then yell HOORAY because I have my site back. Oh by the way I now have to go get on the scale and see what happened weight wise while I was freaking out. LOL~Karen

    That's so funny! I know I am always hopping on to log my foods as soon as I walk in the house. It's an addiction! But, I guess it's better to have an addiction to logging food and MFP than to food!!! :)

    lol, impossible for me. Computers are my life, without them I have no job...

    I have gone a week without them though, as a matter of fact I do so every year. It's kinda nice usually, but I start to jones for my email after 3 or 4 days.

    Yeah speaking of which I guess e-mail is the next place I'm heading. LOL It's funny but if I know computer is working and so is the internet I can leave it until the end of the day and then plunk everything in but when I knew I couldn't use it I was way too emotional about it. But I don't think I want a challenge about not using this site lol, I might gain it all back. See ya all later. I set time limits for it so I get other things done.:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
