    I so understand what you are going through.
    I'm constantly checking and it's gotten worse for me since we've started the runner's club!!

    I have no words of advice, I'm in the same boat. :grumble:

    Time to stage an intervention.

    Me: 'Hello, my name is Jeremy, and I am an MFP-a-holic.'


    Everyone: 'Hi Jeremy'

    :ohwell: :frown: :cry: :sad:

    I was wondering about why I liked this site so much myself this morning. and I figured it out.
    Sometimes the best friends are ones that have a like goal.
    Face it, Everyone here has a like goal. Health Fittness and that slimmer bod.
    NEVER have I seen so much support and goal boosting from any other site or group.
    Here you have the benifit of a WORLD of information and experiance.
    And in MINUTES!
    If you have a problem, POST IT and wait a second for someone to read it. Night or day 24 hours a day 7 days a week 365 days a year.
    Try that with your Weight Watcher person and see if they are so happy to e-mail you or get a call from you at 3:00 in the AM
    (Mind you I am not saying anything bad against Weight Watchers.)
    If you have a recipie question, Or like yesterday One person posted they had a cucumber and wanted to know what they could to do with it for dinner that evening. DId you happen to see the amount of responses they got???
    Some of us have found a number of friends on this site Ones that we will never lose or forget.
    So tell me again, Why do you think something is wrong with you? There is nothing wrong with you. Everyone should have a group of friends as many in number and as diverse.

    I am also addicted. The only time I am not logged on is when I'm asleep, or out and about. I am on all day at work and whenever I'm home. I love this site.:laugh:

    I agree to ALL OF THE ABOVE!!!

    I started officially in January, the day after my SLIM husband had a heart attack and found he needed heart by-pass surgery all at the age of 52....YIKES.

    After all of my years.....45 of them being overweight, that was enough to get me back on the weight loss train yet again. This website has been the best thing that has happened to me in quite awhile.
    The biggest difference......this time I am doing it just as much for my own health as I am to just look better.

    I am happy to report.......49.5 pounds since Jan 12th, 2008.....

    THAT DARN HALF OF POUND>>>>ha ha!

    Long story longer.....thanks for all the support!!!!
