So i was wondering if anyone is as obsessed with this site as i am. In the last 2 weeks if i am not at the gym or at work, im on this site looking at new recipes, reading about exercise techniques and looking at progress pics. I LOVE this site! i have found myself being obsessed. i actually havent gotten on facebook in days to checkup on friends cause id rather be on here. Just wondering if anyone else is in this boat or am i just a weirdo? lol:laugh:

    Nope...no weirdo...unless I am one too?!!? :frown: Totally obsessed. I can't help it. I learn so much. And get to peruse around. It's too interesting not to be on here! I'm a little better on weekend but even then the last thing I do for the night is....check MFP!

    Haha I have only been on here for a week and I am already obsessed. I stay logged into it while I am at work and it opens automatically when I am at home. :)

    Welcome to the club. We have our MFP Anonymous meetings every Wednesday night at 6:30 in the basement of the town hall. Celery, almonds and protein shakes are provided. :smile:

    I have a desk job all day and reading stories and recipes and throwing my 2 cents in is what keeps me motivated. And I actually have facebook up while im on here too.....lol. Technology has taken over our lives.

    I open this is the morning before my work email and way before Facebook! Just feeling like I'm not the only one that's working hard to change things makes this journey a whole lot easier!

    You are not alone! None of us are! And that's why we're all obsessed, too :blushing:
  • Yup, I'm obsessed too.... BUT....

    I wonder how many people are TOO obsessed and not getting off their butts to exercise!!! Something to think about when we all are just sitting around obsessing....

    Add me to that list. I am always here
  • I was getting obsessed and realized that if I got my butt up off the PC and spent that time exercising, I could be having "biggest loser results" instead of biggest loser result dreams
