    ive been thinking the same thing - and it would be too hard to hold it in numerous places.

    Ive actually been thinking of starting an MFP SYDNEY USERS GROUP, where we can get together to train and support each other face to face!

    I love this idea too! I think it would be totally awesome to be able to have everyone meet in person, and it's definitely something I would love to do at some point. Unfortunately, I hate to rain on this parade, but as far as an "official" MFP event goes, it's probably not going to happen this year. We are just TOTALLY swamped, and organizing something like this would be a big effort. That having been said, I really really think this would be a great event and would love to do it, so we'll definitely keep it on our to-do list. If the site keeps growing, maybe we can eventually hire someone who's sole job would be to organize the event.

    Anyways, thanks for the suggestion! if you guys end up having some kind of unofficial MFP event, definitely let me know!


    Love the idea!!!

    What about a MFP cruise? A year or so away? It would give everyone time and motivation to get in shape and save some money. My church did a cruise, it was pretty reasonable pricewise. It really was, and we didn't have half the number of people interested as on here. I've actually thought about this alot, just never thought to post about it. I would totally be motivated to whip myself into gear for a cruise, plus to meet with my MFP buddies! But any other way of meeting would be pretty sweet too. I've just never been on a cruise.

    My vote is for Vegas as well. I'm not a gambling person, but it's inexpensive, has loads of entertainment and dining options too. Let's do it!

    Vegas would help keep the costs down for most folks I think and I'm sure we could find an 'older' place that would have room for a large group and be happy to have us and we could use their banquet facilities and other ammenities.
